Asser led me around Copenhagen on a foldable bike for the architecture tour. We saw things that were "must sees" in the guide book and amazing sights that I would have never found on my own. I got an excellent sense of the city - both old and new architectural gems. He also sent me the route we took so that I can return to some of the places and explore more.

My two friends and I greatly enjoyed our time with Asser, who is the company's owner and led our tour. In addition to being a very well versed in the history of the city and county, he is also and an architect. Our tour was just us three and we enjoyed learning about the "real" Copenhagen from Asser. He English was perfect and easy to understand. We were surprised by the bikes, as we used a very new design that can fold up for easy transport on public transportation. The bike was unusual to ride at first, but we rapidly adjusted and I found it to be comfortable and nimble for navigating through the city streets. After the ride, he gave us an excellent lunch suggestion, and helped us decide how to spend our afternoon. This is the real deal and a great bargain.
We rode bikes for 3 hours with Asser and saw Copenhagen streets, neighborhoods and sights from 'an architect's view.' Really enjoyed being "off the beaten path" and the mix of history, culture and architecture that was woven into the dialogue. Highly recommend!
