5.00Tim, is a delightful, pleasant and intelligent guide. Walking through Cologne with him and being showed key locations where history is clarified was enlightening. Anyone with an interest to understand Cologne’s importance during and through WW1 and WW2 should take this tour. You’ll be moved to see touching memorials to Cologne’s own victims. Explanations to the development of the movement where too many innocent souls were taken under the cruelest regim in modern history.
A lot to think about

5.00Enjoyed a walking tour with Marcel. His knowledge & enthusiasm for his city of Koln was impressive and infectious! Glad to have had the city's gems pointed out to us, that we had not noticed on our own. Really engaging & enjoyable tour. Thought-provoking drawing parallels with past and present. Thanks again Marcel!
