Hamburg city tour
Half-day private excursion with harbour cruise
This captivating excursion which begins with a drive through Hamburg is the ideal way to explore Germany’s second-largest and perhaps most beautiful city. An important and prosperous port city for over a millennium, Hamburg offers a wealth of history to explore.
Tour highlights include the Alster, a large lake at the heart of the city; the Altstadt (Old City); the baroque St Michaels Church, dating from 1751, featuring the biggest church clock in the country; and the St Pauli district, long renowned for its risqué nightlife centred around the Reeperbahn, but now also home to a busy alternative cultural scene, thriving musical theatres and trendy bars.
The excursion ends with an hour-long harbour cruise that reveals both historic and modern aspects of the city. Accompanied by an English-speaking guide, visitors will get acquainted with old Hamburg from where about five million people emigrated to the New World between 1850 and 1939 as well as 21st century Hamburg, which welcomes nearly 13,000 seagoing vessels every year from all over the world as Europe’s second biggest port.
This is a four-hour, private chauffeur-driven excursion with harbour cruise and includes pick-up and drop-off at your hotel, with an English-speaking guide.
