FAQ

What is special about Gourmet Detectives?

Not only will you experience a city tour, but you will also get an exciting puzzle tour combined with delicious food and drinks from local Hamburg restaurants. A large part of the proceeds will also go to our gastronomy partners, so you support small local businesses.

Basically for any adult who wants to discover the city in a new way. We recommend it for small groups of friends, families, couples, work colleagues or foodies. Basically any constellation you can think of. :)

How many people can I take part in the Gourmet Detectives Tour

We recommend a group size of 2-8 for the tour. Of course, the tour can also be done with larger groups, but it may be more difficult for everyone to immerse themselves in the adventure.

How exactly does the tour work without a guide?

Before you start, download our app. It has a map integrated that will guide you to all the places. You decide for yourself how you want to go and in what order you want to go to the places.

Is there an age limit for the tour?

Our tour is primarily aimed at adults and should not be played by children alone. However, in a group with adults it should not be a problem. The puzzles and interviews are aimed more at adults.

How fit do I have to be for the tour?

We recommend enjoying the tours on foot. This can be a 4-6 kilometer walk, depending on how you approach the places. It is difficult to give more precise information, as we deliberately want to give you the choice of how you proceed.

How long does a tour approximately last?

We recommend that you allow yourself plenty of time. A tour can take three to five hours, but you can also do it faster or slower, depending on what you prefer. Each tour is individual, so we give you a guideline for each district in the app.

Can the tour be played on any day of the week?
Since you not only enjoy the adventure in the app, but also very special culinary specialties from our partners, the days are accordingly limited and are based on the opening times of our partners. Depending on the tour, there are days when you cannot do the tour because we don't want you to find yourself standing in front of closed cafés or restaurants.

Are the culinary stops also suitable for vegetarians/vegans?

Yes, we have made sure that vegetarians are catered for. There are usually vegan options in every location, but we cannot guarantee this as something may be sold out. You should definitely let the local catering partners know and ask about the vegan options. The tours are not suitable for people with celiac disease. If you have any questions about food intolerances not listed here, please write to us directly.
