My tours usually end in the most beautiful part of Mainz.

Itinerary

Markt

The tour begins on the magnificent cathedral square where we will see colourful, ornately decorated old houses and the beautiful renaissance well. If we are lucky, we will also experience the traditional farmers' market which still takes place here every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday (until 14:00) as it has for centuries.

15 minutes
Mainzer Dom

For over a thousand years the mighty St. Martin's cathedral has towered over the ancient city of Mainz. Here kings have been crowned and the Protestant Reformation was kindled. Discover its many unique features, hear about its dramatic history and meet headless St. Alban in the cloisters.

1 hour
Kirschgarten

From the cathedral we will stroll through the nearby pedestrianised old town ("Altstadt"). We will walk along the romantic winding lanes of the medieval part of the city and discover picturesque little squares such as the Cherry Orchard ("Kirschgarten") with its half-timbered houses.

45 minutes

We fell in love with Mainz. Thanks Judith!

Published on Oct, 2024

The tour of Old Mainz with Judith was absolutely superb! She made the history of the area come alive with her stories of the history, architecture , economic importance of this old city and made us fall in love with Mainz! It was truly the highlight of our time in Germany and would highly recommend her tour to anyone considering visiting this city. I know we would love to come back and spend more time exploring further.

Our best European private guide experience.

Published on Oct, 2024

Judith is well informed about Mainz and a great communicator. Among the five private guides that we hired to improve our travel European travel experience during our recent lengthy vacation, she was the best. She achieved a very good balance between historical data and interesting anecdotes. She is an excellent story teller who obviously enjoys her profession, her city and her fellow Mainz residents. She is enthusiastic, flexible and engaging.

Old Mainz and Cathedral with Judith

Published on Aug, 2024

We had the pleasure of taking a guided tour of Mainz Cathedral with Judith, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. Judith’s deep knowledge of the cathedral’s history and art made the tour incredibly engaging and insightful. She brought the stories behind the stunning architecture and artwork to life, making us appreciate the significance of every detail. Her passion for the subject was evident, and she answered all our questions with enthusiasm and expertise. We left the tour with a much deeper understanding and appreciation of Old Mainz and Mainz Cathedral, thanks to Judith's exceptional guidance. I love the hat I bought from the hat shop you took us to. Thank you. Highly recommended!
