Overview

Düsseldorf is a really beautiful city that offers an interesting contrast between the old town (Altstadt) and the modern buildings (Medienhafen). If you are not sure where to start to explore this city, let me show you this beautiful place from the perspective of someone who knows and calls this city home.

My tour is a chance to live and breathe Düsseldorf through the eyes of someone who loves the city. On my Walking Tour I will tell you the history of the city, recite poems by Heinrich Heine, tell some urban legends and show you the place where the conspiracy against the Nazis took place during World War II, there will also be scavenger hunts and I will tell the story of the city's least popular character, the Vampire of Düsseldorf. A really cool story.
