The tour was entertaining but also very informative. Markus showed us places we would have never seen by our own. He told us interesting stories about life in Cologne today and in the past. We would book again a tour with Markus at any time. Thanks a lot for the great two hours in Cologne.

We really enjoyed the city tour. It was very informative and entertaining!!! Headphones would be recommended, however, because with a larger group like ours, it was not always easy to understand the tour guide, even though her voice was loud enough and she kept turning to all the participants. It was purely due to the size of the group.

Markus hat uns "das Beste von Köln" nahegebracht, - zumindest das, was man gemeinhin als Besucher der Stadt dafür halten soll. Er hat den Spagat zwischen kurzweiliger Unterhaltung mit kölschen Dönekes und interessanten Information zur Geschichte und aktuellen Situation Kölns hervorragend hinbekommen. Infotainment at it's best. Zwei Stunden Spaß und Fakten zur Rheinmetropole, die auch bei fast 30 Grad nie langweilig oder stressig wurden. Herzlichen Dank und beste Empfehlungen!
