Taking the road less traveled

Seeing the best of the city on Hamburg walking tours doesn’t have to mean sticking to the bustling main streets. On private walking tours in Hamburg with us, you’ll also be able to explore the lesser-known paths lined with holes-in-the-wall and popular local haunts not even your guidebook knows about. Of course, our local hosts can take you to the city’s top attractions, but they’re also intimately familiar with Hamburg's off-the-beaten-track paths that hide several exciting secrets of their own. Locals-only Hamburg is equally exciting – book our Hamburg walking tours to see for yourself.

Germany’s most iconic culinary contributions, from beer to bratwurst, are all found here in Hamburg, and walking tours of Hamburg are the perfect time to taste them. Our Hamburg walking food tours give you plenty of excuses to press pause on your diet plan, from cinnamon-infused franzbrötchen to rote grütze pudding.

I used City Unscripted to take a tour of Hamburg, Germany. My guide was Ralf and he was great! He has a wealth of knowledge about Hamburg, and a great sense of humor so the 4 hour tour flew by. It is well worth doing and gave me a completely new view of Hamburg!

He has a great sense of humor and is quite engaging, which made the 4 hours fly by. boo this tour- it's well worth it.
