We visit many of the highlights of the city, while we tell you about the extensive and fascinating history of Frankfurt.  We take you places that the tour buses can't and we leave no carbon footprint.  We have searched high and low for the quirky bits of Frankfurt that will make your sightseeing tour memorable and we do it all for an affordable price. 

Discover the best of Frankfurt with Frankfurt on Foot:

We try to be as accurate as possible with our information, but never boring, because our tours are more than just a collection of facts and dates!

Along the way, we answer any questions you might have about Frankfurt and Germany.  We can give you advice on where to find the best Green Sauce or Schnitzel, where to shop for souvenirs, which museums to visit, as well as information about local events and how to find them.

Every day is tour day, since we walk 365 days a year starting at 10:00, rain or shine (or snow), all holidays included!  Please try to be on time as the tours leave punctually. It is unfair to make others who were on time, wait to begin.
