We started Lost with a Local because we love meeting locals when we travel. To us, there’s nothing worse than joining a massive tour where 50 people shuffle behind a non-local guide, holding up a bright umbrella, dressed in a uniform, and reading from a script they got from their boss. That’s just not how we want to experience a city—so why should you?

Instead, we offer something different: small, personal, and fun tours that feel like exploring with a local friend. No stiff presentations, no rehearsed lines—just real stories, hidden gems, and an authentic experience of Copenhagen. Our guides are handpicked locals who are outgoing, funny, and truly know their neighborhoods inside and out. They don’t just show you the city; they bring it to life.

What makes our tours special? There are no physical signs that our guide is a tour guide—no matching outfits, no name tags, no scripts. We keep things spontaneous, relaxed, and engaging. Whether you’re discovering Copenhagen’s alternative side in Christiania, tasting Danish pastries, or just wandering through charming backstreets, you’ll feel like you’re experiencing the city with a local friend.

Since 2024, we’ve guided over 2,000 travelers through the city, showing them a side of Copenhagen they wouldn’t find on their own. Want to experience it for yourself? Let’s get lost together!
