Frankfurt Tour with Hayden - Hayden provided an amazing tour! He was so knowledgeable about the history of Frankfurt and took us to the main tourist attractions and local hot spots. We had a large group and went over time but he was happy to accommodate us and keep going until the end. It was a great way to get my bearings in the city. The tour covered all the main attraction, important city history, and provided an opportunity to check out local hot spots and traditional food/beverages. He provided great recommendations for local foods to try, attractions to visit, day trips outside of the city and local beers, wines and ciders to try. Make sure to bring comfy shoes and water but definitely worth your time and money. I would absolutely do it again. Hayden was a great guide and very friendly. Make sure to check out this tour! You won't regret it! 5/5 for the experience.
