Our Hamburg Travel Guide! Hamburg is one of those cities that deserves so much more love than it gets. One of the biggest cities in Germany, Hamburg is full of charisma and charisma. Not to mention great good, interesting people, and a fantastic nightlife.
We're joined in Hamburg by former resident (and my brother) Andrew Hunter, who takes us through Hamburg's Christmas Market food and drink, as well as some to tips on getting in, out, and around the city.

As a Hamburger in exile let me say: Thank you, guys. You captured Hamburg's spirit beautifully. Now I want a Franzbrötchen.
Ha! Glad we nailed it!
@@attachetravel What ! Not even a mention of The Beatles ? hahahah
@@attachetravel No Beatles ? LOL
I only lived in Hamburg for 5 months hh has a homeless problem and antifa trash.
Outside Germany Hamburg has always been extremely underrated.
I'd believe it's because of two reasons:
1. No American Soldiers were stationed here after WW2. Which formed a lot of foreign views of Germany. Which leads into..
2. It is not a traditional old German City (thanks RAF and other big fires) but a very modern (70s Concrete), international and maritime city.
It's really not as bad as you make it sound like. Hamburg still has a lot of of nice architecture, especially in the city centre and the western parts of the city. It was mostly eastern Hamburg that was destroyed in the war.
I lived in Hamburg for a couple of years. It really is a shame that it's so underrated because it is a lovely city
And that could be considered as a preveledge. I was there about three times and never got enough to discover it over and over again
@@maltemalte2890 1.I moved to Hamburg in 2008 and I'm still fascinated of its beauty. I actually grow up in a very touristic area in the south of Germany, with a lot of american and asian tourist and I always wondered, why they prefer this place over Hamburg.
The only explanation I have for this is that the tourists just want to experience the cliché of Germany and Hamburg doesn't really fit into it.
2. I also find it a little bit strange, that Hamburg is often considered as a city without old architecture, because there is a lot of Art Nouveau buildings, Gründerzeit houses or redbrick Gothic in the districts around the Alster-lake(Aussenalster) and in the western parts of the city. In fact there are much more old buildings, than in a lot of other german cities, but unfortunately not anymore in the city centre.
I would highly recommend it, not to miss the posh districts of Eppendorf, Winterhude, Harvestehude, Uhlenhorst around the Aussenalster(Alster-lake), or the alternative neighbourhood Ottensen and also the wealty and relaxed Blankenese when you are into architecture.
I see Hamburg. I press like.
as a Hamburger, I totally agree with you that Hamburg has always been such an underrated travel destination. Sure, you do see quite a lot of tourists here but everyone always talks about Berlin, Heidelberg, Munich. I never understand how people who want to travel to Germany never have Hamburg on their radar. Sure I might be biased bc I was born and raised here but it truly is an amazing and beautiful City and if I could, I would put Hamburg in my pocket to show it to other people bc I want others to love Hamburg like I do. Hamburg is so unique. The food, the culture, the scenery, I love everything about my city and like I already said, but I do want to emphasize it again, I just wish more people would come here and experience it too At least for a short while!
Same, Ich bin auch Hamburgerin! Und I feel ya!
Hamburg is an amazing city. It feels cosmopolitan and oh-so German at the same time. Thanks for doing this episode, and so glad you’re back.
Support Attaché on Patreon dear people, this is the BEST travel guide channel on RUclips and one of if not even THE best travel show ever. They need help to keep making this amazing videos so please support them.
I visited my cousin, who lives in Hamburg, back in 2018. I knew nothing about the city, but that all changed when he showed me around and talked about its history. I fell in love instantly. Thanks for allowing me to relive some of the memories. Can't wait to return.
Hamburg is one of the best cities I've ever been to :)
We had a lot of fun there, for sure!
Hamburg is the one of most relaxing cosmopolitan city in the world, thanks for covering it, and Merry Christmas to you in advance!.
Interesting, but not a video I would share to show my friends from outside Hamburg how beautiful the city is. No Alster, no channels, no Eppendorf, Blankenese, Eimsbüttel and so on.
Also you should come again during summer, when you can sail on the Alster lake, the many parks are green and all the people are sitting outside in cafes and restaurant. Much better than in winter.
why not? consider thinking about that they can't put everything into one video. Maybe if they did a series about Hamburg they would pretty likely cover all of what you mentioned and more. I think for one video they did an amazing job :)
@@happycat85 From 16:33 minutes are nearly 15 minutes about the harbor. Other videos show in less time more of the city.
I lived in Hamburg until January. It was a brilliant year
I moved here 3 months ago, so far it's a great city. Friendly people, good food, great nightlife. The weather sucks though.
Hang in there. First summer day at the Elbstrand will make it worth it.
