Copenhagen: Guided Party Pub Crawl with 4 Shots and 1 Drink
Book on GetYourGuide →Operated by Pub Crawl Copenhagen · Bookable on GetYourGuide
Copenhagen night, handled for you. This guided party crawl stacks four free shots at the first stops and finishes with one included drink, plus your guide snaps photos along the way. I like how the guides keep the group moving and make solo travelers feel part of the night. I also like the mix of smaller pubs early and bigger energy at the end. One drawback to plan for: you’ll walk between venues, and some of the early bars can feel tight.
You start inside Barcelona Bar, so you don’t waste time hunting for a meeting spot. The whole thing runs about 4 hours, and it runs in any weather. If you hate crowds or prefer a quiet drink, this is not that kind of outing, even though the group vibe is the point.

Key Takeaways Before You Go

- Four included shots across the first four bars so you’re not doing math in a menu.
- One included drink at the last venue, which helps you pace the night without overspending early.
- Meeting inside Barcelona Bar (not out front), which makes it easier to join fast.
- Weekend vs weekday ending: Old Irish Pub by Tivoli on weekends, Proud Mary’s on weekdays.
- Photos during the crawl so you’re not stuck asking strangers to take your picture.
- Guides with real follow-through like Remy/Remi and UV, known for keeping people included.
Viking-Style Night Out in Copenhagen: What the Crawl Is Really Like

This is a party-focused Copenhagen pub crawl built around one simple idea: you’ll get to several venues without having to plan the route or guess which bar is worth it. You show up, meet your guide, and then the night moves like a checklist: shots first, then a final drink, then the late-night pull.
Why it works for many people is the structure. You’re given a clear starting point, a set duration, and included drinks that reduce decision fatigue. That matters in Copenhagen, where nightlife can be scattered, and one extra costly round can derail your budget fast.
The other big factor is group energy. The guides are repeatedly praised for bringing momentum and making sure the group doesn’t splinter too early. Names that pop up again and again include Remy/Remi and UV (Yuvraj), plus hosts like Dani, Eduardo, Julian, Meg, and Nomi. Different guides, same goal: keep the night fun, social, and moving.

Barcelona Bar: Your Easy Starting Line (and Why It Matters)

Your meeting point is inside Barcelona Bar every night the crawl runs. That sounds small, but it’s actually a big deal on a busy nightlife street. If you meet out front, you’ll spend time scanning doors and guessing which group is yours. Meeting inside cuts that stress fast.
From the first stop, you can expect the guide to set the tone and start photo-taking as the group gathers. One review even calls out how guides keep people included, which is exactly what you want when you’re traveling solo. It’s not just about drinking; it’s also about feeling oriented in a new city at night.
Also, pack the basics. The crawl requires a passport or ID card. Denmark nightlife venues can be strict about age checks, and the crawl’s target age range is 18 to 35. You’re welcome if you’re older, but this is still built as an adult party night.
Four Free Shots Across Four Bars: How the Night Builds Momentum

The core format is straightforward. After meeting your guide at Barcelona Bar, you head to four additional venues. At each of the first four bars, you get a free shot. Then at the last venue you get one drink (or beer).
That “four shots in a row” setup does two useful things for you:
1) It creates a rhythm, so you always know what’s next.
2) It helps you control the budget. You already know what you’ll get included before you start adding extras.
What you’ll likely notice at the early venues is variety—and sometimes a squeeze. Some of the first bars are described as smaller, with limited space to move around. That can be fine if you’re in a social mood, but if you need elbow room, arrive with patience.
You should also expect some venue activity. Several accounts mention games and karaoke as part of the fun at later stops. One person even notes a jazz bar with live band energy underneath, which hints that the nightlife scene you’ll see isn’t only generic pub hopping. It’s meant to feel like you’re jumping into the city’s best party moments, not just walking from door to door.
The Walk Between Venues: A Real Consideration (Not Just a Detail)

You do need comfortable shoes. This crawl includes walking time between stops, and it’s part of the experience rather than a side note. One review flat-out says the walk is noticeable, but that it doesn’t matter much once you’re having a good night.
Still, it’s smart to plan for your legs and your headspace:
- Wear shoes you can stand in for hours.
- Bring a layer. The tour runs regardless of weather, so you may deal with wind or rain.
- Eat before you meet. Four shots happen fast.
If you’re the type who wants zero movement and prefers one bar all night, you’ll likely feel a bit “on the go.” But if you like meeting people and letting the evening unfold, the walking is often what keeps the group bonding.
One more practical caution: a couple of people mention losing the group after the final stop. That doesn’t mean the tour is poorly run. It just means when the night ends, you’ll want to stay close to the guide so you don’t end up wandering after the last venue.
Weekdays vs Weekends Ending Near Tivoli: Proud Mary’s or Old Irish Pub

