Elbphilharmonie Guided Tour Itinerary

Meet the group outside the Elbphilharmonie for a one-hour guided tour of this landmark, led by an English-speaking guide. The tour reveals the history of the building, which was re-inaugurated in 2017 and stands where an old warehouse once stored tobacco, tea, and cocoa beans until 1900. Discover the significance of the location chosen for the Elbphilharmonie.

The building’s façade is characterized by its wave-like elements and glass top. Inside, visit the central square, accessible via Europe’s largest escalator.

During the plaza tour, observe the contrast between the modern glass structure and the historic loading docks. Learn about the history of the building and the reasons behind its ideal acoustics.

At the end of the tour, climb to the observation deck, located 37 meters high, to enjoy panoramic views of Hamburg. The terrace features several restaurants, offering appetizers and drinks (not included in the tour).
