Private city tour Bonn - City Highlights

5 (3) 2h

Overview

Ideal for those who have never visited Bonn or are rediscovering it for themselves and would like an entertaining general overview of the city, its history and the sights (Bonn 'light'). On this general tour, we head for the outstanding postcard motifs of the city center and place them in the context of important protagonists. A slight emphasis is placed on the electors and Beethoven. It becomes clear why Bonn still offers aesthetic public spaces and is internationally known.
