Apply as a Host

We are looking for people who truly know their city, not just the places but the feeling, the vibe and the culture. If you’ve lived here for many years and you love sharing local stories, hidden gems and the everyday magic of the neighborhoods, we’d love to hear from you.

Use the message field to tell us why you’d be a great host. If you have additional skills that could support a young, fast-growing business such as bookkeeping, marketing, social media, photography, video or anything else, please include them. We value people who want to grow with us and help shape something special.

A few points for what would be great to here about you:

• Languages means the languages you speak fluently and feel fully comfortable guiding in.
• Availability refers to when you are generally available to guide
• Years a Local tells us how long you have been living in the city.
• Years of Experience refers to any previous guiding or hospitality experience you may have.
• Relevant Social Media Following refers to any travel- or tourism-related following you might have on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube etc.
• Video application is an opportunity to showcase your communication style, alternatively add a link to a video to the message.

Are you a passionate Copenhagener with a flair for storytelling?
We’re looking for enthusiastic guides to lead cultural and historical walking tours in Copenhagen – always with a twinkle in the eye and a personal touch.

Who are we?
Go Like a Local is a new initiative creating unique and authentic experiences in Copenhagen. At the same time, we’re building a growing community for internationals, where we host social gatherings and cultural experiences. Our guides are a key part of this journey.

We’ll soon expand to other locations around Copenhagen – including Malmö, Helsingør, Helsingborg, and more in the future – so there may also be opportunities to guide in those cities.

• You love the city and its history – and you’re able to bring it to life in an engaging and entertaining way.
• You speak fluent English – and ideally another language (German, Spanish, or similar).
• You have experience as a guide, storyteller, or communicator – ideally with guide certification.
• You’re looking for a flexible side job with an hourly wage.

What do we offer?

• The chance to lead exciting and original tours in Copenhagen – and soon Malmö, Helsingør, Helsingborg, and more.
• An hourly wage with the opportunity to increase, and flexible hours: you tell us when you can work.
• A strong sense of community: We have a base on Blågårdsgade where guides and community members meet.

Be part of something bigger
We’re not just looking for guides – we’re looking for people who want to be part of a vibrant community, sharing knowledge, experiences, and building something unique together.

We look forward to hearing from you!
