There are many questions hidden behind Hamburg’s new landmark. Today it is a world-famous concert hall. Your tour guide will explain! From the – perhaps – too perfect acoustics in the Great Hall (no tour of the concert halls included) to a unique view. A professional tour guide will explain to you how the construction delays came about and what the Elbphilharmonie means for Hamburg today. Together we will examine the advantages and disadvantages of the project in a balanced way. During the tour you will be provided with many facts and insider knowledge:

  • Why did the Elbphilharmonie cost so much?
  • How did they manage to create a landmark for decades despite construction being stopped and costs increasing tenfold?
  • How much does an overnight stay cost and who lives in the “Elphi”?
  • What special materials is the concert hall made of?

After the tour, enjoy one of Hamburg’s most beautiful views over the city and the gigantic harbor. Uncover the mystery of the Elbphilharmonie with us.
