private city tour of Hamburg's UNESCO World Heritage Site

About this activity

On this private tour you will have the opportunity to enjoy the UNESCO World Heritage Site in a very private setting with us.

We start our walk through the history of Hamburg at Hammaburg Platz,

the birthplace and nursery of Hamburg, and learn how Hamburg got its name.

Afterwards, we continue our tour of Hamburg's Kontorhausviertel, the former center of Hamburg merchants, and its brick-and-mortar shop.

We look at the prima ballerina of the Kontorhäuser under her pretty ballerina skirt.

Looking critically at the founding charter of our port, and discovering one or the other contradiction.

We continue to walk to Speicherstadt, immerse ourselves in the red brick gorges and their stories, clarify what Westphalen has to do with Hamburg and why workers lived there in a castle.

We find out exactly what Schutenschupser and Ewerführer did and why there are coffee barons and Persians in Hamburg.
