Highlights
  • Hamburg Town Hall - We can only visit this imposing building in the city center from the outside, as there are guided tours of the building. You can also tell the story from the outside.
  • St. Petri Kirche - The oldest church in the city has passed all the adversities of time
  • Domplatz - Where was the cathedral? What happened? Was it stolen by evil Vikings? Has it been burned? You will discover it on the tour
  • Trostbrucke - Was it a comfort when the death row was acquitted here, or is it possible that the name comes for another reason? This and much more you will learn at this stop
  • St. Nikolai Memorial - Here you will find out what the Second World War meant for Hamburg
  • Deichstrasse - You feel the eighteenth century with every step you take on this street. Beautiful buildings from other times are still preserved here.
  • Speicherstadt - A huge construction project is almost destroyed in World War II, but today it shines again with all its splendor. Also in this case, the rule is: some things can be seen, others can only be counted.
  • Elbphilharmonie - Even today, many people in Hamburg still see this building with ambiguous feelings. But this has to do mainly with its history. It’s awesome anyway
  • Hopfenmarkt - Here we discover the secrets of Hamburg’s beer and the city’s breweries and learn how hamburgers keep a secret.

Additional Information

Exploring Hamburg through the eyes of a local or someone who has resided in the city for most of their life offers a unique insight into the essence of the residents and the connection their mindset shares with history. We are the only ones who can elucidate why residing in Hamburg invariably leads to an admiration for the city, in spite of the climate which lends a coarse character both to the inhabitants and the city itself.

Location
Rathausmarkt
Arriving from Hamburg's central train station in the town hall square near the left tower

100% recommended - Excellent tour. The tour is very varied and the girl who gave the tour was very informed and was able to answer all the questions we had. We were worried since we were traveling with my daughter by car, but the tour can be done perfectly and the guide has no problems waiting for us.

Hamburg told by a Hamburger - The Tour was very entertaining and complete. Our guide, Jan, is a native of Hamburg, so it's the first time I've been on a Spanish tour with someone from the local area. It was very interesting to learn about the history and anecdotes of Hamburg from the point of view of a Hamburger...who speaks perfect Spanish! We liked a lot.
