Interesting design and I would gladly do it again!

We did the tour with Lukas and were completely satisfied. He engaged with the group and answered every question that arose promptly. He could tell a story and the historical background about every point of the tour. Moreover, it was very entertaining. In the end, he recommended us an excellent local restaurant. We are very glad that we discovered this tour :-)

Lovely walking tour.

Lovely walking tour with a small group and Guide who provided a good insight to Hamburg. The walk is about two hours with a 15-20 minute break is completed a decent pace. Wear a decent pair of walking shoes as some of street have cobble stones and can be uneven. The Guide (English Speaking) was very approachable to answer questions. I thoroughly enjoyed the walk and would recommend.

Two hours of Hamburg essence

Learn about Hamburg's history through city walks. I also enjoy the humorous way Leo, our guide, speaks, and there are moderate breaks during the two-hour period, so you can relax and enjoy it. And this price. Are you sure you want to do this? It makes me think, “What is this?”

A great experience, thank you!

I did not get to thank our guide Victor personally for his time and effort at the end of the tour, so the least I can do is leave a positive review here :) It was a rainy chilly day, yet he was informative as well as very lively and entertaining, also willing to answer questions and give tips about places to visit in Hamburg. We also had an interesting discussion on topics (somewhat) unrelated to the tour so that was nice :) To sum it up I highly recommend these tours to anyone looking into different tour options in the city (went on the harbour/St Pauli tour with Lukas as well)!
