Description
Join us on a stroll through the very heart of Düsseldorf!
During our walk through the streets of the Altstadt, we are going to discover the history of the typical Altbier, check out the river promenade and we will let you know our best stories about Napoleon, Killepitsch and why Düsseldorf ist the german centre of Punk Rock Music.
Those are the hot spots on our tour through the Altstadt:
# Königsallee # Carlsplatz # The typical Düsseldorf Breweries # Old Town # River Rhine
Of course we will share our favourite locations with you, just as the best places for an Altbier, the greatest burger in town, our favourite museums and where to get a drink with the best view!
How to find the Guide:
At the Bridge at Königsallee 43, you will see a Cartier Shop. We are waiting for you opposite this Cartier Shop, at the east end of the Bridge. Watch out for someone wearing a Stadtpfade Lanyard!
Follow us through Düsseldorf's historic city centre in the footsteps of Napoleon, the Toten Hosen and Joseph Beuys. We'll tell you the best stories from our city's history, peppered with the most exciting anecdotes and the best tips on eating, drinking, dancing, culture...
Hello, my name is Meike. After working around the globe for about ten years, I settled in Düsseldorf in 2010. Today I am a travel author and of course tour guide.
Kerstin is a passionate and experienced tour guide in Paris and Düsseldorf, a visitor to punk rock concerts, always on the hunt for new experiences, places and adventures and has thousands of stories about Düsseldorf at her fingertips.
Our small team also includes Holger, Henning, Andreas and Dirk, who are also involved in the Free Walking Tour from time to time.
Each of us will of course give you a vivid insight into Düsseldorf's city history, peppered with lots of anecdotes. We don't follow a set script, each of us will show you Düsseldorf in our own unique way, just as we would with friends from outside the city.

Our Guide today was informative, entertaining and personable. As ever with walking tours you see things, that as a tourist would go unnoticed, this was no different. The tour included various breweries, their histories and type of beer produced. Even the mustard museum was interesting and warranted a return visit, later in the day. All in all well worth attending.

Our 6th and final city tour walk in Germany and was the best. Smaller group size meant it was more personal. Also a bit shorter and focused. Great recommendations for food and drink.

Bobby was great! He tailored the tour based on the group (we had mostly locals with visitors, so he did not spend time on many basics that we either already knew or had already shared with our out of town visitors). Will be doing this tour with all visitors as each tour will be a bit different and I will learn something new each time! Thank you!
