There is an incredible amount to discover in Hamburg. Not for nothing it is called: "Hamburg my pearl". The Hamburg Card offers a great opportunity to explore the city.  We have picked out a few highlights of the Hamburg CARD and put together a small day program for you.

What is the Hamburg CARD? The Hamburg CARD not only gives you free rides on buses, trains and harbor ferries, but also discounts of up to 50%. The card is already worthwhile if you visit only one sight. Just the thing to discover Hamburg's highlights.

While  St. Pauli's party people are still getting their beauty sleep, we start our day on the famous  Reeperbahn with a visit to the Panoptikum. Here you can meet numerous personalities who have turned to wax. From Angela Merkel to Ed Sheeran to Empress Sissi, you can get up close and personal with many (wax) celebrities. The Panoptikum is certainly also a great highlight when you're out and about with your little ones. Who knows if they will ever get so close to their favorite singers or other childhood stars.

With the Hamburg CARD you get a 10% discount on the regular admission price.

After the visit to the Panoptikum, a detour to the port of Hamburg is a good idea, as there is not quite as much hustle and bustle along the promenade at midday. The ships are already underway on the Elbe, so you can explore the harbour at your leisure and spot the first boats on the water. You can reach the harbour either on foot or by taking the U3 underground line to Landungsbrücken. From there you can walk to the Cap San Diego - the "hands-on museum". The Cap San Diego was built in 1961 as a general cargo ship and is still in working order today. On about 20 days a year, it sails at a speed of 11,650 hp. There is a lot to discover here, such as the engine room or the bridge. The museum ship can be visited daily from 10:00 to 18:00.

With the Hamburg CARD there is also a 15% discount on the regular admission price.

After your meal, you continue from the Cap San Diego along the harbour promenade to your next destination. The harbour promenade has recently been renamed the Jan Fedder Promenade and leads you towards HafenCity, where the next stop is: the Elbphilharmonie.  Here you can not only marvel at the unique glass wave architecture of the famous concert hall, visitors can even tour the Elbphilharmonie free of charge and enjoy the fantastic view over the harbour and the Elbe.

With the Hamburg CARD there is a 10% discount in the Plaza Shop and the Visitor Centre (except on books).

Now it's getting sweet: the Chocoversum can be reached from the Elbphilharmonie in just a few minutes by public transport or while walking. The interactive museum will make chocolate lovers' hearts beat faster. At the Chocoversum you can not only learn all about the production of chocolate, but also create your very own chocolate bar.

The Hamburg CARD gives you a 15% discount on the entrance fee to the Chocoversum.

The grand finale of the day is the St. Michaelis Church, also known as the "Michel" in Hamburg. It is only a short bus ride from the Chocoversum to St. Michael's Church. This sight is a special highlight not only during the day but also at night, when you can take the lift up to the platform of the tower and enjoy the magnificent view of the lights of Hamburg.

With the Hamburg CARD you get a 10% discount on the entrance fee at Nachtmichel.
