Our Fleet and Sustainability

Over 500,000 guests experience Copenhagen from the water with us every year, making Canal Tours Copenhagen one of Denmark’s most popular attractions. Our fleet includes both open canal boats, covered canal boats, and electric boats.

Our canal boats are named after Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved characters such as Tinsoldaten (The Steadfast Tin Soldier), Klods-Hans (Clumsy Hans), Prinsessen på Ærten (The Princess and the Pea), and Den Lille Havfrue (The Little Mermaid), adding a bit of magic to every tour.

Our dedicated wharf team maintains and upgrades our boats for comfort, accessibility, and safety. Skilled captains and guides bring Copenhagen’s history to life on every journey. Find out more about our fleet.

Stromma Copenhagen’s goal is to be emission-free by 2040. We converted our first canal boat in 2009, the second in 2012, and are now upgrading the rest. Find out more about our sustainability commitment.
