Our tour guide was amazing, our group really enjoyed it! Would highly recommend this tour for those who have no problems walking a lot and embracing the weather too.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thanks for the great review despite the typical Hamburg weather. If groups are not such good walkers, we can also reduce the mileage. ;-)

Great tour!

Maureen was awesome

Debra_S, Oct 2023

Maureen was wonderful! We had a hard time finding the meeting place and she waited for us. We had a couple of people that were struggling to keep up with all of the walking, so she modified the tour to meet our needs! She was simply delightful!

Hamburg on foot!

Rodrigo_G, Jun 2023

Customized Travel

Patricia_G, Jul 2022

George showed me places I would not have found on my own. He knows his history. He quickly ascertained my interests and customized the tour. He gave suggestions on what to once we parted. Assisted with ticketing and being sure I knew how to get back to my hotel afterwards A+

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Thank you very much for your very good review. We are always happy if our guests are happy!

This was an amazing private guided...

Gregory B, Jul 2017

This was an amazing private guided walking tour. I stayed at the Radisson Blu Hamburg and the tour started and stopped at the hotel given is great location. The tour was at a reasonable pace and we were able to see most sites in downtown Hamburg. The Operat House was outstanding but all aspects of the tour were great, especially little side trips to see more of the original Hamburg. I received a great history of Hamburg as part of the tour. My tour guide was Alexander - he was a great companion with a great sense of humor. We had fun.
