We are the #1 tour in Frankfurt for many reasons, but mainly our passion and desire to make your visit here memorable. We want you to wish you had more time in Frankfurt!
Our professional, English-speaking guides tell you unique stories while showing you this historic and beautiful city.
We believe the only way to see Frankfurt is on foot where you can enter buildings and see where history was made. We show you places the tour buses can't.
The list of our stops is not in any particular order and may vary a bit due to events in the city or holidays. If one site is closed (like on Sundays), we may add another special site.
It is an easy 3 hour walk, with comfort breaks, snack break, and is stroller and wheelchair friendly.
Private tours & group tours available by request when you visit our website, where you can also book our Daily Tour. We answer emails promptly.

Very interesting history...
Christine_K, October 2026
Very interesting history of Germany especially Frankfurt. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and you could tell he enjoyed sharing his country’s heritage with others. We especially appreciated the visuals he showed us on his iPad of before and after pictures of different areas on the tour. He kept the pace nice and leisurely so everyone on the tour had the opportunity to see things he had talked about.

Walking tour of Frankfurt--5 stars and thumbs up!
Carlton_M, October 2026
There is so much to learn about Frankfurt and this tour delivered terrifically. Ann was our tour guide and she was so pleasant and funny. She handled the delicate subject of Jewish history very adeptly. We learned a lot about architecture, art, history, and culture. We had a disabled gentleman on our tour and she was very careful with him and her true concern for him and his wellbeing was palpable. She summarized the complex story of the Holy Roman Empire quite well. My wife and I were very grateful to have been on this tour!
