A day your way

Everyone’s bucket list of unmissable attractions in Hamburg looks a little different. One traveler’s top Hamburg tours might seek out striking architecture or fantastic food; another may be content to uncover snapshots from centuries of history. Luckily, with City Unscripted, no two private Hamburg tours are the same. We make sure your itinerary is perfectly structured around you, your interests, and your travel style, and you don’t let you waste a second of your precious time on things you won’t absolutely love. See the side of the city that speaks to you on our Hamburg tours.

Live like a local

With too many sights to squeeze into your Hamburg tours, from the iconic Elbphilharmonie to Gothic spires rising above the centuries-old cityscape, Hamburg’s tourist trail can suck you in for weeks on end. But step off the beaten track, and our private Hamburg walking tours will show you a different side to the city. From gritty street art-plastered backstreets to the trendy Ottensen neighborhood, where Hamburg’s cool kids congregate, Hamburg for locals is vastly different from the city as seen by tourists. Who better than a local to show you the best of it on Hamburg tours?

Hungry in Hamburg

Private tours in Hamburg, Germany, with City Unscripted aren’t just about seeing the sights – sometimes, exploring requires a more hands-on approach. And what better way to get a true taste for the city than booking one of our private food tours of Hamburg? We give you the opportunity to fuel your Hamburg tours with some of the best food the city has to offer. You’ll still squeeze in some of the top sights, of course, but you’ll also taste traditional cuisine, from hearty fruit puddings to salty herring rolls all washed down with a beer while overlooking the sparkling River Elbe.

We had a great tour with Deniz!!! He was informative and patient with all our questions. There was a lot of walking, including stairs. We walked about 8 miles total, but that was ok with us! I wouldn’t recommend if you have trouble walking or standing for long periods of time.

I used City Unscripted to take a tour of Hamburg, Germany. My guide was Ralf and he was great! He has a wealth of knowledge about Hamburg, and a great sense of humor so the 4 hour tour flew by. It is well worth doing and gave me a completely new view of Hamburg!

We were a family of 5 who did a day trip to Naples and Sorrento. A few days before our tour, I was informed of a change of guide. Nunzia handled the transition smoothly. We communicated with her the points of interest that we would like to see in Naples and she created an itinerary that fitted our two hour private tour, ending at the Chapel of Sansevero where we had a timed entry visit. Nunzia met us at a coffee shop at the train station. Her instructions were spot on. Naples is big and small at the same time. We did a walking tour of the historic center. The area could be chaotic at times due to narrow streets, very uneven street surfaces, and vehicles, tourists, peddlers all sharing the streets. Nunzia’s itinerary took us through these streets. Her commentary throughout the tour was very informative and gave us an insight to Naples. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Naples and if at all possible, request the services of Nunzia. Thank you Nunzia for spending the time with us in Naples.

Superior experience! A must do! Our guide, Becky was absolutely brilliant! My 2 daughters and I were amazed at the way she tailored our walking tour according to our interests. She is extremely knowledgeable about the city and showed us things we would never have seen on our own.
