Tour description

During our walk through the old town of Cologne, we discover more than 2000 years of history, from the Roman city, through the dark Middle Ages, to the city of Cologne as we know it today.

Who was Agrippina, one of the most feared women in Roman history in the eyes of the world but the most appreciated by the inhabitants of this city? Why does the Lindt Chocolate company have a super famous museum in the city despite being a Swiss company? What does Napoleon have to do with Cologne? And have you ever wondered if the cologne you wear as perfume has something to do with our city? There is a lot to discover on our tour through Germany's fourth largest city, the so-called "Jewel of the Rhein River". Besides telling you the most curious stories and the most important facts to make you become a Cologne know-it-all, we will also offer you the most fun culinary suggestions: from bretzels in nice cafés to beers in the most amazing local breweries!

We are going to see some of the most interesting hidden corners of the city and talk about the impressive cathedral, our famous “Kölner Dom”! During your tour, we share funny legends and anecdotes with you. Meet new friends and learn about Cologne on this tour. Join us and discover the secrets of this historic city, we will show you why we say “Home is where the DOM is”!
