About this experience

On this 8-hour private sightseeing tour of Frankfurt, participants will be picked up and dropped off at their hotel by a professional English-speaking driver/guide. The tour begins at Römerberg Square and Frankfurt Cathedral, followed by a visit to Alt-Sachsenhausen, where cobbled streets and Apfelwein taverns are notable attractions. Optional stops include the Main Tower for skyline views, Goethe House for insights into literary history, and the Palmengarten for its gardens. The route also includes a drive along the Museumsufer to see the Städel Museum and the riverside art scene, as well as the European Central Bank and Osthafen. There is an opportunity to relax at Grüneburgpark and the upscale Westend, or extend the tour to Höchst Old Town or Frankfurt Forest. This tour is suitable for those interested in museums, parks, and local culture, but may not appeal to travelers looking for a fast-paced experience.