Well, its late autmn / winter in northern europe, so your you cannot expect too much
"are you a Hamburger or are you made of sugar?" is what i would ask you in this case
Choosing to live in Germany and complaining about the weather doesn't sound very smart
The weather is my favorite part. I lived almost under the equator line for a long time. Not a lot of rain, no snow at all, no seasons basically, hot weather year round... It sucks. But here I can finally experience something other than summer :)
The 'USP' of Hamburg is its outdoors, the beaches, the River, the Parks, the lakes, the Canals, boating, Sailing, the forests and moors, the nearby oceans. So as a first-timer i really recommend you visit in Summer, das May-August.
More Attaché is the best Christmas gift I could’ve asked for
Ha, thanks Kyron! And thanks for the Patreon support!
I am geography teacher and i am currently teaching development economics. At the start of each lesson we pick a country and check the "run down" to check the big mac price. The big mac index is part of our curriculum, and the kids loving guessing the price each lesson! Your videos bring the concept to life, thanks!!
Any city that has a good airport and/or main railway station is good enough for me. First impressions count for a lot.
Totally agree.
I love how informative you are and yet I also love how your sense of humour has continually developed through each series. I would love to do videos like this....you’re an inspiring man Mr Hunter
For getting around the city I personally can recommend "MOIA" very much as well, a cheaper (and sometimes even faster) alternative to taxis.
Edit: some of the Elbe ferry's are also included with the public transportation ticket. Really recommend that when staying for longer than a weekend ^^
Great advice, thanks!
@profdrpioneerkowhh Why the hatred? I have only taken a couple of MOIA rides so far and never had a singe problem, at 2am on a Wednesday when busses and subway weren't operating I only had to wait 3 minutes for a MOIA, the cab company I called before said I should wait over 30mins and MOIA is cheaper. Can't really discuss environmental friendliness since it is owned by VW after all and those batteries are pretty bad as well but on a long run I believe it's better than gasoline. Still, I wonder why you're laughing at me like I was a fool?
@@profdrpioneerkowhh i took a few moia rides now and never had to wait for more than 5 min. i have to admit they dont take the direct route and stop here and there to pick up other people so your ride takes a little longer than a cab but i only paid about half as much as i would have in a cab. maybe i was just lucky so far but my personal experience with moia is pretty good.
I absolutely loved Hamburg!
Thanks for doing a travel video here, Attaché!
“See, I really can make anything about food” - we hear you loud and clear!
😂
Why am I still watching this? I’ve been living here for 4 years ffs
Sang Nguyễn do you like it?
dt 504 been in love with this city ever since mate.
Sang Nguyễn i was there over the weekend.. still can’t decide between Hamburg and Berlin haha
Why you asking us?
lucky guy
Merry Christmas everybody!!!!!
Cheers!
So happy that attaché is back. Can’t get enough! Loving the layovers podcast too.
3 euro to get to the city from the airport? Compare that to the 10, 15 pounds or more now that you need to pay to get to London Bridge from Gatwick. And chances are the trains will be delayed as well. Out of context rant. Sorry.
Its even cheaper in the main portugese cities
The 2.30 Euro ticket for the S-Bahn ist just for people from 0-14 years.
If you are older you have to pay 6.30 Euro for a day ticket
For tourists - buy day tickets for public transport, which includes several harbor ferries lines which give another view of the city.
If you stay longer than 3 or 4 days, consider a visit to Ohlsdorf cemetery (sounds a bit odd as a tip for tourists) - it is one of the biggest cemeteries in the world and from the beginning it has been planned as a beautiful park as well.
Great tips, thanks!
Thanks for this. So glad you're back and this episode is perfectly timed. Been really intrigued by Hamburg and prepping for a trip there this coming year.
Great video! Been to Hamburg before and now I can't wait to go back.
Nice,professional and unforgettable both by manner of introducing the city and and "britishness" of most handsome brothers. These features being easierly combined make the film perfect.
My hometown!!!
German Christmas markets are amazing. Will check out Hamburg's next year just for that chocolate ball thing with no name.
Hurray! A new episode of Attaché \o/
Merry Christmas guys, so happy you're able to continue, best wishes for 2020, my fingers are still crossed for a Scotland visit :)
I can basically watch you talk about anything. Really happy to see the sense of humor come back in this episode, and happy to see you cover an overlooked city in Germany.
Ah, and please do Prague! Pretty pretty please!
Agree that Hamburg is way underrated! I actually went there just to go to the Minature Wunderland. Also the path along the water was scenic and great way to people watch. You should have also mentioned the gorgeous philharmonic building and that the Airbus factory is based there too.
