We were met at the Rathaus by Leo who was very friendly. Our walking tour was with Lucus who imparted a lot of very interesting facts and was very knowledgeable. His talks were both informative and amusing. We would highly recommend booking a walking tour with yellow umbrella. M and J

Had an amazing walking tour in Hamburg with Leo. He was friendly, funny, and super knowledgeable, sharing stories that made the city feel alive without overwhelming us. The pace was comfortable, the route flowed naturally, and he kept everyone engaged the whole time. Leo handled questions with patience and gave practical tips that were actually useful. It felt well-organized yet relaxed, like exploring with a very informed friend. Highly recommend booking with Leo if you want something insightful, enjoyable, and easygoing. Perfect for first-time visitors or anyone who wants a deeper feel for the city without the usual tourist fluff.

Went on the tour run by Victor - would highly recommend! It was really interesting and informative, and I learnt a lot about Hamburg that I had no idea about before going. Thanks!
