Highlights of Cologne

Guided tour/tour

Immerse yourself in 2000 years of Cologne's fascinating history!

Travelers from all over the world come to Cologne to see what the city is famous for. And they hit the mark, because you truly experience the majesty of the Cologne Cathedral when you stand in front of it. The same goes for imagining what Cologne was like in the Middle Ages with its alleyways and markets. Or how it all began with the Colonia Claudia Ara Agrippinensium.

The guided English city tour focuses on these highlights, classics, historical landmarks, major attractions, and famous museums of the Rhine metropolis – please note: only in English.

Personally accompanied through 2,000 years of city history

Beyond superficial apps and in an authentically entertaining and personal manner, your guide leads you to Cologne’s must-sees. Over two hours, you will walk through 2,000 years of city history, making ample stops at major sites and experiencing the exciting contrasts that define this city.

You will quickly get a feel for Cologne, the metamorphoses it has undergone over time, and what holds the city together at its core. Because Cologne is a feeling. You will sense this in many places – not just at the Cologne Cathedral, on the Hohenzollern Bridge, in the Museum Ludwig, or while strolling through the Cologne Old Town towards the Chocolate Museum. Feel it!

In the background, guests are sitting at tables with red parasols in front of a building that reads "Em Golde Kappes". The scene conveys a convivial atmosphere in an outdoor restaurant.
