We met with Angelika (Angel) at Heumarkt and had a very entertaining and informative 2-hour city tour. The time passed much too quickly with many nice anecdotes and little Cologne stories and singing interludes. Many heartfelt thanks to "dat kölsche Mädche"
The tour was well organized. Angela sang beautifully and explained everything quite fantastically. That's how we imagined it. So............, we were thrilled, we just say thank you and keep going
Our city tour was great...the guide was really great, with a lot of Cologne humor! Time flew by very quickly, it never got boring and we laughed a lot.
We really liked the city tour with Angelika. She introduced us to Cologne in a very varied way. We learned a lot about Cologne's customs and peculiarities, but also about the historical origins of today's Cologne. Everything was accompanied by pictures from earlier times and even with a musical performance and a small shoestring and dance performance. You could feel how much Angelika loves her hometown. Anytime again!!!!
We really enjoyed the city tour. It was very informative and entertaining!!! Headphones would be recommended, however, because with a larger group like ours, it was not always easy to understand the tour guide, even though her voice was loud enough and she kept turning to all the participants. It was purely due to the size of the group.
The tour was entertaining but also very informative. Markus showed us places we would have never seen by our own. He told us interesting stories about life in Cologne today and in the past. We would book again a tour with Markus at any time. Thanks a lot for the great two hours in Cologne.
Markus combines a great deal of specialist knowledge with his cheerful Rhineland nature, making every tour unique!
Very entertaining and interesting tour with lots of exciting information! Next time we will definitely book a tour with Markus again :-)
