About this class

This city tour in Cologne's Rheinauhafen via audio app shows you one of Cologne's most exciting urban development projects. The port built by the Prussians at the end of the 19th century was extensively modernized between 2002 and 2010 and transformed into an attractive district with office and living space. Today, Rheinauhafen combines historic storage architecture with modern architecture — a contrast that you must have seen.

With precise audio navigation, you can discover the district flexibly and without group ties. Certified city guides provide you with well-founded background information, anecdotes and insider knowledge right in your ear. You set your pace, take breaks when you want, and enjoy the tour while keeping your phone in your pocket.

Ideal for anyone who travels independently and doesn't want to commit themselves to fixed times or groups.
