Old Town of Düsseldorf
- Meet the guide and experience a holistic journey on this tour in Dusseldorf, a city with political influence, a birthplace of techno music, a thriving cultural center, and a place of cutting-edge architecture.
- We will start the tour with a stroll down the city's most glittering, glamorous part, the elegant shopping boulevard Königsallee.
- Enjoy a scenic view of the landscaped canal that runs along the boulevard's centre as we explore the luxury stores that dot its sides, giving this area a Parisian feel.
- Next, we will make our way to the heart of the city, the notorious Old Town known as Altstadt, which has many exciting stories to offer - most of which have to do with Germany's favourite beverage: beer! Here, we will unpack the fascinating story of how this erstwhile fishing village on the banks of the tiny river Düssel got its title as "the longest bar in the world" and what exciting, dramatic and curious events happened over time.
- The guide will also share insights into the beer brewed in one of the 4 brewpubs in the old town.
- During our walk, we will also explore some fascinating stories associated with the city: from Heinrich Heine's birthplace and a famous princess' castle to totalitarian rulers on horseback and what Napoleon's favourite street was; you are bound to be astounded and very entertained.
- See the lovely riverside promenade of Düsseldorf, which offers a fantastic view across Europe's busiest river, a sight that appears straight out of antique postcards.
- Also, capture the beautiful architecture at the Medienhafen area before ending the tour.
