Frankfurt Essentials: Must-See English Walking Tour & Stories
We are the #1 tour in Frankfurt for many reasons, but mainly our passion and desire to make your visit here memorable. We want you to wish you had more time in Frankfurt! Our professional, English-speaking guides tell you unique stories while showing you this historic and beautiful city. We believe the only way to see Frankfurt is on foot where you can enter buildings and see where history was made. We show you places the tour buses can't. The list of our stops is not in any particular order and may vary a bit due to events in the city or holidays. If one site is closed (like on Sundays), we may add another special site. It is an easy 3 hour walk, with comfort breaks, snack break, and is stroller and wheelchair friendly. Private tours & group tours available by request when you visit our website, where you can also book our Daily Tour. We answer emails promptly.

Jennifer Holz was a fantastic Guide. She was fun, funny, entertaining and respectful and very knowledgeable. She answered our questions with lots of additional anecdotes and history, filling tour with interesting information and suggestions of things to do after the tour during stay here. I went to many places based in her suggestions which really helped to immerse myself in the culture. Thanks, Jennifer!

Tour guide had a history degree and did a great job interpreting the events that shaped modern day Frankfurt. Excellent English and a great guide.

Great, in-depth, ~3-hour tour I took during a long layover in Frankfurt. Saw many sights and the tour guide was very informative.

I learned a lot from the tour. I would have given 4 stars if others in the group didn’t delay things.

Excellent choice of sites, explanation, and courtesy. The guide did an outstanding job in explaining the stops on the tour. Additionally, he gave great recommendations for other sites and authentic restaurants.

I had a 7 hour layover so decided to grab a tour and experience the history and culture of Frankfurt, The tour did not disappoint. The guide was very knowledgeable adding in history and stories to bring it to life. He used an ipad to show details of things he was talking about. We had a short about of down time to experience the local market and grab a drink, which was a nice experience.

Jo gave us a really remarkable tour. She has lived in Frankfurt for 30 years and is clearly passionate about the place and generous with her knowledge and time. She checked in regularly to see how my elderly legs were handling the pace. A fount of knowledge about Frankfurt and its history and her enthusiasm is infectious. When we told people we were coming to Frankfurt some said ‘Why go there? It’s a boring banking city.’ It isn’t boring at all, and neither is its history. The recreation of destroyed old buildings is awe-inspiring.

Excellent experience! One of the best tours of our trip. The length of the walking tour was just right, not too long and very thorough.
