Nestled in the heart of Germany, Düsseldorf is a city of captivating charm and short distances. With attractions just a few steps apart, it's an ideal destination for those seeking a taste of culture, history and modernity. The city centre tour provides a comprehensive overview of the highlights of the old town, Königsallee, and the Rhine promenade in under an hour, giving you a solid foundation for your Düsseldorf adventure.
Once a humble fishing village, today's Düsseldorf is a lush city on the Rhine and a renowned international art hub. The Old Town, with its numerous churches, town hall and cultural sites, allows you to easily trace the historical trail from art-loving Elector Jan Wellem to Joseph Beuys. This area is also home to the "longest bar in the world", boasting around 260 pubs, bars, and restaurants packed into half a square kilometre. In the traditional breweries here, you'll find that the Rhineland attitude to life is perpetually optimistic — the glass (of Altbier) is always half full.
The city's legendary shopping mile, Königsallee, is renowned for its concentration of designer boutiques. Add to this the forward-looking architecture of the Kö-Bogen and you have a complete snapshot of Düsseldorf's city centre. If you're eager to delve deeper into the city's many facets, consider joining this themed tour.