How incredible is Minature Wunderland?! Amazing. We tried to get shots of the Airbus factory but it was too foggy :-/
Please do an episode on Taipei! In my opinion, it’s hospitality, it’s mix of culture, and affordability makes it one of my favourite cities. (Shout our to the Taipei MRT for being so efficient and clean while providing top-notch customer service)
I live in Taipei and second this! Would love to meet up with him while here too!
In this time of corona I am travelling the world at the comforts of my home via Attache, love the videos they are just the best! BTW thank you for appreciating Filipino food. Greetings from the Philippines!🇵🇭
Thanks for posting this. I went to Berlin for four weeks in January/February and thoroughly enjoyed it. Your review of that city was very accurate I thought and helpful to me as I toured the city. I look forward to travelling to other cities in Germany and I will put Hamburg on my list.
the Kunsthalle (not only free of charge, containing work by Friedrich, but also stores your bag(s) while you wander) and an other historical museum right next to the park are superb also.
Alex.....you are the best travel narrator hands down. Even though I really like Rick Steves...your style is far more entertaining.
That's really kind, thank you.
Your videos are epic! Loved this one on Hamburg. So keen to visit Germany.
Thanks so much! You'll dig it, great city.
Always nice to see another Attaché video! Merry Christmas to you guys!
Born and raised there I must say the same about it. There's a lot to explore especially in the west of the city as I saw you made it to the town hall of Altona, the former city (now borough) I grew up in. Great video and please go back soon!
Lovely greetings from Hamburg. I really have to tell you, that you made an amazing job on this video. You included so many good information 💪😍
Incredible show. I've watched all episodes. Suggest some botox! Great presentation. My favorite travel show ever. I am impressed by your experience and professional background Don't stop giving us the benefit of your insight.
Finally an episode about my home city Hamburg! Well done! I can strongly recommend coming here, Hamburg is Germany's most beautiful city. We are also Germany's "Broadway" since there is no other city with so many musicals (at the moment those are "The Lion King", "Cirque du Soleil: Paramour", "TINA - The Tina Turner Musical" and "Pretty Woman". In October 2020 Cirque du Soleil will be replaced be "Wicked").
Also Hamburg is great for Craft Beer lovers: Try "Überquell" (grea variety of beers and wood oven pizzas), the "Craft Bier Bar" or the "Ratsherrn"-brewery (with their pub "Altes Mädchen" next to it). There's also a Brewdog (that being scottish, though!).
Enjoy Hamburg!
This is great advice, thank you!
Excellent Episode. One of these days we will get all 3 Hunter Brothers in an episode together.
Also I’m slightly disappointed you didn’t cover the location where Greg almost died.
How is it that you and Alex have an American accent and the other brother has an English accent?
@@odhdhd1543 He's the long lost brother.
Sausage with cheese is the best 😍
Haha funny moment when you said, that all transports where on point. What a rare moment 😍
I love the video nails the most authentic Hamburg-weather lol
I live in Hamburg and the S-Bahn is so great!
I miss Hamburg!
He mentions the Franzbrötchen - which makes this a good review in my book.
All kidding aside, I felt like you really presented my home city very, very well! Thank you and to all visitors: welcome to what we call «Sie schönste Stadt der Welt».
You have a very distinct voice. Lovely. You could do audiobooks yourself. Loved this. I am visiting Germany in about a month. Thank you for showing us Hamburg.
I'm literally going there in just 1 week. Loved the timing here. Great video, as always!
Whenever you need some tips for my home town, just let me know! I'd be more than happy to help
Nice episode. Now, I wanna visit Hamburg. Also, Alex is looking good. 👌
Funny how brothers have different accents!! Well, I am the way but it's funny to see other people having the same type of variations.
Hamburg, my pearl :)
I love this city. Andrew is unbearably handsome. Lovely episode. Thank you!
You spelled Alex wrong.
@@attachetravel Y'see, I love this sort of banter. Of course, you are adorable too. Ahem, anyway, Hope you had a good Christmas ;-)
Thank you for coming back 😍
Our pleasure, I assure you.
It’s on my radar now ‼️
My friend was attacked by a street- walking prostitute in Hamburg for telling her he was gay as an excuse not to avail of her services. Good times
Hamburg is amazing!
As a Hamburger Deern, I have no idea how you did it but my trains are ALWAYS late😂 And you definitely have to try a Fischbrötchen they are soooo good😍 my favourite one is salmon without onions and with the honey/mustard sauce♥️
I’m living in london now and this video made me miss so many things😂
next time i’m in town i definitely have to have a Franzbrötchen again. 😂😂
And good to know for me: the price for the normal ticket increased from 3.20€ to 3.30€😂 didn’t know that
7:41
Lokmam in the "Schanze" is a very tasty Turkish Foodshop that is open late into the night. Thank me Later :)
Wonderful work as always. You and Greg are fabulous - so much so I joined your Patreon. Your videos are extremely enjoyable and well done. Plus you’ve provided some great travel guidance for me; most recently Hong Kong and Barcelona.
