Beautiful walk around Cologne and the cathedral.
Published on Jan, 2025
Sascha took us on a walking tour around Cologne highlighting the various historical facts about the early Romans and the people of the time, even gaining some insights into their particular sense of humour!
Cologne - Wonderful Christmas Markets
Published on Jan, 2025
A Beautiful City. Visited for the Christmas Markets which were great. Saw 6 of the markets & all different. Food was great. The markets are good during the day to do a bit of shopping and then again at night to see the lights & experience the festive atmosphere, went with our adult daughter & thoroughly enjoyed our 3 days in Cologne.
The Cathedral is amazing & well worth the visit, the climb to the top (8 Euros) is a challenge, especially when busy with groups going up & down the narrow spiral staircase, go early before the crowds.
Lots of lovely walks as well.
5 stars for Sasha
Published on Jan, 2025
I booked a private tour with Sascha to show me around Cologne, Germany. Best decision ever. He was very knowledgeable and professional in his tour. He took me on bonus sites around Cologne and had a deep appreciation for world history and local history. He gave great recommendations for local food and beer. He was an A+ guide and I give him a 5 star review for his professionalism, knowledge, ability to answer questions, and food and drinks recommendations.
Thumbs up for this tour!
Published on Jan, 2025
Sascha was amazing! Within 2 hours he was able to show us around and give us a history of Cologne! He was very entertaining and not boring at alI. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and family.
The boat canal tour...

The boat canal tour through Amsterdam was one of the highlights of our trip. The boat was decorated with holiday pillows and blankets and the tour provided yummy snacks and beverages to enjoy as we took in the views of this beautiful city. The guide was very hospitable and knowledgeable.
