2 Hour Private Guided Family Walking Tour in Mainz

The tour begins on 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 and maybe even see the chicken at the egg stall.

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 there are surprising features to be discovered in the cloisters including (for older children) headless St. Alban.

From the cathedral we will stroll through the nearby pedestrianised old town ("Altstadt"). We will walk along the 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 and more animals to be discovered.
