Details to remember
Le Caveau
Wine tastings, wine hikes through Cologne-Nippes and brewery tours through Cologne's old town. In addition, we also offer various single events in Cologne.
The city tour was informative for the “locals” in the districts. Less so for others. The destination of the hike was a beautiful wine cellar and the wines were very well selected. Delicious and gladly again.
