German Greeters

Come as a guest, leave as a friend!
All Greeter-Destinations

Who are the Greeters?

  • We are not professional tourist-guides.
  • The Greeter idea was born in New York: People welcome international and national guests and individually show them the best places in their city. That is what we Greeter call a Greet.
  • Therefore, visitors can expect personal stories rather than detailed historical facts.
  • There are no standard routes or rules. Everyone offers his walks individually with dedication and great enthusiasm.
  • On average, a greet lasts about two to three hours.
  • We meet single travellers, friends on tour, couples and families. We do not take groups larger than six people. We either walk or use public transport.
