Overview of the tour in Cologne

Over our 2.5 hours, you'll get to know the inside information on what makes Cologne a special place in Germany. Why do Cologne people like the number 11 so much? And why is Cologne called “the most northern city of Italy”?

On our Free Walking Tour, we'll show you some of the main sights, get to know the roots of the city, and learn why people from Cologne do not fulfill the German stereotype. Our tour is not just the dry history of Cologne. We will try to give you the true Kölsche Jeföhl (the Cologne Feeling)

A free walking tour means, at the end of the tour, you decide what it was worth for you.

Please book in advance if you want to join any tour: we will only accept visitors with bookings. The booking is free of charge.
