We are the #1 tour in Frankfurt for many reasons, but mainly our passion and desire to make your visit here memorable. We want you to wish you had more time in Frankfurt! Our professional, English-speaking guides tell you unique stories while showing you this historic and beautiful city. We believe the only way to see Frankfurt is on foot where you can enter buildings and see where history was made. We show you places the tour buses can't. The list of our stops is not in any particular order and may vary a bit due to events in the city or holidays. If one site is closed (like on Sundays), we may add another special site. It is an easy 3 hour walk, with comfort breaks, snack break, and is stroller and wheelchair friendly. Private tours & group tours available by request when you visit our website, where you can also book our Daily Tour. We answer emails promptly.

Very interesting history...
Very interesting history of Germany especially Frankfurt. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and you could tell he enjoyed sharing his country’s heritage with others. We especially appreciated the visuals he showed us on his iPad of before and after pictures of different areas on the tour. He kept the pace nice and leisurely so everyone on the tour had the opportunity to see things he had talked about.

Walking tour of Frankfurt--5 stars and thumbs up!
There is so much to learn about Frankfurt and this tour delivered terrifically. Ann was our tour guide and she was so pleasant and funny. She handled the delicate subject of Jewish history very adeptly. We learned a lot about architecture, art, history, and culture. We had a disabled gentleman on our tour and she was very careful with him and her true concern for him and his wellbeing was palpable. She summarized the complex story of the Holy Roman Empire quite well. My wife and I were very grateful to have been on this tour!

Why this scores 96
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Frankfurt.
How much does Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $34 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Frankfurt usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Frankfurt is not rushed.
Is Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 96 out of 100, which we label "Peak Performance". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 1,387 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Frankfurt, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour?
+
Around 485 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Frankfurt can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Frankfurt and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Frankfurt within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Frankfurt?
+
On Outty we rank every Frankfurt experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Heidelberg Castle and City Day Tour from Frankfurt, Guided Axe Throwing Experience in Frankfurt Altstadt, Discover the Heart of Frankfurt - City Tour in German. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Frankfurt?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Frankfurt?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour?
+
Included: Museum and Restaurant recommendations. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour?
+
At the Römerberg, in front of the Binding Schirn Pub and directly across from the Tourist Info, but on the street, 41 Braubachstrasse. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Frankfurt Highlights English Walking Tour?
+
