Getting around

Hop-on hop-off bus

The double-decker sightseeing tour links the top sights: City Hall, Speicherstadt, HafenCity, Landungsbrücken, Michel and Reeperbahn. You hop on and off at the stops as often as you like and use the bus as a convenient shuttle between the attractions.

Guided city walk of your choice

One guided tour is included, and you pick one of two themes: HafenCity with the Speicherstadt and the Elbphilharmonie, Europe's largest inner-city development project, or the Reeperbahn with the story of St. Pauli. Both walks are led by locals who know their Hamburg.

Landmarks and museums

Michel (St. Michaelis)

Hamburg's most famous landmark. The tower of the main church St. Michaelis offers a view over the city, harbour and Elbe from its viewing platform. The ascent is included in the pass.

Hamburger Kunsthalle
