Port of Hamburg, Reeperbahn, and Free Beatles History Tour
Tour description
Welcome to Hamburg! If you're ready to leave behind the typical tourist circuit and dive headfirst into the city's most electrifying district, put on your comfortable shoes! It's time to explore the alternative side of Hamburg!
Come discover the secrets of St. Pauli with our guided tours in English or German. Our guides will take you on a journey through the harbor and the famous red-light and party district. Get ready to discover a world of artists, anarchists, political activists, dreamers, misfits, prostitutes, refugees, and former sailors. They are all part of the colorful cast of this unique neighborhood!
Imagine this: the port of Hamburg, a bustling gateway to the world for centuries, has seen it all: sailors with sea legs, merchants with dreams, and immigrants with stories that have shaped the soul of this city. And just a stone's throw away is St. Pauli, the neighborhood that never sleeps, where dockworkers once ruled the streets and the legendary Reeperbahn became Hamburg's very own "Sinful Mile."
Our tour highlights include:
- Landungsbrücken: Where millions of emigrants departed to start a new life in the New World!
- The Fish Market: Discover how fish selling and auctioning turns into an incredible party!
- Hafenstrasse: Relive the history of the squats in the 80s!
- Alternative urban development: Park Fiction, a place for debate, protest, and community!
- The famous Reeperbahn: Learn about Hamburg's "most sinful mile" before heading back to the party later!
- Grosse Freiheit: Where the liveliest clubs are!
- Beatles-Platz: How and where the Beatles became famous in the 60s!
- Davidwache: Hamburg's most famous police station!
But wait, there's more! St. Pauli is not just wild nights and neon lights. Oh no, it's a place where history has a rebellious twist. Imagine a few young lads from Liverpool, known as The Beatles, playing their songs in smoke-filled clubs, unaware that they would soon conquer the world. St. Pauli influenced their style, and they gave it a place in rock history.
And let's not forget the spirit of St. Pauli: this place has heart, determination, and plenty of attitude. It's where activism meets community, where resistance is as much a part of the culture as music and fun. So, if you're ready for a tour that's as informative as it is entertaining, join us. Let's explore the stories, sounds, and soul of Hamburg's most iconic district.
This guided tour is available in English and German. Groups of eight or more people must book a private tour with us and cannot join the public tour. To book a private tour, please visit our website at www.robinandthetourguides.de. It's going to be an unforgettable experience!
