Very good tour, the guide responded individually to our group and made the tour a great experience. He didn't just rattle off his text and move on to the next point...., but reacted individually and let the group have a say in the speed and type of content of the contact points. Very good, I can absolutely recommend it.

Hi, the six of us did the Hamburg Sex & Crime Tour on September 10th, 2022 with Elli our tour guide on the Reeperbahn and were totally thrilled. Elli is totally authentic and convinced with her well-founded knowledge, which she was able to convey to each individual participant with her uncomplicated and open manner.

We did this tour on a Wednesday evening. It was not too crowded on Reeperbahn which allowed us to carefully listen the stories & facts from our Guide Luca. Learned great facts & heard super interesting stories while visiting the various locations. Luca did a great job, we enjoyed big times.

It was a very informative evening covering not only the red light district but also history etc.

War super erfrischend! Vielen Dank und gerne wiederr Mal...
