This was our first visit to Hamburg and the most brilliant introduction to this amazing city. We had expressed an interest in visiting the ‚Speicherstadt‘ and our walk was built around this – starting at the Chilehaus in the Kontorhaus district, exploring the amazing Speicherstadt and walking around the new Hafencity with its historical harbour and the Elbphilamonie, with its brilliant views.
This was not just a walking tour, but also a talking tour! Anni had great knowledge and answers to so many questions, about the history of Hamburg and the buildings all around us, but also about what it was like to live in the city! This was so special and we learned so much – ranging from Plattdeutsch to the recent successes of the St Pauli football team! Our Hamburg Greet was the highlight of our holiday!
