Hesse (/ˈhɛsə/) or Hessia (German: Hessen [ˈhɛsn̩], Hessian dialect: Hesse [ˈhɛzə]) is a federal state (Land) of the Federal Republic of Germany, with just over six million inhabitants. The state capital is Wiesbaden; the largest city is Frankfurt am Main. Until the unification of Germany, the territory of Hesse was occupied by the Grand Duchy of Hesse, the Duchy of Nassau, the free city of Frankfurt and the Electorate of Hesse, known also as Hesse-Cassel. Due to divisions after World War II, the modern federal state does not cover the entire cultural region of Hesse, which includes both the State of Hesse and the area known as Rhenish Hesse (Rheinhessen) in the neighbouring state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

My boyfriend and I had a 7 hour layover in Oct of this year and decided to book a 2hr tour. We were not disappointed. Anita was our tour guide who met us at the airport and off we went on train to explore Frankfurt. Anita was very personable and knowledgeable as she led us through the city center to delve into history including rebuilding of city after bombing and seeing some of the main landmarks. I am a foodie so I loved the food market and was able to taste some of the native food dishes like green sauce and this truly amazingly delicious pastry with almonds (sorry forgot but name photo below). Loved that it was a walking tour as it was a great and uninhibited way to be introduced to a new city.

We loved this food tour, it was one of our favorite activities in Berlin! Since it was just our group Liz was able to customize it to our liking. She took us to some of her favorite spots, places we never would have found on our own. We felt like locals and oh man was the food delicious! Liz was very entertaining and charming and even helped us navigate our way to our next activity. We loved every minute of the food tour and highly recommend Liz!

We didn't want to eat in an anonymous restaurant at a Frankfurt airport hotel and used TripAdvisor to find this place. A very traditional pub/restaurant serving good German food. Pub grub as we would say in England, and nothing wrong with that. I enjoyed a Goulash soup followed by Wiener Schnitzel! Very good it was too. Service was friendly and English spoken. Reasonable price as well. A good pit stop on our way back to England having seen the Grand Prix at the Nurburgring!
