Working at
Copenhagen Family Tours

Why? Because families visiting Copenhagen deserve a tailored kids-friendly guided tour by locals, where they can feel like a local and have a unique experience.How? We design tours that derive in each families constellation (number/ ages) and the family members interests. The cargo bike is the unique selling point.What? We guide the families, give them bike instructions so that they are able to do sightseeing together, we give convenient, fast and fun transport with wind in the hair.  Founder: MaikeAge: 35Work interests: business development, good services for tourists, strategic thinking, creative crazy thinking, map-nerd, I want an international work environment, since diversity is the prerequisite to innovation and developmentWhy I founded familiytours.dk: Because there are only few offers for families when travelling around. I know the special needs of kids and parents when travelling. They shouldn't be stuffed on a bus where boring adults tell them about historical facts (no offense, just the kids perspective). The cargo bike is a local symbol of freedom, healthy and sustainable lifestyle and maybe part of the secret why Danes are one of the happiest nations.
