Overview

The tour starts at Domtreppen, the cathedral steps right across from Cologne Central Station. Our first stop is the Heinzelmännchenbrunnen fountain, named after the curious gnomes tied to Cologne's history... very mysterious! We won't give everything away just yet, so be sure to secure your spot by booking now and discover the city with our team!

Meeting point

Bahnhofsvorplatz, Cologne

On arrival

By Metro: the closest station is Cologne Central Station (in German: Dom/Köln Hauptbahnhof or Köln Hbf).
The meeting point is at the steps/stairs next to the cathedral, right outside the Cologne Central Station. Not to be confused with the main entrance of the cathedral. It is not there ;) We will be there with our white and green umbrellas, so you can easily recognize us.

Things to note

This free walking tour does not enter any monuments, just visiting the outside.
Attention Groups!

This tour is designed for small groups. Groups of 6 or more attendees are asked for a contribution of at least 12€ per person before the tour starts, so a fair income for the guide's work is guaranteed. The same policy applies to bookings coming from different names that actually belong to the same group.

Cancellation policy

You are free to cancel a booking anytime. We kindly remind you to cancel bookings you cannot arrive for. Being reported as absent decreases your customer level points and the benefits you can enjoy.
