City tours on your own
We recommend taking the tour with an accompanying person, as the cobblestones in the old town are a hindrance.
The Neustadt tour alternatively includes the circular route through the Kunsthofpassage between Alaunstrasse 70 and Görlitzer Strasse 21 to 25.
The path through the passage leads through five imaginatively designed themed courtyards with numerous boutiques, cafés and pubs - although here, too, there is sometimes thick cobblestone.
