About this Tour

Join us on a neighborhood tour on the Reeperbahn in Hamburg that you won't soon forget. On what is arguably the most sinful mile in the world, your guide will show you St. Pauli with all its known and hidden sides: the Reeperbahn, the Große Freiheit, the Silbersackstraße, the Herbertstraße and the legendary Ritze. You'll find out where The Beatles started their world career, why women are not allowed in Herbertstraße and what stories lie behind commercial love, rustic pubs, box cellars, clubs and dark neighborhood legends. St. Pauli is a red light district, music history, residential area and party mile all at the same time — it is precisely this mix that makes the tour so special. Locals also learn something new here and get insider tips that are not in every travel guide.
