Additional Information

Experience the city through a local’s viewpoint. With a flexible itinerary, you have the option to shape the tour or allow the local to lead you on an enlightening exploration of the city. Focus on the people you meet rather than merely the sights you visit. With our on-foot tours, you’ll bypass ordinary historical walkthroughs and explore the city as a local sees it. Anticipate a tour experience that shifts your travel outlook, emphasizing connections with people as much as interacting with location. Our local guides, Lokafyers, are enthused about sharing their city’s gems and giving you their unique perspective. As they are not career tour guides and conduct tours only occasionally, they offer an authentic and intimate journey, akin to a friend guiding you through their hometown. By the tour’s completion, you’ll be proficient in maneuvering the city and confident in your grasp of essential information to optimize your visit.

  • In case travellers would like to include a visit to an attraction, they would need to cover the cost of entrance for themselves and also the Lokafyer (local guide)

Great walk & tour from David surrounding music & history - Great tour. Came to Leipzig with little understanding, left with music in my ears - Bach, Mendelssohn, Wagner. Good walk through city park, central district, Leipzig Uni. Learned about merchant influence, Stasi, protests in 68 & 93, & of course music

Leipzig Highlights - Omar was a delightful tour guide, he gave us a great overview of Leipzig, I appreciate the area a lot more now and would love to return. We tried 2 brewpubs he recommended: Ohne Bedenken for Gose beer, and Brauhaus an der Thomaskirche, both served good beer; and ate dinner at Auerbachskeller (a historic restaurant). The Sauerbraten was delicious! Thank you Omar!

A no- show guide - Our Lokafy guide didn't show up. I was given a Google maps link to a Platz, which turned out to be rather large, and only an email address for the guide, no phone number. I sent hime three emails, and finally contacted the company. Fortunately they promptly responded saying they would contact the guide, but then a few minutes later informed me they couldn't reach him either. We gave up after waiting more rhan 20 minutes. The company has promised a refund in 3 to 5 days hopefully they'll follow through. I won't book a Lokafy tour again.

Trip advisor and Lokafy Leipzig tour let us down - The local cancelled less than 12 hrs before the tour and our arrival. Leaving us no recourse. Don’t trust TripAdvisor tours as there is no way to contact tor seek help. This was my first experience and very negative.
