Was really great,.............
Unfortunately, a lot of it is just dark effects and hardly any information; if we hadn't read the descriptions beforehand, we wouldn't have known what some of the sequences were about. Partly. A bit unlovingly developed, more could have been made of the scenery. The free-fall tower at the end was out of service because it was being maintained. Since there was no indication of this here, however, the children's disappointment at the end was great. Beware of the rip-off - you pay two dollars more per ticket to receive a "photo package." In the end, however, you have to pay another 20 (!!) pay euros just to receive them at all. No indication of this in advance either.
a great experience and you also learn quite a bit about Hamburg's history
Fun history lesson about Hamburg's dark past. The guides spoke loudly and clearly in good English. This is not for the little children.
Super tour! Great stories and beautifully spooky! 👍👍👍
Very entertaining, worth it. It is also something for children; it is not that bad
A bit scary, not too bad, good actors, well-made sets. We did, however, skip the 8m free fall.
Very well-done presentation of the time. Good handling of the topic. Exciting presentation
The visit to the Hamburg Dungeon was exceptionally great. Interactive, funny, and interesting all at once.
There were five of us there and we all enjoyed it! The youngest was 13, the oldest 76. Spooky, but above all, fun too! It was a real shame that we had booked for 5:00 PM but still didn't get into the 5:00 PM tour; we had to wait another 30 minutes in a totally hot anteroom. That was really stupid; I don't understand how that can happen. What are online bookings for, anyway?
