Dear Victor picked us up as agreed and immediately provided us with delicious mulled wine and gingerbread. He even thought about the cups and provided them with lids so that nothing would spill on the cobblestones in Cologne's old town. He is super friendly and polite and always told us something interesting at the various points (we even learned something new, even though we are locals). He took us to the most beautiful and interesting places in Cologne, and with all the Christmas hustle and bustle, it was really fun to watch the goings-on under warm blankets in the Ritschka. Simply recommended 👌

We had an incredible experience riding a tuk-tuk around Köln! It was one of the most memorable rides of our trip. Victor & Nicolas was friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured we felt comfortable throughout the journey. they took us through beautiful streets, pointing out fascinating landmarks and hidden gems we would have missed otherwise. The tuk-tuk itself was clean, cozy, and perfect for exploring the city at a leisurely pace. Whether you’re a tourist or a local looking for a unique way to see Köln, I highly recommend this experience! Thank you for making our day so special.

The tour was super fun and great experience. He has good historical knowledge. He explains the history with his humor :) Also, he uses simple words to describe history for my sons (5yrs old and 7yrs old) . It was very nice of him. He was wonderful and I recommend him to be as your tour guide!

The guide was super friendly and knowledgeable. He was fun and informative. We really enjoyed the ride and our 2 young kids loved the idea of exploring the city without too much walking in the cold weather. Highly recommended:) Thank you!

Helgi did this great! he is really a very good guide.
