Overview

Come explore Cologne with us! Over our 2.5 hours, you'll get to know the inside information on what makes Cologne such a special place in Germany. Get to know why Cologne people like the number 11, why is Cologne called “the most northern city of Italy” and why we're such a welcoming place!

On our Free Walking Tour, we'll show you some of the main sights, teach you about the roots of the city, and learn why people from Cologne do not fulfill the German stereotypes you've heard before. Our tour is not just the dry history of Cologne. We'll 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.
IMPORTANT: Please, note that other people can book this tour. If you prefer to book a private tour, please send us a message, and we'll do our best to accommodate you, pending on availability.

According to TripAdvisor, we provide the best free tour in Cologne! Our secret: We love Cologne!
