This city tour is everything – except ordinary. Instead of dry lectures, a special experience awaits you with projector projections, live quizzes and plenty of Cologne charm. We combine the sightseeing highlights of Cologne with surprising stories, interactive elements and a young, locally rooted guide team. Whether you are in Cologne for the first time or want to rediscover the city – here history comes alive, entertaining and unforgettable!
The tour starts at the Roman Harbour Road – just a few steps from Cologne Cathedral and the main train station – and takes you past the Cathedral, Old Market, Fish Market, Rhine shore and Hohenzollern Bridge in about two hours.
