Angela and Marcelo Meyer

The cable car in Cologne has been operating since 1957 and was the first cable car in Europe to cross a river.

It carries over 2,000 passengers daily, and more than 15 million people have crossed the Rhine using this cable car throughout its history of over 50 years.

The ride is wonderful, offering unforgettable views of the city and the Rhine River. It is an unmissable experience, as you can board the cable car on the right bank of the Rhine and arrive at the opposite bank—almost right inside the Cologne Zoo.

Two incredible experiences! Don't miss out!
