What to skip in Hamburg
Built from every Hamburg verdict we publish. Each links to the full reasoning and what to do instead.
Skip this option
- Rental car, from Hamburg airport to the city: which way?
- One city as a day trip, from Hamburg or Berlin?
- A cheap room far outside the center, from Where should you stay in Hamburg?
Only if it fits your trip
- Is the Hamburg Card worth it?: It depends on your plan: the 3-day Hamburg Card costs EUR 35.90 against EUR 24.60 for three HVV day tickets, so it needs about EUR 11 of discounts to pay off, which the Kunsthalle plus a harbor cruise just about cover. It discounts tickets but includes no free entry, so walkers, Deutschlandticket holders and free-sight itineraries should skip it.
