What I like best about the hop-on hop-off tours is that you have the opportunity to see as many sights as possible at once and get direct information about them. I like to do a tour like this when I've just arrived in a new city that I don't know yet, to get an immediate impression of where things are and at the same time to see what I want to see in the next few days. On the tour in Frankfurt, I found the information about the skyscrapers particularly interesting.

It was very interesting to walk around this beautiful city and get the history of life in the past and especially WW2. Anka was an excellent guide. I would certainly recommend this tour

I had already been in Frankfurt for a day and thought I had seen everything. But the guide rounded off the story and showed me places I had overlooked.
