Another option for the Canal Tour is to take the public transport water busses... they have an %26quot;inside%26quot; if the weather is inclement, and if it%26#39;s sunny, the afterdeck is great. And their %26quot;stops%26quot; are pretty much the same as the Canal Tour.





On the other hand, the Canal Tour (not the Netto Boats and not the public harbor buses) gives you a guide who points out sights along the way.




|||



There a guides on the Nettoboates too. Normally they speak in both Danish, english and german.




|||



I probably should have said %26quot;competent guide.%26quot; Perhaps they have upgraded. The last time I took a Netto boat, the ticket collector, who sometimes spoke over the mike, was asked when Christiansborg Palace was built. She just shrugged and said %26quot;I dunno, 1600s I guess...%26quot;




|||



Well - it was built in the 1600 was%26#39;nt it?? Lol





I%26#39;ve been on the canaltour 3 times - 2 times with the %26quot;Netto%26quot;-boates and 1 time with the expensive alternative. Maybe I%26#39;ve just been lucky those times, I don%26#39;t know, but in those cases the Netto-guides was fully as competent as the the other guide was...





The guides on the Netto-boates are probably, in many cases, uni-students that have a sparetime- or holidayjob, where the others probably are %26quot;proffesional%26quot; guides(with a very limited course).



In most cases one will be just as good as the other - but that%26#39;s just my own experience.

No, it was started in 1907 and finished in 1928. It%26#39;s the third palace on the same site, and looks nothing like the one before it -- which was started in 1803, by the way.





You will learn that on the Canal Boat tour; you may or may not on the Netto Boat tour.





If you want to learn anything on your canal trip in Copenhagen, it is worth spending a little more for a knowledgeable guide.
