Getting started

What to expect

HafenCity food stops

HafenCity forms the backdrop to your culinary walk, with several pauses at handpicked spots for regional bites.

Features

• Across the route you enjoy five tastings at selected eateries, scheduled so you can sample different specialties without feeling rushed between stops.

• Some tastings are taken inside, while at other restaurants the group may need to step outside to eat, and meals can be enjoyed either standing or seated depending on the venue.

• The tour is suitable for vegetarians, and your guide coordinates the five tastings at selected eateries so dietary needs noted on the day can be taken into account as far as the venues allow.

Elbphilharmonie Plaza

Midway or toward the end of the walk, your group heads to Hamburg's Elbphilharmonie, where the Plaza level offers elevated views of the harbor and city.

Features

• Your ticket includes skip-the-line access to Elbphilharmonie Plaza, so you enter without joining the regular queue and proceed directly up to the viewing level when access is granted.

• An Elbphilharmonie examined and certified guide leads this part of the visit, adding context to the Plaza and its surroundings as you look out over HafenCity and the port area.

• You will get the opportunity to visit the Elphi Plaza on this tour without having to wait in line, however the Elbphilharmonie reserves the right in rare special cases to deny Plaza access for security reasons; in that situation you receive a partial refund.
