Mobile ticket

Get to know the city through the eyes of a passionate local. With no set itinerary, you can customize the tour or leave it up to the local for an insightful introduction to the city. Make travel about the people you meet not just the places you see. With our walking tours, you’ll skip the mundane historical tours and discover the city through a local’s eyes. Experience a tour that will transform the way you travel to make it as much about the people you meet, as it is the places you see. Our local guides (Lokafyers) are passionate about their city and eager to share their knowledge and perspective. Since Lokafyers are not professional guides and tour occasionally, they provide an experience that’s authentic and personal, like a friend showing you around their city. By the end of the tour, you'll feel comfortable navigating the city and confident that you have all the information you need to make the most of your stay.

    Dirk did a fabulous job of showing and explaining to us the top sights. We started with the Roman roots of Cologne, then progressed through the beginning of construction on the Cathedral. Dirk is super knowledgeable about the important sights in Cologne and as we parted ways he walked us to recommendations for restaurants. Super nice guy with a good sense of humor AND smart!

  • Dirk rocks Cologne!

    Beautiful city! City class hotel was wonderful! Our tour guide of Cologne, Dirk, was fabulous! He knew so much. It was unbelievable that one person could know all that history! A must do tour!

    Carlos was such a wonderful and thoughtful guide. It was great to hear his perspective on the life and culture of his beautiful city. He kindly met us right at the place our Viking River Cruise docked and then made sure we had the local brew and dinner at a quality brauhaus versus the tourist traps that abound. Would certainly do this again!

  • Lots of Info!
