Puch Maxi, Tomos and Hanstholm belong together like salt and sea. Hop on a classic moped, buckle your helmet and feel the freedom as you trudge through the harbour with the wind in your face and a local guide in front.
On the tour you will get close to the real harbour life in Hanstholm. You drive past wharves, cutters and raw industry and hear stories about the harbour, local nicknames and life out here, where the wind always has a meaning. The tour also passes the iconic lighthouse, where the view opens up over not only the harbour, but also the National Park and the North Sea. It is an experience with both atmosphere, open spaces and West Jutland reality.
The tour is a guided moped experience through Hanstholm, focusing on the harbour, the views, the local stories and the special culture that belongs to the place. You get:

• communication equipment in the helmet so you can hear the guide's stories along the way
