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!

Our guide told the story of the planning and construction of the Elbphilharmonie with a lot of humor and anecdotes. The history of the port of Hamburg was not neglected either. In terms of organization, the timing was very good. The only small suggestion for improvement was that we found the meeting point relatively difficult to find. This certainly had something to do with the harbor festival. Perhaps a more central location (e.g. directly in front of the entrance to the Elbphilharmonie) would be better for all those who don't know Hamburg inside out :-).

Claus told us a lot about the Elphi on this beautiful day. Afterwards, we attended a concert. The knowledge we had acquired beforehand was very helpful.

Your Experience

Take the curved escalator and get to the Elbphilharmonie Plaza

Meet your guide at the meeting point and then ride the Tube to the roof of the Elbphilharmonie. Walk through the indoor and the outdoor plaza, admiring the architecture and the intricate detail that's been used in the construction. Look out at the city of Hamburg and take in the impressive views of the harbor and the docks, not to mention the Elbe.

Learn facts and interesting details about the building of the Elbphilharmonie

Listen to your licensed guide walk you through the construction and planning phases of the Elbphilharmonie. You will also learn incredible facts like the total cost of construction, how the architects managed to design the Outer Plaza in a way that no birds would ever fly in, and what 50-ton object hangs over the stage. You will also get to see photos of the Kaiserspeicher before construction started, as well as the different uses for the interior spaces of the Elbphilharmonie. Ask as many questions as you like during the session to make the most of this experience.

Make your way to the 6th floor and enjoy some local delicacies

At the end of the tour, make your way to the 6th floor to the Störtebeker Restaurant where you will get to relax and warm up while you enjoy a steaming cup of coffee with a franzbrötchen, a rolled sugar pastry that is reminiscent of a cinnamon roll.
