Sebastian was a very good guide, aware of our age dynamic ie one adult and one 15 year old, and kept us both interested. Do not miss it as it would be so easy to walk around Hamburg and miss a lot of intersting facts and sights
A really inspiring tour of Hamburg. I appreciated Sebastien's enthusiasm and pride for its city- just stunning despite the freezing rain!
Wonderful guided tour with Almut, which led us through the old town of Hamburg with a lot of charm and knowledge. Highly recommended.