This is one of the more helpful parts of the crawl: your ending point changes depending on the day.
- On weekdays, the tour ends at Proud Mary’s Pub.
- On weekends, it ends at the Old Irish Pub next to Tivoli.
That difference affects the vibe of your finale. On weekends, ending next to Tivoli can put you in a lively zone with lots going on, even before you factor in the party atmosphere inside. On weekdays, Proud Mary’s is the late-night target when the rest of the week is still in swing.
There’s also a bonus weekend perk: free coatcheck at the last stop on weekends. If you’re visiting in colder months, that small included service can be worth it just for convenience.
Some people also mention that late-night stops can cluster near major landmarks like Town Hall, which means you’re not constantly crossing the whole city. It’s still walking, but it tends to keep you within a manageable nightlife area.
Guides, Group Mood, and Photos: The Part You’ll Actually Remember

The guides are the engine of this crawl, and they come up again and again in the feedback pattern. The most praised traits are pretty consistent: guides feel welcoming, they keep everyone included, and they guide the energy rather than just following a script.
You’ll also see a recurring theme about photos. The guide takes photos throughout the night so you don’t have to spend the entire evening behind your phone. That’s especially helpful for groups where not everyone always lines up well for pictures.
Another practical plus: many accounts describe guides as proactive, friendly, and good at keeping people together. One review mentions guides taking care of the group and ensuring no one is left behind at each step. That reduces the risk that you’ll join a fun group for the first bar and then get separated at the second.
If you like social nights where you can meet new people from different countries, this format is built for that. Several comments highlight how easily solo travelers connect, and how the group mood stays positive as the night goes from bar to bar.
Price and Included Drinks: Is $47 a Good Deal in Copenhagen?

At $47 per person for about 4 hours, the value comes from what’s included, not from the walking tour part. Here’s the practical math of why this works:
- You’re getting 4 free shots across the first four venues.
- You’re getting one included drink or beer at the last stop.
- You get guide(s), photos during the crawl, and (on weekends) free coatcheck at the final location.
In Copenhagen, drinks aren’t cheap. Even if you never buy another extra round, the included drinks alone help make the total cost feel more predictable than a self-guided night out. If you do buy extras, you still have a known baseline cost for the crawl.
So who should consider it? You’ll get the best value if you:
- Want an organized nightlife plan without researching every bar.
- Plan to drink more than once anyway.
- Like the social “everyone’s in this together” style.
If you’re the type who only wants one drink the whole night, the included shots might push you into drinking more than you planned. In that case, you may feel pressure from the structure. You don’t have to match the pace, but the crawl is designed around party momentum.
What to Bring, When to Wear, and How to Stay With the Group

This is a party crawl, so your best prep is simple and practical.
Bring:
- Passport or ID card (required)
- A layer for weather since the tour runs in any conditions
- Comfortable shoes for the walk between venues
Wear:
- Something you can move in. You’ll likely stand, mingle, and shift from small bar spaces to larger late-night rooms.
And do this during the tour:
- Pay attention at the first meeting inside Barcelona Bar.
- Stay close when the group transitions to the next venue.
- When you reach the final stop, decide ahead of time whether you’ll head home with the group or keep partying on your own. A few people mention losing the guides after the last place, and it’s usually a timing issue, not a problem with the hosts.
Should You Book This Copenhagen Pub Crawl?

Book it if you want a guided, high-energy Copenhagen night where you don’t have to plan stops, you get included shots and a drink, and you’re open to meeting people. It’s a great fit for solo travelers, small groups, or anyone who wants nightlife with structure.
Skip it (or think twice) if you prefer quiet evenings, dislike crowds, or you’re not comfortable walking and moving between venues in the cold. Also, if you’re older and easily overwhelmed by party energy, go in with realistic expectations: the recommended age range is 18 to 35, and the vibe is meant to be lively.
If you like the idea of a party route with photos, friendly hosts, and a clear ending near Tivoli on weekends, this is one of the more straightforward ways to enjoy Copenhagen nightlife without second-guessing yourself all night.
