Overview

This private 3-hour driving tour of Hamburg is led by a former police officer who was born and raised in the city over four generations. The tour is conducted in a luxury vehicle exclusively for your group of up to four people, with the option to increase to six for an additional fee. Refreshments are provided on board. The professional driver and guide will pick you up and drop you off at any location within Hamburg city limits. The itinerary includes stops and views of Hamburg’s main sights, such as the Alster lake, the Hamburg Rathaus (Town Hall) built in 1897, the Chilehaus completed in 1924, and the Speicherstadt warehouse district, a World Heritage Site from 1924. There is an optional short stop at Chocoversum for buying chocolate or marzipan. The tour also passes through HafenCity, Hamburg’s newest district, and stops briefly at the Elbphilharmonie concert hall. Further stops include the Hauptkirche St. Michaelis (the Michel), the historic Krameramtswohnungen, the bombed World War II site Mahnmal St. Nikolai, and the St. Petri church. The tour shows where Hamburg was founded, passes a converted World War II bunker known as the Green Bunker, and drives along the Reeperbahn party street. Other highlights include the Davidwache police station, Beatles Platz, the Hamburg Fish Market, and a 15-minute stop at the Alten Elbtunnel under the Elbe River. The guide is happy to adjust the route based on traffic, weather, and personal preferences during the tour.
