What people are saying about Cologne
Overall rating
There were plenty of desirable options to choose from for the main course, and we went with the “gold” menu. Every server we encountered here was very optimistic and helpful. They turned off the music in the building to sing “Happy Birthday” to our party! Slightly embarrassing, yes, but very inviting nonetheless and had us all smiling!! Definitely recommend for anyone visiting the area, especially if you’re wanting a collectible souvenir! Overall a great experience for everyone with us:)
The tour was great! Amazing way to see the city!!! Incredible guide!!! Christian was amazing, wished the tour could have been longer because it was so great!!! 100% worth it and again Christian was amazing!!! Thanks Manuel and Helena
The traffic is of course annoying... but otherwise it was really nice and you learn a lot about the city and its history :)
It was very nice and staff were very friendly.I had fun with my family and it was amazing.
Really nice and relaxing no need to rush as there was plenty to see and do
