Incredible tour! Must do in Hamburg - Bob is a great tour guide. Not only is he truly enthusiastic about the tour, but he is also verh knowledgeable. Taking a tour is really worth it with him by your side: he can crack a joke when the rainshowers come in and he has plenty anecdotes to share. This will truly enlighten your stay. 1000% would recommend

Very enjoyable tour with Bob - Bob was full of informative stories during our walk. Our small group that day allowed flexibility for questions to lead the conversation in many additional interesting directions, and even to stop for coffee. Thanks Bob!

A good explanation but .. - The guide gave us a comprehensive and interesting stories about Hamburg tour spots. I am satisfied with his good explanation and guide. However, it was very hot, almost scorching hot. We walked under the blazing sun. He should have let us listen to him in the shade as possible. We were put in the hot sun every listening time. In addition, the tour took about three hours, i.e., extra time of 30 minutes. Accordingly, we needed cool fresh water, but we did not have a short time to stop by at a store.
