About the Greeter concept

The concept of a ‘welcome visitor program’ was first implemented in 1992 by American Lynn Brooks and her Big Apple Greeters in New York City, the first greeter programme of its kind. Now, all over the world, including in Wiesbaden since 2025, curious visitors to the city are brought together with enthusiastic residents. We Greeters are not trained city guides, but we love our city or our neighbourhood and want to give other people a personal insight into it. We accompany you through the city without payment and without a tip.
