Discover cities step by step - on tried and tested routes, with history and personal tips
The best way to explore a city is on foot. In my city tours, I take you on clearly structured routes through historic old towns, lively districts and walks with great views. Each route focuses on the most important sights and combines history with practical tips for your visit.
The tours are designed so that you can complete them in just a few hours - ideal for half a day to a day or as a compact introduction to a longer stay. Some routes already include maps, others will be added to step by step.
Are you looking for a comprehensive overview of a specific city with history and background? In the category Cities I will introduce you to selected historic old towns, residential towns and metropolitan areas.
The weather is good again for today's 12 out of 12. The forecast is for a pleasant 15 to 18 degrees. I've decided to explore a place on the German Half-Timbered Road. I hardly dare admit it - so far I've only ever been on the way to other...
It's supposed to be over 30 °C today! I've decided to make the most of the good weather and finally visit the Stuttgart TV tower again, from where the view is sure to be fantastic today. Admission is free in my digital Stuttgart...
On this city tour through Tübingen, I will show you the most important sights of the old town, which is one of the most beautiful in Baden-Württemberg and has long since ceased to be an insider tip. On this summer's day, there is a very special atmosphere around the Neckar:...
For today's 12 out of 12, I'm setting off with my friend Jutta from northern Germany, who is still visiting me. We've spent a lovely vacation in Berchtesgadener Land and Tyrol over the last two weeks. Today we're going to the pretty half-timbered town of...
As I pull back the curtains of my room at 8:30 a.m., a couple of police officers with bulletproof vests are just getting off a bus. Today sees the opening of the exhibition and research project "Kafka's Echo" at the Museum of Modern Literature. Also taking part are...
For today's 12 out of 12, I decided to use my €49 ticket and take the S-Bahn to Kirchheim unter Teck. For me, the journey takes just over an hour, from Suttgart main station it would be about 45 minutes on the S1 to Kirchheim. My car...
As the weather forecast for today was bad, I decided to go to Stuttgart and visit the Württemberg State Museum in the Old Palace, which a friend had recently spoken enthusiastically about. I vaguely remember that...
For today's 12 out of 12, I would like to take you to the small town of Calw, which is just 35 km from my home in Sindelfingen, also on the German Half-Timbered Road. Calw is the birthplace of the favorite writer of my youth, Hermann Hesse....
Rottweil is one of those cities that I have put off visiting for a long time - even though it is only around 70 kilometers away from my home in Sindelfingen. Yet Rottweil is considered the oldest town in Baden-Württemberg: the Romans founded a town here as early as 73 AD...
November 12, 2023 is Schiller Sunday in Marbach. Every year, Marbach celebrates its most famous son for a week around Schiller's birthday. Friedrich Schiller was born in the small town on the Neckar on November 10, 1759. So what could be more...
