Jan was excellent in content and funny too!
We did two free tours in Hamburg with Jan, and honestly, it was outstanding — simply unbeatable. The tours were engaging, well-paced, never overwhelming, with touches of humor and history shared by a local. Highly recommended.
Hola Enzo, gracias por tantos elogios. La verdad que yo también la pasé muy bien y vamos a ser honestos, también depende un poco de la gente que te acompaña. Si bien el grupo fue chico hubo muy buena onda y en estos casos disfruto mucho más todavia de lo que hago. Espero verte de nuevo, tal vez en otro de nuestros tours. Un saludo desde el frio Jan de hamburgoapie.de
This part of the city is very nice and very interesting, we recommend doing this tour to get to know it better. We did the tour with Ramiro with whom we learned a lot and also laughed and enjoyed the experience of the tour.
Hola Víctor, muchas gracias por tu evaluación de nuestro recorrido. Te esperamos la próxima Un saludo A. A. de B. Hamburgo A Pie
We did two tours by Ramiro Fernandez, through the city and St Pauli. Great tours, fun, interactive and very good recommendations!
Que bueno que te hayan gustado los 3 tours y gracias por comunicarlo por aquí. Saludos Jan de hamburgoapie.de
I loved the tour, Ramiro is passionate about the subject, and made us love the tour. He also gave us many recommendations to continue enjoying our stay
Nos alegra que el tour te haya gustado, pero cuando lo hace Rama no hay duda. Saludos Jan de hamburgoapie.de
Not only was it enjoyable and entertaining, but Ramiro explained perfectly. It was one of the best tours I've ever done, and in an area that didn't seem interesting.
Hola, es verdad, no mucha gente sabe de este pequeño tesoro que tenemos en la ciudad de Hamburgo. Gracias y hasta la próxima. Jan de hamburgoapie.de
The tour with Ramiro was excellent. We learned from the history and culture of Hamburg with him. Interesting stories and some jokes that will remind us of the experience of the tour. Highly recommended!
The tour with Jan phenomenal and 100% recommended. He provided historical data and curiosities in a very enjoyable way. Thank you very much.
We did the free tour of Speicherstadt, hand in hand with Ramiro! And it taught us and contextualized in a very pleasant way, in just 2 hours, a fundamental part of the history of the city. If kindness and her flair made us very comfortable! Recommended, no doubt!
Hola, gracias por esta reseña tan buena. Nos alegramos al saber que la pasaron bien en Hamburgo. Saludos Jan de hamburgoapie.de
