Highlights

Join a Local Host for a Surprise Walk through Leipzig and experience the city in a more spontaneous and authentic way. Instead of following a fixed route, your Local adapts the walk to the moment, creating space for genuine local encounters and unexpected discoveries. You might pass by well-known landmarks or find yourself in quieter corners that reflect everyday life in Leipzig. Your Local Host will share insights, stories, and subtle details that are often missed, offering a perspective rooted in lived experience. This is not about ticking off landmarks, but about discovering Leipzig in a way that feels effortless, authentic, and distinctly your own. This experience is ideal if you prefer spontaneity over structure and want to explore Leipzig through real moments rather than a set itinerary. Each walk is shaped by the Local, the group, and the atmosphere of the day, making every experience unique.

About Leipzig

Leipzig is a Saxon city of music, trade fairs and coffee houses, where Bach worked and where the peaceful protests of 1989 began.

Leipzig has been a trading city since the Middle Ages, and its fairs gave it arcades, courtyards and merchants' houses. Johann Sebastian Bach was cantor at the Thomaskirche from 1723 until his death, and the Thomanerchor, the boys' choir, has sung there since 1212. The Nikolaikirche was the starting point of the Monday demonstrations of 1989, and the 91-metre Monument to the Battle of the Nations marks the great battle of 1813.

Top-ranked sights in Leipzig: St Nicholas Church (Nikolaikirche), St. Thomas Church (Thomaskirche), Leipzig Zoo (Zoologischer Garten Leipzig).
