Wiesbaden - a Jewel of Historism
European aristocracy and high nobility have influenced the social life as well as the architectural development of the former "world spa city Wiesbaden". Today magnificent villa districts and representative building fronts with individual histories still bear witness to the peak of the period of historism. This epoch has marked the architectural style of the city, and it is responsible for the generous urban development. This tour is recommended not only for lovers of history and architecture.

Wiesbaden and its Anecdotes
Wiesbaden has vestiges and tales tucked away everywhere - behind imposing facades, inside historic buildings and chambers, or in prominent places - piquant details often little known even by the local inhabitants. On foot, you get to know Wiesbaden up close and the amusing anecdotes and sometimes apocryphal stories that go to make up its rich history. Such as why the ?Little White House" is situated here, what Johann Wolfgang von Goethe experienced during this stay as a spa guest, or past dramas enacted against the backdrop of the Wiesbaden Casino.

The history of Wiesbaden's luxury hotels with fine-sounding names, such as the "Bellevue", the "Metropol" or the "Savoy", comes to life during a tour of the spa district.

Water and wine
Wiesbaden is a city of water, but also a city of wine. During this city tour, you will discover how well the two harmonize with each other. The tour will focus on four of the 26 hot springs, namely "Kochbrunnen", "Bäckerbrunnen", "Schützenhofquelle" and "Faulbrunnen". Another feature of Wiesbaden is the Riesling wine which grows in the city's own vineyards on the "Neroberg" overlooking the city. On request, we will be glad to organize a wine-tasting after the tour. Tastings of the water and the wine, an experience rich in contrasts, will be convincing.
