Very good tour, Viator as Agent not recommended - The tour was originally booked via Viator but canceled from them some hours before the date. As we had the phone number from the guide already we have called him and he didn’t know. Finally we had the tour which was very good but Viator we will never use again for any booking...

Amazing experience! Absolutely recommend it!! - Nicky is not only knows where to take us, her stories also took us back in time where all the crimes and history of Reeperbahn happened! She is super friendly and her stories were so fascinating! Who knows that Reeperbahn is all about sex, drugs, rock and roll with a hint of Eurovision, Mike Tyson and a real life serial killing.
Would recommend to anyone who wants to know more about Reeperbahn. With a traditional shot at the end, it is a MUST to do tour when in Hamburg!

Tour turned down by local guide even though confirmed - The tour didn't happen, even though booked, paid and confirmed by viator. The local guide Florian called me up afterwards and said that due to economical reasons connected to corona virus, he is unable to offer the tour on Tuesday. He offered a tour on Wednesday instead, which didn't match our plans. So I sent a request to sent the money back to viator, no response yet 2 days after.
