Planning a bachelor or bachelorette party in a city as lively and varied as Frankfurt? This 4-hour private pub crawl promises to be an energetic way to celebrate, guided by friendly hosts and packed with drinks and fun. While some guests mention a few hiccups, the overall experience offers a fantastic glimpse into Frankfurt’s nightlife scene—especially if you’re after a social, relaxed evening full of drinks and camaraderie.
What stood out to us? First, the personalized touch of a private guide makes a difference, helping you navigate the city’s bars with ease. Second, the free shots at each stop and wristbands for bar access provide real value, especially in crowded venues. Lastly, the entry to clubs included saves you time and hassle, allowing you to keep the party rolling without long lines. That said, some reviews feel the guide’s energy could be more engaging, and the experience might be more enjoyable if your group is open to a guided social vibe rather than a solo pub adventure.
This tour is best suited for fun-loving groups, especially those celebrating an upcoming wedding or just seeking a lively night out in Frankfurt. If you’re looking for a structured, social experience with drinks included, this pub crawl could be a hit. But if you prefer exploring on your own or want a more intimate, less guided evening, it might be worth considering other options.

The Detailed Breakdown of the Frankfurt Pub Crawl Experience
Love the evening vibe? Here are more after-sunset activities we've covered in Frankfurt
Starting Point: Kleine Rittergasse 6 and the Meeting at Hooters
The tour begins at Kleine Rittergasse 6, with the option to meet in front of Hooters in Old Sachsenhausen. This location is central, easy to find, and sets a casual tone for the evening ahead. Guests are greeted by a friendly guide—though the tour’s reviews suggest some guides may vary in enthusiasm, the most important part is the organized start and clear instructions.
Initial Shots and Atmosphere: Setting the Mood
As soon as you gather, you’re treated to a welcome shot—a nice touch that breaks the ice and gets everyone in the party mood. Guests have mentioned that these shots are delicious, which is promising for those who appreciate good quality drinks early on. The wristbands given out are practical, allowing quick entry into full bars and clubs—especially helpful if spots are crowded.
The Secret Stops: What Makes Them Special?
The three secret stops are spaced out over the course of the evening, each lasting about an hour. These venues are chosen to showcase Frankfurt’s diversity: perhaps a cozy pub with excellent local beers, a lively bar with a great atmosphere, or a trendy spot with stylish decor. Though the exact venues are kept under wraps until the tour, reviewers note that the variety keeps the experience fresh.
One reviewer commented, “The shots were delicious and with the wristband you could easily get into the sometimes full bars and clubs, which was super practical.” This highlights how the wristbands and entry included in the tour are real benefits, especially in busy nightlife spots.

The tour’s guided nature is both an advantage and a potential drawback. On one hand, having a local guide helps you navigate the city’s lively spots without fuss. On the other, a less energetic guide might not fully ignite the atmosphere. As one reviewer put it, “our guide didn’t ignite like that… but it could also have been because of the crazy group.” The guide’s role is to facilitate, keep the momentum going, and help you feel comfortable, but the overall vibe can depend heavily on group dynamics and guide enthusiasm.

Shots and Socializing: The Heart of the Tour
Throughout the night, you’ll get additional free shots at each location, making sure everyone stays in high spirits. These shots are a highlight for many, with reviews mentioning they’re “delicious,” and the wristband system helping guests easily access them, even in busy venues. It’s a simple but effective way to keep the party lively.
The Finale: Club Entry and End of Tour
After four hours of bar-hopping, the tour typically concludes back at the initial meeting point. The club entry included is a significant perk, letting you skip long lines and jump straight into Frankfurt’s nightlife. This is especially helpful for groups eager to dance or continue the celebration without interruption.
What’s Included & What’s Not
The package offers a lot of value: your private guide, welcome shots, one free shot per venue, free shots throughout the night, and entry to clubs. Since the tour has been running since 2008, it’s a trusted option that’s refined its process over time.
However, additional drinks in bars or clubs are not included, which means you’ll pay extra if you want cocktails or premium beverages. Also, transportation between venues is not provided, so expect to walk or arrange your own rides if needed.
The Real Deal: Authenticity and Value
While some reviews express a desire for more energy from the guide, others appreciate the convenience. For instance, “you could have done this without a guide,” suggests that experienced pub crawlers might prefer exploring independently. But for those new to Frankfurt or craving a social, guided experience, the tour offers a structured way to discover the city’s vibrant nightlife.
The price point is reasonable considering the inclusions, especially the club entry and free shots. For groups wanting a fun, low-stress night out with some guidance, it’s an affordable option that balances value and entertainment.
Who Will Love This Tour?
This experience is best suited for groups looking to kick off a bachelor(ette) celebration or a lively night out in Frankfurt. It’s perfect for those who enjoy socializing, sampling different drinks, and skipping the typical hassle of bar hopping solo. The inclusive nature makes it a convenient choice for travelers unfamiliar with the city’s nightlife scene.
However, if your group prefers exploring on your own, or you desire a more intimate, less structured evening, you might find this tour a bit too guided or commercial. Also, if you’re not into drinking or have younger travelers, the alcohol focus might not be ideal.
Final Thoughts: Is It Worth It?
This pub crawl offers a fun, lively way to experience Frankfurt’s nightlife, especially with the inclusion of free shots and club entry. The personal guide adds a layer of comfort and local insight, although the level of enthusiasm can vary.
You’ll love the convenience of skipping queues and the variety of venues, which keeps things fresh and interesting. The tour’s four-hour duration strikes a good balance—long enough to enjoy multiple venues without feeling rushed.
On the downside, some guests have noted that the guide’s energy could be more engaging, and the experience might feel a bit scripted. But overall, it’s a practical option, especially for groups seeking a social, hassle-free night with drinks included.
In all, if you’re after a mix of socializing, drinks, and easy access to Frankfurt’s nightlife, this pub crawl is worth considering—just go with an open mind and a fun attitude.
