Essential - I loved the tour, the warehouse and port area shows you a lot of the history of Hamburg. It is a beautiful area to explore on foot and pay attention to every detail of the warehouses and buildings in the area. We were lucky enough to do the tour with Jan who made getting to know the city dynamic and interesting, with his wonderful touch of humor. He explained everything very well, gave recommendations and went out of his way to show you everything in detail. If you want to get to know Hamburg I recommend doing this tour, because it is complete and beautiful. And if you are lucky enough to do it with Jan, you will enjoy it even more.

Touring Speicherstadt - This tour in Spanish is very interesting because of its history. We thank the guide who, although we arrived a little late and were able to find them on the tour, allowed us to continue with them. There is a lot of walking and on cobblestones, so I recommend a good shoe. We went with our daughter by car and although we were able to do the tpur, there were parts like the Speicherstadt that was a little complex due to the irregularity of the road, but the tour is 100% recommended if you are in Hamburg for a few days.
