“The bike tour was really fun. The ride in the elevator in the old tunnel under the harbor was amazing! I liked going over bridges and through parks. The tour guide, Alexander was great. My only complaint was that the group was definitely too big at 17. Several were left behind at every ight and we had to wait and wait for everyone to be together. There should only be about 8-10 at the most.”

5.Bike Tour of the Speicherstadt & Old Harbor

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 61 reviews · 3h 30m · from $40

Cycle Hamburg’s old docks and cranes, cruise the Speicherstadt, stop for coffee, then ride through the historic Elbe Tunnel.

“Le tracé est interessant avec les cartiers populaires, le port et le passage par le vieux Elbtunnel. Nous avons eu que très peu d’explications et aurions souhaité des arrêts photos aux endroits stratégiques (Elbphilarmonie entre autres). La pause serait mieux au bord de l’eau où on pourrait acheter des Fischbrötchen, typiques de la reine. Le guide nous a perdu deux fois au passage de feux de circulation. Les vélos étaient corrects sans plus.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 44 reviews · 3 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $42.05

Guided English bike tour in Hamburg, 3.5 hours with helmets and bikes included. Customize the route from harbor to Michel.

“Our guide was friendly but the tour only including quant working class neighborhoods with extensive graffiti. We did visit two churches and viewed a large bunker built during World War Two. I was hoping to learn about Hamburg’s history and see some iconic sites. It was a nice day for a bike ride but do not feel I really saw anything unique to Hamburg. Very disappointed. We also paid for a private tour for four (a tour for two was not an option) but other guests joined us.”
