Full description
This tour of the MedienHafen will show you that Dusseldorf is developing at a fiercely dynamic rate. As recently as some twenty years ago, the area was dominated primarily by warehouses. Today, the district is in a state of permanent change. Home to numerous media and advertising companies, the MedienHafen is one of the liveliest places in Dusseldorf. Part of the tour's attraction is also the various examples of outstanding architecture: the twisted buildings designed by the American Frank O. Gehry are as spectacular as the open design of the Landtag (state parliament) is symbolic, while the Rhine Tower is a cut above the rest.

    The tour is very nice and really informative. When you walk by your own through MedienHafen you will never get what is hidden behind all these strange buildings. Dive into the story of Düsseldorf with this tour. Our guide was super friendly and helpful, answerinf uor all questions. Very recommended.

    Die Führung lohnt sich. Setzt architektonische Schwerpunkte erklärt aber auch geschichtliche Hintergründe. Der Langsamkeit des Gangs durch den Medienhafen eröffnet immer wieder neue Perspektiven auf bereits vermeintlich bekannte Ansichten. Der Gang durch den Hafen ist umfassender als die Bootsfahrt, weil alle Bereiche zu Fuß zu erreichen sind. Die Dauer von 2 h ist genau richtig.

    Die Tour an sich war toll & sehr lehrreich und hat einen guten ersten Eindruck über die Entstehung bzw die heutige Situation im Medienhafen vermittelt. „Leider“ war eine Teilnehmerin rein englischsprachig unterwegs, so war sie aber auch angemeldet. Dadurch verzögerte sich die Tour, wir mussten oft warten und hätten andernfalls noch viel mehr sehen (und womöglich auch erfahren) können. Das war etwas schade. Ansonsten eine schöne Tour in einem guten Zeitrahmen!
