Frankfurt Stock Exchange

This bike tour is ideal for both Frankfurt old-timers and new visitors to the city. The tour offers the perfect mix of famous landmarks (the Römer, European Central Bank, the Goethe House, the Old Town), and insider tips. Your qualified tour guide will show you the most beautiful sides of Frankfurt. Your tour begins in the heart of Sachsenhausen, one of the most popular districts in the city. Numerous old buildings from the Gründerzeit period give the neighborhood its flair, as well as numerous trendy bars, cozy cafes, and a wide selection of restaurants and traditional cider taverns. Here traditional food is served in a rustic setting together with cider. Sachsenhausen was dominated by orchards up until the 19th century and apple cider was produced here. Cycle through small streets and the painters’ quarter to the southern banks of the Main River with the famous Museum Embankment. Here you will find the Städel Museum with the spectacular extension and the renowned exhibitions, the Liebighaus, and the Museum of Applied Art. Cross over the Holbeinsteg bridge to the other side of the Main River and ride through Frankfurt’s old town. The Römer overlooks the old royal road leading to the Frankfurt Cathedral (which isn’t actually a cathedral) and the beautiful half-timbered buildings. St. Paul’s Church, the cradle of German democracy, is located only a few meters away. You will then ride along the Großer Hirschgraben to Goethe’s family residence. The famous writer was born here and spent his youth here. He impressively described this time in his autobiography Poetry and Truth. The green Alleenring was built on the former medieval line of defense in the 20th century. Cycle through the heart of the city on traffic-free roads to the new and old opera houses, and admire the impressive cityscape with its high-rise towers. A detour takes you to the old stock exchange with the popular motif of the bull and bear. Back on the Alleenring, you will cycle east of the city and return to the Main River. The new landmark of the city will then be located directly in front of you. The new tower of the European Central Bank (ECB) is the impressive counterpoint to the high-rise buildings located on the west side. One of the most popular bars in the city is situated right by the water, at the foot of the former wholesale market hall, which is now part of the ECB. The Oosten bar has a great terrace overlooking the city. Ride across the much acclaimed new bridge from the East Harbor back to the southern banks of the Main River. You will then cycle a few meters back to the starting point in Sachsenhausen, where the tour ends. At the end of the tour your tour guide will show you the traditional cider taverns in Frankfurt. The bike route takes you along quiet, traffic-free cycle paths and roads. Your tour guide will provide detailed information on the sights during regular stops along the way.

"Sunset" We first "cruise" along the banks of the Main with a stop at the Iron Bridge, where lovers can immortalize themselves with a love lock on the railing. The "Eiserne Steg" is the pedestrian bridge, which is generally already called the bridge of love and connects the Main river banks of Frankfurt's old town and Sachsenhausen. After that we drive to a nice place to watch Sunset before we go back over the Main bridge. The view of the skyline at dusk will leave you speechless. Ape Tour "Apfelweintour" This Ape Tour is all about apples. If you think of Frankfurt, apple wine comes to mind, also called "Äppelwein, Äppelwoi" or "Äppler" for short. Since the later Middle Ages, Frankfurt has been a city of elections and coronations, with the "imperial orb" being the status symbol of a German emperor alongside the crown and scepter. The way of the emperors led from the cathedral to the Römer. With the "new" old town, this "coronation path" can be experienced again. We will end the tour on the "Lohrberg", in a way the highlight of the city in the green with a spectacular view of the skyline. Frankfurt's highest park (190 m above sea level) shows a Frankfurt as no one would suspect. Frankfurt's wine grows here, and the Main Äppel Haus is a large orchard area where you can learn all about apples. Of course, the enjoyment of a cider is not neglected :-)
