Overview

Apart from the "Big 5" we will look at the little details that make living in Mainz so fascinating and that will allow you to experience the real German culture and way of life.

What to expect

  1. Rhine Valley
    10m
    The tour begins on the Rhine promenade with beautiful views of the river.
  2. Rekonstruierter Marktplatz Am Dom
    15m
    At the magnificent cathedral square where we will see colourful, ornately decorated old houses and the beautiful renaissance well. If we are lucky, we will also experience the traditional farmers' market which still takes place here every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday (until 14:00) as it has for centuries.
  3. Kirschgarten
    20m
    From the cathedral we will stroll through the nearby pedestrianised old town ("Altstadt"). We will walk along the romantic winding lanes of the medieval part of the city and discover picturesque little squares such as the Cherry Orchard ("Kirschgarten") with its half-timbered houses.
  4. Mainzer Dom
    40m
    For over a thousand years the mighty St. Martin's cathedral has towered over the ancient city of Mainz. Here kings have been crowned and the Protestant Reformation was kindled. Discover its many unique features, hear about its dramatic history and meet headless St. Alban in the cloisters.
