Excursions

Christmassy city tour Koblenz by foot (29 € p.P.)

Koblenz - the city on the "German Corner" - is one of the oldest cities in Germany. The Roman town is transformed every year into an atmospheric pre-Christmas paradise: the scent of freshly roasted almonds, mulled wine and gingerbread roars through the streets. The city tour takes you past the historic, Christmas decorated town hall with the Schängelbrunnen and many other interesting points. For example, you can see the "Alte Münze", a former Coin Master House of the Electoral Mint on the Münzplatz. Also, on the Münzplatz is the birthplace of Prince Metternich. Worth seeing is the "Balduinbrücke", the second oldest, still preserved bridge that leads over the Moselle. The bridge dates back to the 14th century.

City tour Mainz by foot (25 € p.P.)

During your city tour you can discover the picturesque old town of Mainz. It still clearly reminds you to the medieval and early modern townscape, with its winding alleys, the half-timbered houses, the baroque noble houses as well as the catholic parish church St. Stephan with its unique blue stained glass windows by Marc Chagall. A further sight is the enormous St. Martin's Cathedral, which is one of the imperial cathedrals, as well as the many important squares, monuments and interesting museums, such as the Gutenberg Museum.

City tour Wiesbaden (25 € p.P.)

During your tour you will learn interesting and surprising facts about the history and life in the Hessian state capital. Whether the ?Kurhaus?, Hesse State Theater or imposing villas - representative buildings characterize the face of the city. Here in the "City of the Hot Springs", many interesting facts about will be given to you - the thermal water, the fountains and Wiesbaden as world spa town of the 19th century, an impressive report to say the least. Among other things, the tour leads to the Schlossplatz square with its old and new town hall, the Marktkirche, the tallest building in the city, and the former city palace of the Dukes of Nassau, now the seat of the Hessian state parliament.

City tour Rüdesheim by foot with mulled wine (29 € p.P.)

Your sightseeing tour through Rüdesheim begins at the pier, where your guide is already waiting for you. During the guided tour through the old town of Rüdesheim you will see many sights of the city, such as the Eagle Tower, the Catholic parish church of St. James on the market square (from outside) and the Klunkartdshof, a monumental half-timbered building from the first half of the 16th century. The Brömserburg, which today is the seat of the Rheingau Wine Museum, the Brömserhof, as well as the famous Drosselgasse, the heart of Rüdesheim's old town, are also part of the tour. At the end of the tour you can enjoy the impressions of the city with a glass of mulled wine.
