Finest examples of Altbier - Outstanding selection of altbier producers. The 4 commercial examples cited by the Cicerone Training Program are included on this tour! Uerige (iconic), Schlüssel, Füchschen, and Shumacher (personal fave).

Outstanding Tour, Highly Recommend! - Wonderful tour! Moritz was a fantastic guide who was both informative and fun. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who is looking to learn about the history of Altbier in Düsseldorf. It was a great way to try a variety of different Altbier to find a favorite. Definitely well worth the price.

Great Brewery Tour in Dusseldorf - Tour guide was very informative and funny. He was able to converse fluently in English and went over and above. He gave recommendations for food which we really appreciated also.

Great fun with a great guide. - We had a great time with Andy, our tour guide. It was a very mixed group with couples, 2 groups of friend and a bachalorette party. Also various ages. Andy mixed up English and German so everyone could understand. He told us a lot about the history of the city and the breweries. We tasted several different alt beers. Ending with the most bitter one. It was great fun.

Not very exiting - Very large group, difficult to hear the guide and the beers were very similar, not something to repeat. Smaller groups would be better.

Not worth the money. - This was an okay tour. Apparently all the brewhouses are closed on Monday, which they fail to tell you until you meet for the tour. If you attend on another day outside of Monday, I think you would get a much better experience. I feel compared to others I was more cheated in getting a lesser experience for the same price. If I had known, I wouldn't have booked it at all.

Historically great but inappropriate guide - My 20yr old daughter and I joined a German speaking group, our choice as I speak a little and she is studying German as part of degree, friendly group who where patient as guide helped translate what my daughter couldn’t,during the guides translating for us he said … I’m finding it difficult to concentrate … indicating my daughters cleavage! I said excuse me that’s my daughter you are taking about, his answer, yes you should be proud…
Awkward inappropriate , in-front of everyone…. It spoilt a great tour, I felt like throwing the beer in his face… take your eyes up and look at the face and listen to the person…