Wow, thanks so much James!
been a few times. great city
A good, realistic video, good job! I would recommend you to visit the Feuerschiff restaurant ( Blue Monday - free jam session ) and the Fischmarkt. Btw. that dessert is called Schneeballen.
Great representation of my home, thanks! :)
Wasn't really into this kind of topic but after seeing your vid I'm gonna sub and watch your other vids
Merry Christmas Attachè!
Also question for you guys what cities do you have planned for 2020?
An Attache episode - A Great early Christmas present.
I love Hamburg ❤️❤️❤️
I love Hamburg
I want to see him do Johannesburg one day.
So fun! Loved this!
I just finished a book set in Hamburg and was thinking I needed to do some travel research on it when this video shows up. Guess it means it’s time to start planning!
Could you tell me the name of that book? I'm from Hamburg and I would love to read a book that is set in my hometown! (If you can recommend it)
Maxi L. It’s called Your Perfect Year. I enjoyed it. It was a light, fun read. It was translated to English, so I bet it’s even better in German!
Thank you so much! I think I will give it a try!
Great video as always, looking forward to see more!
Thanks so much!
YESSS YOU'RE BACK AGAIN!
Wow didnt see that coming👍 my home town
You live in a wonderful city.
lmao That warning about the trains to the airport was hilarious.
After watching this I want to visit Hamburg. I have only been to Dusseldorf and Berlin. Want to return to Germany after Covid-19 is not an issue in regards to international travel.
Germans hate quite a bit Hamburg Hauptbahnhof because of how chaotic it could be. Me too a bit, but the fact of how well connected it is makes me have a love/hate feel towards it haha.
great video 😍
Thanks for making another video!!!
Merry Christmas🎄
This is cool! I was just there a few weeks ago
Great video. I really want to visit.
Wiki
"The term hamburger originally derives from Hamburg,[3] Germany's second-largest city. In German, Burg means "castle", "fortified settlement" or "fortified refuge" and is a widespread component of place names. The first element of the name is perhaps from Old High German hamma, referring to a bend in a river, or Middle High German hamme, referring to an enclosed area of pastureland.[4] Hamburger in German is the demonym of Hamburg, similar to frankfurter and wiener, names for other meat-based foods and demonyms of the cities of Frankfurt and Vienna (in German Wien) respectively. "
Its 3,60€ per oneway ticket, but about 6€ for a whole day ticket (Farry inclusive)
You habe to make an Episode in the Summer and Show the beautiful Parks that Are everywhere and the Beach
Great video
Thanks Kenneth!
Loved this! 'currently in Hamburg and planning to do some walking! I want to see where those lil miniatures on the first part of this entry! Where can I find that? Btw, I have just subscribed to your channel!

Thank you! Merry me!
Looking at visiting Hamburg (from the UK) "soon". Just back from a week in Berlin and hotels there seem much cheaper than Hamburg. Is Hamburg popular as a tourist destination?
You forgot to mention the world's biggest park cemetery in Ohlsdorf. And compared to other German cities, Hamburg is indeed quite expensive. Not as much as Munich, but still more expensive than Berlin for example. It can be quite hard to make a living here. AND you do not go to McDonald's! I dare you! We have lots of beautiful burger places here. Try "burgerlich" (www.burgerlich.com/locations/hamburg/) or "Otto's Burgers". Much better and not a food chain. And for my part, I am very happy to have some parts of the city that have not yet become as polished as a lot of places have become over the last decade.
Some fantastic advice, thank you!
@@attachetravel oh and I forgot: Nice music choise (siriusmo)!!!
These "apples" you ate are called "snowball" - it is a southern thing made of choux pastry ^^
I support all but one point: the public transportation! Studies show, that it is the most expensive in the country and that one in five S-Bahn-Trains is delayed or dose not run at all! With buses you have a similar problem, but since they have such a tight net in the city, you don’t realize it, in the suburbs you do! Also the living costs are after Munich and Berlin the highest in the country.
I really appreciate the RUNDOWN part, I just wish you would convert the currency to US Dollars. I'm not just saying that because I live in the U.S. but because the US Dollar is one of the most widely used currencies in the world. Many countries peg their currency to the U.S. Dollar so it would be useful not just for your U.S. audience but converting the currency in your RUNDOWN would help viewers from other countries. Love your show, keep up the great work!!
When are you going to make one on Istanbul.
If you can't remember having to wait for more than 5 minutes for public transport, you don't use it enough ;) By German standards, it may be very infuriating, actually... Great video, thank you for showing Hamburg like this
