How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
The (in)famous neighborhood of St Pauli is gritty, dynamic, and known for its electric nightlife. With your local Hamburg host by your side, go boldly to the Reeperbahn, also known as ‘the sinful mile’.
Here, cozy restaurants and edgy bars are packed in between neon-lit sex shops. Delve beyond the red light district to discover the bar where The Beatles first performed, go to the Zur Ritze bar with an underground boxing ring where Mike Tyson and the Klitschko brothers have trained, and discover a street where women are not allowed to enter (outrageous, we know). You might even catch the tale of how a famous local boxer disappeared.
However, there is much more to St Pauli than its notoriety. We all have our own style of enjoying a night out, so it’s your call if you want to bar-hop down the longest party street in Europe or discover some unusual curiosities.
In St Pauli all things are possible.

Deniz was excellent and the tour was exactly what we were looking for! It was our first day in Hamburg and we wanted an overview of the city. He answered all questions and gave excellent suggestions on what to do the remaining time of our stay.

We had a great experience with Cem. He was very knowledgeable and took us to places that were beautiful and not just usual tourist stops. He recommended a local restaurant for dinner. We had a great dinner like the locals. I would definitely recommend him as a guide. He took photos of us and sent them to us right away.
