Discover Düsseldorf’s Nightlife on a Girls-Only Tour
If you’re searching for a fun, lively way to explore Düsseldorf’s old town with friends, this girls-only tour might just be your perfect evening. For $56 per person, you’ll spend about three hours immersed in the local party scene, with no boring history lessons—just beer, games, and plenty of laughs. Your guide will lead you through a lively route packed with local anecdotes, party shots, and interactive games, making it ideal for bachelorette parties, birthdays, or just a fun night out with friends.
What we really love about this tour is its social vibe—it’s designed to bring friends closer, whether through drinking games like the Radschlag contest or sharing stories about Düsseldorf’s famous ‘longest bar in the world’. Plus, it’s all outdoors and in the heart of Old Town, giving you a genuine feel for the city’s energetic nightlife scene. The inclusion of local beer and a snack keeps the experience grounded in authentic Düsseldorf flavor.
A potential consideration is that this is a rain-or-shine outdoor tour, so if bad weather is forecast, you might want to plan accordingly or bring an umbrella. Also, since seats in the pub stop are not guaranteed, it’s best to be prepared for standing or limited seating during that part of the tour.
This experience suits groups looking for a lighthearted, engaging evening with friends—especially if you enjoy beer, games, and a lively atmosphere. If you’re a fan of interactive, social outings that skip the historical info in favor of fun, this could be your highlight in Düsseldorf.

An In-Depth Look at the Tour Experience
What’s Included and How the Price Reflects Value
At $56 per person, this tour offers a reasonable way to spend an evening out, especially with the inclusion of a local Altbier and a snack. You also get at least five party shots and a can of Hugo or similar drink, which keeps the mood lively without extra costs. Keep in mind, hotel pickup and drop-off are not included, so you’ll need to reach the meeting point at Carlsplatz and Mittelstraße yourself. Considering the cost of drinks and entertainment, it provides good value for groups wanting an all-in-one, guided night of fun.
The Itinerary: Step-by-Step
The tour kicks off at Carlsplatz, a bustling square known for its lively markets and cafes. Here, you’ll start with a can of Hugo, a refreshing drink perfect for warming up the group. From there, your guide—probably a friendly local—will lead you through the Old Town streets, sharing stories about Düsseldorf’s famous beer culture and fascinating anecdotes about the city’s nightlife.
As you stroll, you’ll stop at various bars to try the locally brewed Altbier, which is a dark, slightly bitter beer that’s deeply tied to the city’s identity. These stops are not just about drinking but about experiencing the local vibe—from lively pubs to cozy taverns. You’ll learn why Düsseldorf’s Old Town is called “the longest bar in the world”, a nickname reflecting its concentration of vibrant pubs and bars packed into a small area.
Midway through, you’ll get a chance to enjoy a snack—either currywurst or fries—so you’re not just drinking on an empty stomach. This break is appreciated, especially since the tour involves about 2 kilometers of walking on cobblestones, which adds to the authentic atmosphere but can be tiring if you’re not used to walking.
Next, the games come into play. The Radschlag contest challenges your balance—think of it as a fun, friendly competition for medals—and the quiz keeps everyone engaged. These activities, combined with photos for Instagram, make the experience lively and memorable.
The tour concludes at a popular bar on Bolker Straße with a final party shot and music to wind down. Since this bar is on three floors with party music, it’s an energetic spot to keep the night going if you wish.

One reviewer, Lisa, mentions that their guide was “a very nice lady,” but she felt a bit more local insight about Düsseldorf would have added to the experience. This highlights that while the tour is fun, it might not dive into deep city history—which is fine if you’re more interested in the social, party atmosphere.
Another point is that the seats in the pub stop are not guaranteed, so if you’re planning to relax or take photos during that part, be prepared for standing. The outdoor nature of the tour means it’s weather-dependent, so check the forecast.
