Germany · TOURS IN ULM
Good tours in Ulm fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Join a professional English or German-speaking guide at Tourist-Information Ulm for a 1.5-hour walk through Ulm and Neu-Ulm. See the painted town hall, modern city-center buildings, Fishermen’s and Tanners’ Quarter, and Ulm Minster, home to Germany’s tallest church tower. The Minster interior visit depends on events and construction dates.
You guide yourself through Ulm with an 11-envelope city game. Start at the Löwenbrunnen, solve clues at the Münster, moat houses, Einstein fountain, Fischer- and Gerberviertel, Schwörhaus, and town hall. The box includes directions, history, solutions, and flexible pauses, but no guide or attraction tickets.
“Sehr gut , guter Aufbau , hatten viel Spaß Sehr unterhaltsam. Tolles Format um eine Stadt zu entdecken”
Join a German-speaking guide for a 1.5-hour evening walk from Ulm Minster through the modern center, town hall, city wall, and restored fishermen’s and tanners’ quarter. You’ll see the Crooked House, hear local anecdotes, and compare medieval Ulm with its modern architecture. Guide Anne is praised for lively, humorous storytelling.
“Gids na de tijd met leuke verhalen. Helaas alles in het Duits, ondanks dat we Engels hadden aangegeven. Voor de helft van het gezelschap een probleem omdat ze die taal onvoldoende matig waren om de details van het verhaal te kunnen volgen.”
Follow gravedigger Jörg Zenker through Ulm’s Höll district, the Cross neighbourhood, Heimstrasse, and the Old Cemetery. Expect German-language stories about odd characters, local celebrities, gloomy secrets, and a possible empty grave. The tour costs $17, lasts 90 minutes, and is wheelchair accessible.
Pick a river, a century or a beer hall.
