Lopa_P, Jul 2026

Potsdam & Sans Souci

Good tour. Suzsanna and Mattie were very good and Susanna is very knowledgeable. I think the Sans Souci Palace visit should include a visit to the paintings gallery and there should be a stop off in Potsdam Town to see the Dutch style houses but otherwise a good tour overall.

Go rococo

Sanssouci Palace is an excellent example of 18th century excess, with fantastically preserved rococo details. If you’ve been on any (or many) of the obligatory European palace tours, you’ll appreciate that Sanssouci is small: just 11 rooms that you can cover in half an hour. The rest of the Potsdam tour is just ok, with brief views of forests, lakes and the Bridge of Spies. Our guide was authoritative and helped make the quotidian parts of the tour more interesting.

I went on this tour solo on July 9th and had a great time. Tour guide, Susan, was incredible and a wealth of knowledge on large variety of subjects which made the trip extra entertaining. I have done many of these types of tours over the years and I can confidently say that Susan was the best guide I have ever had. Highly recommend!
