Know More about this tour

A city steeped in history

Take the bus tour to Karl-Marx-Haus, where the famous radical was born. The house was opened in 1947 and renovated in 1983 and houses exhibits on Marx's personal history, volumes of poetry, original letters and photographs with personal dedications. There is also the chance to witness a collection of rare first editions and international editions of Marx’s works, as well as displays on the development of socialism in the 19th century. Marvel at the Porta Nigra (Latin for black gate), a large Roman city gate which is today the largest Roman city gate north of the Alps and has been designated a World Heritage Site. At the south side of the Porta Nigra, remains of Roman columns line the last 100m of the street leading to the gate. Take a guided tour in summer months and admire the structure which remains almost untouched to the reconstruction ordered by Napoleon.

Let City Sightseeing highlight all the things to see and do in Trier

Hop off at the Barbarathermen (or The Barbara Baths) where a viewing platform allows for a fantastic overview of the entire system comprising the bath’s foundations, cellars and under-floor heating system, all of which survived a 17th-century raid for stones to build a school. Take the bus tour to Zurlaubener Ufer, a charming district situated on the banks of the Moselle river. Take a river trip, admire the fishing boats and enjoy the rustic character of the Zurlauben bank. Take time out and relax in one of the riverside beer gardens. A number of the old fishermen’s houses have been converted into restaurants and pubs; the perfect place to finish your day.
