About this class
On this historic city tour in Hamburg, you'll discover the city center in a new way: via audio app with precise navigation right in your ear. Instead of a classic group tour, you will experience real insider knowledge from certified city guides — flexibly, individually and without fixed start times.
You'll start at the cradle of the city and find out how Hamburg developed from Hammaburg to a modern metropolis. Why is Hamburg actually called Hamburg? What happened during the Great Fire of 1842? What is the meaning of Mönckebergstraße? The tour will answer these and many other questions in an entertaining and well-founded way.
The best part: Your phone stays in your pocket. You'll enjoy a professional city tour as you move freely through Hamburg's city center — completely wheelchair accessible and at your own pace.
Ideal for anyone who travels independently and doesn't want to commit themselves to fixed times or groups.
