Street art
The neighborhood is very nice and varied, many bars, many guys, lots of music. Unfortunately not knowing exactly where to turn to see the murals, we saw little.

Very Good Street Art in Cologne, Germany!
The most memorable parts were the street art pieces in interesting parts of the local and the knowledge gleaned from the tour guide. I enjoyed the experience very much while also feeling it could have been much longer for the exorbitant price of the tour.

Dieter was great!
Dieter was not only knowledgeable about Street Art but he was sponsor and curator of it— actively involved in its preservation. Within a few blocks he gave us a great perspective of artists and influences on them. Highly recommended
