Overview

This is a children-friendly version of the classic Cathedral and Old Mainz Tour; we will still get to see the highlights but there will be plenty of opportunities for the children to discover hidden animals and hear interesting stories instead of "boring" facts and dates as we wander around the pedestrianized old town.

What's Included

  • Cathedral entry (if open)
  • Hotel pickup and drop-off (optional, by arrangement)
  • Local guide
  • Gratuities

Rekonstruierter Marktplatz Am Dom

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 and maybe even see the chicken at the egg stall.

From the cathedral we will stroll through the nearby pedestrianised old town ("Altstadt").
