Classic walking tour of Cologne



Explore Cologne with a passionate Italian guide and uncover the city's 2,000-year history. While exploring the historic center, you'll hear many historical facts and anecdotes about this metropolis on the Rhine, as well as the secrets of Cologne Water. Let yourself be surprised by the "double" Cologne, the most famous perfume in the world!

Learn about the Roman origins of the city and be enchanted by the dizzying heights of the Duomo, the last Gothic cathedral, which will fascinate you with its history and architecture. Walking through the historic squares and alleys you'll take a leap into the Middle Ages, to the time of the archbishop and the proud free city of rich merchants.

Through historical images, you'll see the difference between past and present, the wounds of the Second World War, the post-war reconstruction effort and the developments of the modern city in the Opera and Kolumba neighborhoods.
