Frequently asked questions
Are all tours in English?
Yes. All tours in this programme are conducted in English. Would you prefer to join a tour in German? Just get in touch with us, we'll be happy to arrange it for you.
Where do the tours start?
Most tours start and end at or near the CCH, Congress Center Hamburg. One exception: the Walking Tour Coffee meets Chocolate starts and ends in the Speicherstadt, at the Rosinenfischer Kontor, Auf dem Sande 1, 20457 Hamburg, and does not include a bus shuttle. All the important details, start time, meeting point and everything else you need to know, are printed on your ticket and listed in each tour description on this page.
What should I wear or bring?
Hamburg’s weather can change quickly. We recommend comfortable shoes and a weatherproof jacket, because most tours include time outdoors.
Can I bring my partner or family?
Of course, everyone is welcome. Simply book a ticket for each guest. Two tours, Miniatur Wunderland and Hamburg’s Chocolate Sides, are especially family-friendly.
Which payment methods can I use?
You can pay online by credit card, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, iDEAL, Bancontact and Alipay.
Do I need cash in Hamburg?
A few euros in your pocket are a good idea. Cards are widely accepted, but every now and then you will come across a shop, café or kiosk where cash is the only option. That is simply part of Hamburg. And a small tip for the harbour round trip: the drinks on board can only be paid for in cash.
What if I need to cancel, or a tour cannot take place?
Cancellations must be sent in text form to ahoi@rosinenfischer.de. The date we receive your message applies. The cancellation fee is charged on the invoice amount, and the final deadline differs by tour because we book and pay for admission tickets and guides in advance.
- Miniatur Wunderland: 10 percent until 40 days before the tour, 20 percent from 39 to 31 days. From 30 days before the tour, no refund.
- Hamburg’s Chocolate Sides: 10 percent until 40 days before the tour, 20 percent from 39 to 30 days, 40 percent from 29 to 22 days. From 21 days before the tour, no refund.
- All other tours: 10 percent until 40 days before the tour, 20 percent from 39 to 30 days, 40 percent from 29 to 15 days. From 14 days before the tour, no refund.
The same applies in case of no show. Tickets are transferable at no cost. If you cannot attend, pass your ticket to a colleague. We scan the QR code on site, no notice required. If we have to cancel a tour because the minimum number of participants is not reached, we inform all ticket holders no later than the last day on which cancellation is possible for that tour. If a tour cannot go ahead for reasons of safety or weather, or because a partner cannot deliver, we inform you as soon as we know, which may be at short notice. You then receive a full refund or a place on another tour of your choice. Refunds are made to the original payment method within 10 working days. The full cancellation rules are set out in our Special Terms and Conditions.
