Itinerary
We'll start out by getting to know each other at le Kiosk, a kiosk that's become famous among the students of Cologne. Grab your first beer and we'll go from there.
We'll stop by outside this popular bar for a chance at street food, games, new friends and more.
Another famous spot for locals, another beer, more fun. You get the idea right? Oh, and a round of a local favorite Schnapps.
Here we'll grab out next round of Kölsch and continue our night of drinking while seeing a different type of Kiosk entirely.
We'll enjoy our second to last beer, spend some time in the beautiful park nearby, and point out a few preferred bars and beer gardens in the area. Games and more to follow.
Here, we'll end the night with another round of our favorite beers, and spend some more time together with locals all around as the sun sets in one of Cologne's most popular student areas. We'll finish off our nightly games, announce some winners and hand out your hard-earned prizes!

We had a brilliant time with our lovely guide. I can't remember her name, but it was a lovely Spanish lady who met her German partner and moved to the city. She was there from 7pm and we found her straight away. We were joined by three German folks (one local, two visitors) and we had a whale of a time playing games and drinking at some of the kiosks over different parts of the city. We loved this activity as a way to explore the local kiosk culture and go to different areas we might not have found otherwise. It turns out I'm not very good at beer pong, but ended up being part of the winning team thanks to my scavenger hunt skills. I would recommend this tour for first time visitors to the city to learn about kiosk culture and learn what life is like in the city.
It was a fun round with nice people. Recommendation for everyone. Join in!
Very nice very very very nice 😄😄😄😄😄 so good best man Alex love this guy seriously !!!!!!!!! Honestly I loved it so much
A great tour through the city while learning its history, culture and some really interesting fun facts! Thanks a lot for the experience.
I was booked on the 19:10 tour. I arrived at the meeting point at 19:04. I waited and waited, nobody came. At 19:16 I emailed Freewalk. The 1st reply said the tour was 19:00 and probably had left. I pointed out that both the website & confirmation email said 19:10. They then tried for 30 minutes to contact the guide (I assume they are freelance). They couldn't get a response. I still don't know if they did leave early or whether there wasn't any others so didn't show. Either way I wasted a considerable amount of time of my holiday travelling across town and trying to resolve this.
Dear Guest: We are sorry to hear about your experience. Our guide was there at the meeting point in time and you are right to express that we had troubles reaching him after you got in touch with us. However, he did call you to try to reach you, but he didn't get any answer. He tried his best trying to get everybody for the tour; however, he wasn't able to find you either. Once again, we apologize profusely for this experience as he value our guests' time and enjoyment of the city. Best regards, Freewalk Cologne
Good time with an eclectic group. We had a great time touring the neighbourhood “, meeting locals, trying beers, playing games and completing a scavenger hunt.
We really enjoyed the Kiosk Crawl, and Ronja was a great guide. There was plenty fun and games, though I think it would have worked better with a larger group. There were only 6 of us, including the guide; it was still fun, but could have been even better with a few more taking part. Not much anyone can do about that though, it just depends how many people book each time.
Thanks so much for joining! We're glad you could enjoy the tour! No mater what Ronja and our other Kiosk Guides know how to make the tour as enjoyable as possible no matter the size (but we'll never complain about more bookings 😅)
Beautiful discovery of Kiosk/Späti with Rigel who not only guided us, but also explained, fed anecdotes, and had fun with small games. Very good atmosphere.
Very good tour. Very fun, friendly, it is a very bacchanalian experience to meet more people, it is quite an experience
I had one night in Cologne and don't know anyone in the city, so I booked the Kiosk Crawl to get some local experience and meet some people. In the end, it was just me and the guide, Ronja (thanks to a pretty steady downpour of rain all day). Though we were just a dynamic duo, we had a blast--played games, drank beers, chatted with locals. Along the way, Ronja offered great tips and facts about the city. All in all, it was a perfect way to get to know Cologne and its culture better, and Ronja was an absolute champion. If her bosses read this, give her a raise! And if you're reading this to decide whether or not to book it, just do it. You won't regret it.
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review and joining in the first place! We're so happy you could enjoy the tour with us.
