• 5Oleg did a great job! He...

  Oleg did a great job! He went above and beyond on time and amount of information. Unfortunately we had just flown in earlier in the day and were tired for a long tour.

• 5Oleg Dubinskii, an amazing tour guide!

  Oleg was one of the best guides I have ever had. He walked with us in a slow and deliberate pace, expertly and passionatley teaching us the history of our surroundings. His knowledge of the area and it's stories was incredible as he made each one come to life. And when our 3 hours of time was coming to an end, he asked us if we had the energy to keep going as there was much more he wanted us to see. Of course we said yes, and our tour was closer to 4.5 hours. I feel like we had bonded and shared a lot, getting to know each other a bit. He usually does these tours once a week, while he full time job is a research scientist. His accent was easy to understand and he left lots of time for questions and further discussion on each topic. I would highly recommend Oleg, and should we ever find ourselves in Franfurt again, I woud request him~

About Frankfurt

Frankfurt is a river city in Hesse, a financial centre of glass towers beside a rebuilt old town, with museums along the Main and apple-wine taverns.

Frankfurt am Main stands on the river Main, and its cluster of skyscrapers, nicknamed Mainhattan, gives it a skyline unusual for Germany. The old town square, the Römerberg, with its half-timbered houses and the stepped-gable Römer town hall, was reconstructed after the bombing of 1944. The Kaiserdom, a red sandstone cathedral, was the coronation church of Holy Roman emperors, and the Paulskirche saw Germany's first freely elected parliament meet in 1848.

Top-ranked sights in Frankfurt: Römerberg Square, Lake Titisee, Frankfurt Cathedral (Frankfurter Dom).
