Welcome to Cologne! I'm thrilled to guide you through the enchanting mysteries, sensational food, and exclusive beers of Cologne—a city I proudly call home. As an American-educated German resident, I’ve dedicated my career to uncovering the essence of places and their histories, making each tour a deep, immersive experience. Join me for a meticulously planned day designed to surpass your expectations. With me, you won't just visit Cologne; you'll feel it in every sense. Our journey will span 2,000 years, from hidden monasteries nestled in the city's heart to breathtaking, spiraling cathedrals like the iconic Cologne Cathedral, and even secret Roman ruins that blend seamlessly into the urban landscape. As a full-time guide and travel agent, my passion for discovery drives every tour I design. We’ll explore not just the landmarks but the stories that make them alive. Expect to uncover local secrets and enjoy tastings at my favorite hidden gems—the spots that truly define Cologne. And let's not forget about the beer! Inspired by my time with the legendary Anthony Bourdain, I look forward to sharing a Kölsch with you—the local brew that captures the spirit of Cologne. Get ready for a day of adventure, history, and authentic local flavor. Let’s make unforgettable memories together in Cologne!

We are a group of three guides offering tours in English, German, and Spanish. Our tour style is informative yet untraditional and alternative. We like to believe that the tours are a walking comedy show, but you'll have to join us and confirm this! As fellow traveler myself, we created the experience I would enjoy when visiting a new city - a fun, uncensored look at history!

“Awesome Guide”
We had a group of five 70+ ladies who wanted to tour the cathedral and other highlights of Cologne. Ross gave us so much history of the area inside the cathedral. He was a wonderful guide. We also saw other areas of Cologne and the eau de Cologne store and old city area.
