Great tour with jokes and lots of information from the Romans to today. Entertaining, charming with some Cologne anecdotes 👏🏼. Despite the public holiday, Father's Day and Wine Week in Cologne, our guide always had a good word "today is Father's Day, that will definitely be fun" Definitely recommended!!

The tour was perfect, both in terms of the time frame and the places visited. Our guide, unfortunately I forgot her name, presented everything in a very humorous, professional way and answered many questions. Many thanks for the entertaining time!

We took a tour with family and friends as part of my birthday. 16 people. Everyone had fun. It was very entertaining and interesting. We are all from near Cologne, but you always learn something new about our favorite city. Our guide was very nice, competent and the time flew by
