City Tours
Our City Tours
Between the romantic old town, the world-famous castle, and a vibrant cultural scene, there are countless stories to discover – and our city tours bring them to life. Whether on a public tour for individual visitors or a customized tour for groups, our guides will show you the most beautiful corners of the city and make history come alive.
Costumed and themed tours take you on a journey into the past, while city sightseeing tours offer a relaxed overview of the most important sights. If you prefer a more active way to explore Heidelberg, you can also discover the city on guided bike or Segway tours.
This way, you’ll not only see the famous highlights but also hidden corners and surprising perspectives. No matter which tour you choose – Heidelberg is best discovered when its stories are experienced together.
