Karen was very pleasant, well informed and generous with her time. We learned a great deal, including resetting some misperceptions we’d had about some of the history. This is a beautiful city, well worth visiting, and we recommend taking this tour to better understand the context of what you see.

Leo was fun and knowledgeable. Went out of his way to ask our interests and led a great-paced tour. Proud of his city and it showed.

Laura was a wonderful tour guide! So knowledgeable, interesting and kind. She was willing and able to answer all our questions and we learned so much about the history of Dresden. Definitely one of the best tours we’ve ever been on and we’ve taken many over the years!

It was a well spent money and we learned all about the history of town in 2 hours. The guide (Doris) was very nice and knowledgeable

The weather was terrible but the guide was informative and engaged. We enjoyed our two hours despite the rain. We learned a lot.

Very good introduction to Dresden with an overview of history to modern day. Most major attractions were seen with guidance and recommendations on how to see others. Headsets were not provided so mad it difficult with our group of 15 to hear guide at times. Laura our guide was excellent. Perfect pace and very accommodating to all questions. Look forward to using this company again. Hopefully with Headsets if group is larger than 4

Our tour was great and gave a good overview of old town Dresden. The only problem was we had around 18 people on our tour and it was very hard to hear Leo. It would have been much better if we could have heard him

Leo gave us a great tour with history and stories whist also showing his love for this city and all it stands for.

Our guide gave us an informative and well paced tour of old Dresden. She described the history of old and rebuilt buildings. Definitely a better way to understand the city than just walking around it.

Departure point
Tour begins at Schlossplatz, near the Augustus Bridge. In the middle of this square is the statue of King Friedrich August on a throne. Make sure to look for a statue of a seated king. Not standing, and not on a horse! Or copy and paste this into Google Maps and search. 3P3Q+8CR DresdenReturn details
