Essential

It is another way to know the city, it is worth doing. When you go through canals you see the buildings from another perspective and also it is not very long, it is done in an hour or so

Private walking tour

The private walking tour was unsatisfactory. Guide was hard to understand and didn't volunteer info unless we asked. Canal tour and guide were exceptional.

Not worth the money and likely a scam

The trip was very overpriced compared to the poor quality of the private walking tour and mediocre canal tour. Our guide did not speak English well and also was not from Denmark so his historical knowledge was shallow and difficult to follow. The canal tour was on a boat of ~80 tourists and in English and German. It definitely cost a lot less than what we paid up front as part of our package. Overall I believe we were scammed.
