Auf der Musikalischen SpitzenTour durch Plauen im Vogtland werden die Reisenden nicht nur zu Zuhörerinnen und Zuhörern, sondern zu aktiven Mitgestaltenden. Der "SorgenfreiExpress", unsere mobile Schatzkiste, wartet auf Sie, um mit ihnen für anderthalb Stunden in ein anderes Zeitalter zu verschwinden. Arion lädt sie ein, kleine Begleitinstrumente auszuprobieren – von feinen Rhythmusgebern bis zu charmanten Klangaccessoires – und so selbst Teil der musikalischen Szenerie zu werden. Dazu kommen historische Requisiten, die er mit einem Augenzwinkern und viel Hintergrundwissen präsentiert: Sie öffnen Türen zu Plauens Blütezeit als Stickerei-Metropole, lassen alte Geschichten greifbar werden und verleihen der Tour einen spielerischen, fast theatralischen Charakter. So entsteht ein Erlebnis, das gleichermaßen zum Staunen, Schmunzeln und Mitmachen einlädt.

They call it white gold, and men were once imprisoned over it. In a vault beneath Dresden, a young alchemist promised his king real gold, failed, and handed Europe its first true porcelain instead. Dresden is full of stories like that, and this self-guided walking tour walks you straight to them. Follow the route on your phone as it narrates a city bombed to ash in the last winter of the war, then rebuilt from its own rubble and from old paintings. See the Frauenkirche pieced back together from its scorched original stones. Meet the ruler whose heart, they say, still beats when a beautiful woman passes. Uncover the Green Vault heist that stunned the world. There is no guide to keep pace with and no fixed departure. This Dresden audio tour runs offline, pausing and resuming whenever you want. Over 25,000 travelers have used our self-guided tours, and every one comes with a full refund guarantee.
