Cologne tours for schoolchildren
Cologne is more than just a city – it is a living history book! Especially for school classes and youth groups, my guided tours offer a unique opportunity to experience Cologne – interactively, entertainingly and, above all, with lasting memories.
With heart and brains through Cologne
With a twinkle in my eye, a genuine Cologne heart and a thirst for knowledge, I take you on a journey through the city’s past and present. Whether it’s the Romans, the imposing Gothic architecture of Cologne Cathedral or the colorful street art in Ehrenfeld – I design each tour in such a way that it arouses curiosity and is fun. I adapt the content individually to the group, whether elementary school, middle school or high school. My tours are not dry lectures, but lively experiences.
What can you expect from the city tours with your class?
- Exciting stories instead of dry numbers: Did you know that Cologne Cathedral used to be a building site that just wouldn’t get finished? Or that even the Romans were already in Cologne?
- Interactive experiences: You can not only listen, but also participate, ask questions and live out your passion for discovery.
- Topics that connect: Whether it’s history, art or the secrets of everyday life in a modern city – we’ll find exactly what interests you.

Your tour guide Markus Zens
I am a Cologne native through and through, with a soft spot for everything that makes this city special. My team and I have been guiding school classes and young people through the alleyways, squares and secrets of Cologne for years. I love to see how curious questions turn into genuine enthusiasm. Our tours are authentic, flexible and always told with a wink – typically Cologne.
