What you can expect

Your tour starts in the middle of St. Pauli at Gebrüder-Wolf-Platz. From here, you will dive directly into the neighborhood's surroundings and ride through streets that show Hamburg's rough and unvarnished side – including the famous Große Freiheit.

Continue towards the Schanzenviertel. Via Wohlwillstraße, you'll reach one of the most famous alternative areas in Hamburg. Around the Rote Flora, the city is creative, political, and lively – with a lot of history and a very unique atmosphere.

The surroundings change noticeably as you pass through Schanzenpark with its striking water tower. The tour takes you further towards the university and into the quieter, greener districts of the city. In Rotherbaum, it becomes wider, more open, and much more elegant.

At the Outer Alster, you take a relaxing ride by the water. Here, Hamburg shows its classic side – with a view of the Alster, lots of greenery, and a completely different atmosphere than at the start of the tour.

On the way back, a special stop awaits in the Gängeviertel. Between old buildings and modern urban development, you'll get a sense of how Hamburg keeps reinventing itself. From there, head back towards St. Pauli.

A tour where you get to know very different sides of the city in just a few hours – close to each other and yet completely different.
