FAQ
What languages do you offer your free tours in?
We offer both our free tours in English and German. Our guides have a high proficiency in the languages.
Do the free tours start every day?
Yes, both our free tours start every day, in English and German. However, sometimes there are extreme events out of our control that do not allow for the tours. Please check our “Current Announcements” at ​https://www.robinandthetourguides.de/en/​ to see if all tours are running as scheduled.
Where do the free tours start?
Our ​Hamburg Historic Centre Tour​ in English and German starts in front of the main entrance of the town hall every single day at 11:00 a.m. Our ​Harbour, St.Pauli & Reeperbahn Tour​ in English and German starts at the Landungsbrücken No. 5 (right next to the Hard Rock Café) every single day at 2:00 p.m. You will be able to recognize our guides easily - they will hold bright ​yellow​ umbrellas.
How long are the free tours?
Both free tours take about 2 hours time. This means if you want to take both tours in one day, you will have about an hour break in between to get something to eat, drink or just sit down and relax a bit. Also, the 2 o’clock tour starts only about a 10 minute walk from where the 11 o’clock tour ends.
What do I need to bring to the tour?
In case it is hot do not forget enough water and sunscreen. In case it is cold please dress accordingly - it is better to wear too many layers than not enough. It might also be a good idea to carry an umbrella since the weather in Hamburg can change very quickly.
