Itinerary

  1. Meet your guide In front of Hotel Europäischer Hof, Kirchenallee 45, 20099 Hamburg, Germany. PLEASE DO NOT ENTER the hotel, it is only the meeting point and the reception is not informed about the tour. (10 min) Admission included
  2. The walking tour of Lübeck will begin at the Holsten Gate, a unique Brick Gothic construction of the city’s medieval fortification. Apart from being an architectural masterpiece, the gate is a home to the city’s history museum.In the Holstentor Museum, you will see antique ship models, suits of armor, weapons and other artifacts related to commerce, power, and wealth. (25 min)
  3. Your Local Expert-Guide will then take you to the elegant Gothic Church of St Mary. Inside, you will be astonished by the gravity-defying high ceiling, a spectacular wall clock and a bell that fell from the tower, hit the floor and was left there for everyone to admire. (25 min)
  4. You will also see St Catherine's Church, St Jacob Church, as well as the precursor of modern hospitals, the Heiligen-Geist-Hospital. (35 min)
  5. You will visit the city’s harbor with more than 20 historic ships on display, and cross the Drehbrücke bridge. Before hopping on the train back to Hamburg, you will also see the lovely Church of St Lawrence. (30 min)
  6. There are two ways to adjust your travel preferences. You can choose a fully guided option to meet with a Private Guide at Hamburg Train Station and travel together to Lübeck and back. This way you will benefit from having some free time in the city for lunch (try the world famous marzipan!) or souvenirs shopping. Otherwise, you can choose the option with a car transfer from your accomodation in Hamburg to the train station, where you will board the train on your own or with your family/friends. Then a Lübeck Local Guide, speaking German, will meet you on the site. This option offers no free time, but the guide will drop you off at the station to make sure that you safely board your return train. (4h 0min)
