About this Tour

You may have heard of barhopping before. Maybe if you're reading this, you've been on a pub crawl too. But have you ever been on a Kiosk Crawl before? Whatever your answer, we've got a treat for you to get to know more about the local culture of Cologne.

Come check out our version of a Cologne Pub Crawl. Have a night out Cologne-style, meet new friends, play some games, and win some prizes while we explore our Belgian Quarter. As we wander from one Kiosk to the next, we'll try new beers, win some prizes, and learn some hidden Cologne traditions along the way.

Come explore our nightlife the local, Cologne way.

Steps of the tour

Our tour begins at Le Kiosk in Brüsseler Platz. This spot is home to Cologne's Kiosk culture, the lifeblood of student and summer nightlife culture in Cologne. Here you'll get to know your guide, connect with your fellow tour-takers through a couple of drinking games, and begin the night strong in Cologne's most famous student square.

As our tour moves to the next location through the beautiful Belgian Quarter, find yourself outside a typical Cologne Kiosk for your second round of beers and a few games. You'll be competing for prizes throughout the night, so start stacking up points with your team.

Outside Cologne's best hostel, die Wohngemeinschaft, you'll have a chance for a quick snack before heading to one of the best bar corners in the city. A few more games go along with a beer from yet another type of Kiosk.

From stop to stop, you'll discover a new type of Kiosk, a beautiful location, a new drink to try, and a game to enjoy with your fellow crawlers.

Join us if you're ready for a good time.
