Tour description

Are you thinking about visiting the city of Halle (Saale) ? My city is known in Germany and beyond for many reasons: it is the home of Georg Friedrich Handel, is home to one of the most famous universities in Germany and, in general, has a lot to offer in terms of history and culture .

Many tours through Halle are largely limited to the historical aspects. This is not the case for me, because during our guided visit you will not only learn all sorts of interesting facts about the history of the city, but you will also get an insight into the everyday life of the people of Halle. You will also find out what is currently happening in the city in political, cultural and economic terms.

Our tour starts at the Handel monument on the market square and takes us from there to the following places
: Universitätsplatz, Moritzburg, Hallmarkt, Eselsbrunnen, Franckesche Stiftungen and Domplatz.

The tour with Marco was interactive and he gave us a lot of interesting facts about Halle and historical figures connected to it. He was knowledgeable and ready to answer all our questions. He was also very kind to do the tour even though it was just two of us. Recommended to spending a fund afternoon in Halle- thank you Marco!

Die Tour von Marco war richtig toll! Die Tour war äußerst wissenswert, behandelte viele unterschiedliche Themen und behandelte einige Orte, an denen man sonst einfach vorbeigegangen wäre. Mit Humor und wirklich guter Ortskenntnis sorgte Marco dafür, dass ich mich mit Halle conecten konnte und ich werde definitiv wiederkommen.

Die Tour in Halle war super. Sehr informativ und auch interaktiv, was wir echt toll fanden. Marco ist sehr freundlich und nimmt sich Zeit, gibt auch Emfehlungen dafür, was man nach der Tour noch unternehmen könnte. Er wirkt selber interessiert und offen, von seinen Begleitern etwas Neues zu lernen. Marco hat gut erkannt, dass wir sehr neugierig waren, mehr Geschichte und Politik zu erfahren und ist gerne noch detaillierter auf einige Themen eingegangen. Eine klare Empfehlung wenn man Halle entdecken will!

Es hat uns super viel Spaß gemacht! Marco ist ein super sympathischer und angenehmer Mensch, der uns mit Witz, seinem Interesse und Wissen begeistert hat. Wir würden es auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen! Er hat sich auch viel mehr Zeit gelassen, als er eingeplant hatte, weil wir so viele Fragen hatten. Es war sehr schön so viel Neues über den eigenen Wohnort zu erfahren. Vielen Dank!!
