Tour description

Welcome to downtown Frankfurt!

Frankfurt is a fascinating city. There are contrasts here that you can rarely experience in this compactness in other cities in such a small space. It is a varied, tolerant and cosmopolitan city with everything that goes with it.

Trade fair, banks, airport and business are one side, comfort, culture and tradition are the other. In addition to a wide range of cultural activities, the city also offers popular local recreation opportunities such as the Main or the nearby city forest and the many parks within the city.

On the tour, experience what makes the city so unique, why it's known as the heart of Europe and why I've loved living there for the past 12 years.

Below are some of the highlights we will visit on the tour:

Paul's Church
Kleinmarkthalle
Goethe house
Steigenberger Frankfurter Hof
Frankfurt Opera
Euro sculpture
station district
wall algae
Deutsche Bank skyscraper
Schiller memorial
Old opera
feeding gas
Goethestrasse
main guard
line
German Stock Exchange

I look forward to your coming and wish you a lot of fun on the tour.

Best regards
Holger

Outside visit

Paulskirche

Consecrated in 1833, the church became the seat of the first German National Assembly in 1848, on whose draft today's Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany is based. Presently award ceremonies as well as political and cultural events take place there.

Outside visit

Kleinmarkthalle

The 1,500 m² small market hall offers visitors a culinary paradise. Every day except Sunday, all kinds of fresh food, but also flowers, are offered at 156 market stalls. In addition to regional specialties such as the green sauce, imported foods from all over the world are also sold today. And if you get hungry, you can try many of the freshly prepared delicacies on the spot

Outside visit

Goethe-Haus

Johann Wolfgang Goethe's parents' house is one of the most important and popular poet memorials in Germany. Johann Wolfgang Goethe was born here on August 28, 1749 'on the stroke of twelve'. He grew up here with his parents Johann Caspar and Catharina Elisabeth, together with his sister Cornelia. With its old furniture and pictures, the town house from the 18th century conveys a vivid picture of Goethe's youth.
