Tours in Hamburg

We call ourselves “Elphen”, we guides who tour around the Elbphilharmonie. You can call me

but you can also call me Anna (Pasieka) 😉

After trying out a few other professions, I realized that they didn’t really suit me.

didn’t really suit me. Finally, in 2011, a fresh breeze blew me to Hamburg

to study acting. A great stroke of luck, I think today! The “most beautiful city

in the world” and finally a profession that suits me! Today I also teach acting.

With tour guiding, I turned a hobby into a profession in 2017.

I had already guided friends and family extensively through Hamburg.

As I not only love to eat :-), but also worked happily in the hospitality industry for many years

I particularly enjoy culinary tours.

Hafen City is my hobbyhorse, but my curiosity for more tours in other parts of the city is growing.

other parts of the city is growing. So who knows where else I’ll be meeting up soon…

Hamburg has been my great love for 40 years. Why? Because the city has everything you could want from your love. It is as surprising as the storm surge that washes over the paths I have just walked with my guests. It is beautiful, for example, when the lights go on in the harbor during ‘Blue Hour’. It is as colorful and diverse as the residents, who are “born”, “native” or newcomers to Hamburg with a wide variety of roots. It is exciting because you can never capture everything that is going on in Hamburg at the same time. It never gets tired of what you can experience at 4 a.m. in Erikas Eck, where night owls and shift workers eat the best sandwiches in town. It’s full of contrasts…..

I could go on and on like this. But I should tell you something about myself! I’ve already revealed quite a lot: after all, what better way to describe yourself than by talking about what you love. And my favorite pastime? Quite simply: I like to show others ‘my’ city so that they can see, hear, smell and feel what I love so much.

I look forward to seeing you.

Hi there,

I’m Christian. I’m actually a student, but because I enjoy working in the fresh air and with other people so much, I’ve been a city guide since January. I moved to Hamburg two years ago, but I’ve got to know Hamburg very well myself and as a student I know what’s going on in the city. I really enjoy being out and about as a city guide and always meeting new people and experiencing something new. Whether it’s spontaneously meeting Tim Mälzer on a tour or exploring the empty streets of Hamburg for 3 hours in the rain. I mainly do the culinary Schanzen tour and enjoy guiding my guests through the party crowd on Saturday evenings when the sun goes down. I’m already looking forward to my next tour with you. Until then!

Hello dear guests, my name is Katrin and I am a true North German.

I have even had my love for Hamburg engraved in my skin.

I have many years of experience as a guide.

Before I had tours with text, I was guiding stag parties around the neighbourhood 😉

I’ve got a crude sense of humour and I’m a bit of a dab hand at everything.

If you book me for your ‘Sex and Crime Tour’, we’ll start with a relaxed ‘foreplay’. I’ll tell you a bit about the history and origins of St Pauli, before we delve deeper and deeper into the milieu to reach our mutual ‘climax’, which we’ll find together on the ‘Große Freiheit’.

I look forward to seeing you ❤️

Hello,
My name is Stefanie and I started working as a guide at Adventure World Tours in autumn 2022. As a native of Hamburg, I no longer wanted to spend all my time at my desk but wanted to finally get to know my own city better.

And I can now pass this knowledge on to my guests, mainly travelling around the Speicherstadt and Hafencity.

I’m looking forward to taking the next culinary Elphi tour with you and showing you my favourite spots. The view of the harbour and city centre from the Elphi Plaza is always particularly beautiful.

See you soon

Hello,

I was born in Hamburg Altona and grew up in HH Eilbek, I am a real Hamburg girl.

After my training as a shipping clerk, my curiosity about foreign countries and their people led me to travel the big wide world.
But my roots are deep and firm in this city.

Now I am a pensioner and would like to show our visitors the beauty
and cosmopolitanism of this city.

Hi, I’m Patricia and I was born in a city that doesn’t actually exist… That’s right, Bielefeld 🙂 I’ve been living in the most beautiful city in the world, Hamburg, since 2009 and started working for Adventure World Tours as an Elbphilharmonie Guide at the beginning of 2019. I quickly tasted blood and wanted more: 3 more tours followed, on which I trained and had great pleasure in showing our guests the most beautiful and quirky sides of the city.

Since the end of 2023, I have been working as a tour developer and have the magical task of developing new and exciting city tours in various cities such as Hamburg, Berlin, Cologne, Düsseldorf and Munich. This job is ideal for me because my passions such as travelling, further education, socialising, creativity and food can be perfectly combined 🙂

In the end, however, my goal is to make a 5-star+ experience possible for our guests with every new tour development. Which tour will you book with us next?

Out of love for the city…

…I love showing our visitors both the well-known highlights and the surprises that this beautiful metropolis has to offer.

As I was born in Hamburg, my heart beats especially for this great place! And so, in addition to my full-time office job in e-commerce, I use every free minute to wander through the city districts with our visitors – almost like friends – and experience a lot.

