Top Hamburg Viator Private Guides

Explore Hamburg's Outer Alster Lake aboard a two-masted wooden sailboat and discover the appeal of old-style sailing as you glide past some of the city's sights. Use your time on deck to help set the sails, or leave the boat in the hands of your experienced captain and instead focus on the view: Hamburg City Hall and St. Michaelis Church are among the sights.

Explore the city of Hamburg, Germany with a 1-hour, small-group sunset cruise along the Alster. Enjoy a panoramic view of Hamburg from the lake, a right tributary of the Elbe River. See green parks, plenty of old buildings, some of the biggest churches in Hamburg, plus Alster fountain and the Elbphilharmonie, a new concert hall in the HafenCity quarter, in the distance. Relax, enjoy a refreshing beverage on board and admire the scenic view.

Explore one of Hamburg’s most historic—and sordid—areas on a nighttime walking tour of the Reeperbahn. The city’s infamous red-light district (now also home to popular bars, clubs, and other nightlife destinations), the Reeperbahn comes alive after dark. Led by your guide, discover a Beatles memorial, the seedy Herbertstraße, and other local landmarks. As you go, learn about the characters who have frequented the area, and discover its unique history.
