What travelers think of our Hamburg experiences
What you’ll do
When it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site, that’s when you know it’s going to be impressive. In a setting fit for Cinderella herself, discover the dreamlike beauty of Lübeck with one of our friendly Hamburg hosts by your side.
You will follow them on an entirely personalized excursion through the maritime capital of the Hanseatic League, traveling back to the 1300s as you absorb the celebrated architecture and remaining quirks of days gone by.
Stroll through Old Town, where you’ll see landmarks like the Lübeck Cathedral, St Peter's Church, Grosse Petersgrube, and the charmingly crooked Holsten Gate. Afterward, you’ll go for lunch at an old mariner’s guild where wooden ships hang from the ceiling - let’s hope they’re bolted tight!
Sample rotspon, Lübeck’s traditional wine (we promise it’s not as dangerous as it sounds) and enjoy a day out with your host who can’t wait to explore the authentic majesty and history of Lübeck with you.