Preferably at the harbor. And around the Reeperbahn. As I’ve already partied through many a night on the notorious party mile myself, I now know numerous bars and clubs. So I can organize the ideal tour together with my guests.

I particularly like the fact that Adventure World Tours has really great guests. A great, friendly relationship develops very quickly on the tours and you spend the hours relaxed, easy-going and having a lot of fun – sometimes well into the night!

Hi there,

Even as a southern German, you quickly get used to the Hamburg “Schnack”.

I used to travel mainly in North Africa as a tour guide, but now I feel very much at home in the north and have done for over 30 years. And I’d love to show you how beautiful some of the places here in Hamburg are.

Speicherstadt and Hafencity are my favorites – it’s just super interesting to stroll from the past into the future here. I’ll tell you facts, figures and background information, as well as exciting stories that are sure to amaze you.

And then, of course, I’ll take you to our highlight here in Hamburg, the “Elphi”, the Elbphilharmonie, the city’s new landmark. You’ll get to know and love it with me, I bet! Just come along and book a tour with AWT – Adventure World Tours – I look forward to seeing YOU!

Hello dear guests,

I first came into contact with the St. Pauli district in the early 1960s when my father took me to FC St. Pauli home games. I still go to (almost) all home games of this club today.

For over 50 years, I’ve been able to experience all the developments and changes in this exciting part of town and was also able to visit the Star Club at the end of the 1960s, where the Beatles began their legendary career in Hamburg.

So you are in good hands with me for a guided tour of the neighborhood.

I look forward to seeing you on our exciting and fun tour of the Kiez!

Klaus

Hello my future guests,

My name is Lara and I’ve been here at Adventure World Tours since the beginning of 2020.
As befits a real Hamburg girl like me, I am very proud of my home town. I’m not just content to enjoy it myself, but am always happy to show it to my guests. This is especially true of the Hafencity and the Speicherstadt, which have really grown on me. When I’m not giving tours, I study energy and environmental technology here in Hamburg.

I’m already looking forward to getting to know you. 🙂 So, just get on the next train to Hamburg, visit me on my next tour and I’ll show you exciting places and sights!

With that in mind:

See you soon in the most beautiful city in the world!

Hello adventurers! My name is Luca and I am an actor in Hamburg. I was drawn to the metropolis on the water by curiosity and artistic opportunities.

I was immediately captivated by the charm of old buildings and modern projects. For me, giving city tours is an opportunity to reveal hidden places, to lead people into a humorous situation in Hamburg’s weather or simply to let my soul dangle in quiet moments.

It is important for me to relate art to the city, so that knowledge and traditions from different areas can meet in the tours and the guests and I are also enthusiastic at the end. What I love most as a city guide are the guests and, above all, the places they come from. Everyone brings a unique story with them and in return you get a unique tour. I look forward to meeting you.
See you very soon!

Hi there!

My name is Petra, a cheerful child born in Düsseldorf.

My mother was born in Hamburg.

My father from the Middle Kingdom.

And if you now think that I also give tours in Chinese, I’m sorry to disappoint you.

I can’t do that at all. My mother tongue is German.

As a musical actress, I have performed on many stages in Germany.

And thanks to my passion for music, I’ve rocked many a stage as a guitarist, keyboardist and singer.

But a fleeting trip to the Rote Flora, Kampnagel or Schmidts – Tivoli Hamburg and the love for the city became stronger to stay.

So I learned something “decent” and became a travel agent.

Hey, now let yourself be enchanted by my fascinating city of Hamburg, my pearl!

Sometimes a stiff breeze blows and sometimes you meet a stubborn fish head.

But all in all: butter on the fish!

Come along and join me on these culinary and adventurous tours

in my wonderful city of Hamburg.

I’m really looking forward to seeing you!

Dear guests, I would like to introduce myself. I am Ute, I love my hometown Hamburg, and it is a great pleasure for me to show guests from all over the world my Hamburg.

Born in 1960 on the Elbe island of Finkenwerder, I grew up in a very rural, quiet and Low German speaking part of Hamburg – bi mi kannst du also ok en beten Platt liern J – but the other side of the Elbe with its urban temptations attracted me a lot when I was a teenager at the latest.

Hamburg was a rough city in the 70s and 80s. I had a wild youth, but I successfully completed my A-levels and studies and worked for many years as a software developer, trainer and coach.

My work as a tour guide is now more or less my “retirement career” – I have left normal office life behind me and am happy to be able to tell you and all Adventure World Tours guests background knowledge and funny stories about Hamburg’s Hafencity, Speicherstadt and Elbphilharmonie. I particularly enjoy the contact with the guests and after a tour where we have laughed a lot again, I go home with a good feeling.

Open for new things, polyglot, author and translator. I find it fascinating to meet new guests.

My motto in life: LIFE IS AN OCEAN, NOT A TRACK!
