The historical information on the construction of the Elbphilharmonie. I liked the quick admission and the great view. Unfortunately, there was no insight into the concert halls.View original review in German

Hat alles gut geklappt. Der Guide war pünktlich und nett am vereinbarten Treffpunkt. Die Gruppe umfasste 20 Teilnehmer. Also auch nicht zu viele Personen und man hat alles gut sehen und verstehen können.Elena

Our Guide Katherine was very knowledgeable, she gave us very interesting information about the Harbour's history, development, floodings. The facts about Elbphy's project and fulfilment were very exciting. We enjoyed this experience.Armin

Christa 10 did a very good job! However, we didn't like the fact that we were outside for 45 minutes of the lesson. We were outside for 45 minutes, and that in cold November. The meeting point should be at the Elbphilharmonie and not on a traffic island!View original review in German

A splendid walk to the Elbphilharmonie
Nestled in the HafenCity quarter of the Hamburg-Mitte district, the Elbphilharmonie sits on the gorgeous Grasbrook peninsula of the Elbe River. Your tour starts at the Baumwall underground station, from where you can already feel the unique atmosphere and breathtaking charisma of the Elbphilharmonie. As you walk towards the incredible structure, you will get an opportunity to soak in the splendid sights in the ‘Grosser Grasbrook area, which has recently become the site of the largest urban redevelopment project in the entire continent. You might be able to spot some of the buildings and container ships from the old ‘Hamburg Free Port’ as well.
Inside Elphi Plaza
Take the curved escalator that connects the ground floor and the Plaza, an observation deck on the 8th floor of the brick section. From this vantage point, you will get an opportunity to gaze at the splendid city of Hamburg that stretches into the distance. Your guide will briefly explain the history of the concert hall and the old warehouse building below. You will learn about the various nuances of the Elbphilharmonie that make it one of the top venues in the world for concerts. Part of the Elbphilharmonie’s astounding brilliance is that the modern exterior hides the world’s most scrupulously designed interiors, especially the famed concert halls that are widely considered to be acoustically perfect. Upgrade your ticket to include a refreshing Störtebeker beer at the Störtebeker Taste & Shop, or French rolls and coffee.
