UNESCO World Heritage Site Hamburg meets modern HafenCity
City tour through Hamburg's Speicherstadt, Kontorhaus district and HafenCity
A combination of tradition and modernity. On this day tour we explore old and new, tradition and modernity, brick and glass complexes. On this Hamburg city tour, we discover the section of Hamburg between Baumwall and Chilehaus on foot. Passing Hamburg’s new landmark, the Elbphilharmonie, the HafenCity cruise terminal, I will tell you about the history and future of HafenCity with our “Elphi”. You will find out how many organ pipes can be heard in the great hall and how much a flat in the Marco Polo Tower costs.
We stroll through the traditional warehouse district and revive the work of the 1890s. As a qualified tour guide in Hamburg, I will not only show you the obvious sights, but also take you to nooks and crannies that only become apparent at second or third glance. Or do you know where Hamburg’s Oriental Stone Carpet is located? Which playground was designed by children or where to take the best photos of the canals in the Speicherstadt? Come with me, I look forward to meeting you! Each tour is of course variable and can be customised. Just get in touch with me.
