Private tours are the best way to see the sites

If you want the best experience visiting Germany’s beautiful sites-A private tour is the way to go. Mike picked us up promptly & we drove in an extremely comfortable car to Heidelberg. His tour was carefully curated & we saw the best of the city. A week before our trip I hurt my knee & Mike was able to tailor our trip to a comfortable pace-that wouldn’t have happened with a tour bus. He took us to a wonderful restaurant for an authentic German meal. It was a lovely day!

We had an amazing experience with Michael booking Heidelberg city center and castle to Rothenburg. Michael provided a detailed review of the castle from decades past to current. Michael was an excellent driver and tour guide. He was professional, detailed, polite and we felt 100% very safe with him.

Ellen was wonderful ans very adaptive to our needs. We booked a private tour as my wife had been recovering from a broken leg and only recently began walking very slowly in it.

Great experience, castle, and two wineries!

Carl was awesome and anticipated our every need including some snacks for breakfast. He was amazingly flexible when stated we would like to see a castle on this our trip. He knew of a great one that also had wine. Based on our wine preferences, he was able to suggest some great wines that matched our tastes while also introducing us to some varietals we hadn't experienced before. We were able to meet some of the winery owners. They were very welcoming and proud to share their wines with us. Would definitely book with Carl again in the future.

Guided Rothenburg Day Trip from Frankfurt

ALAN_M, Sep 2025

Awesome Day In Rothenburg!

4 of us in a Van to Rothenburg. Thomas was the guide. About 2 1/2 hours from Frankfurt. Spent 4 hours in Rothenburg. First 2 hours walking around with Thomas narrated. Also, a visit to a Medieval Museum. Probably 20 minutes of the 2 hours. Then 2 hours on our own. Lunch took about an hour at an Italian Restaurant to eat Pizza. Then an hour to walk around and take pictures and window shop. Thomas was gracious enough as we were leaving town to take us to an area of the town wall that we could spend about 15 minutes to climb the steep steps and walk a couple of minutes along the covered walkway atop the wall. Highly recommend this part of the trip. So, after approximately 4 hours and 15-20 minutes in Rothenburg we headed back to Frankfurt . The trip back to Frankfurt was slightly over 2 hours instead of 2 1/2 hours going mainly because Thomas did not have to narrate as much and also a faster trip on the Auto Bahn and less traffic. In the end an outstanding day and way to see Rothenburg when you are seeing a city a day on vacation. Finally, Thomas our guide was exceptional!

He was very accommodating in picking us up from our hotel and making sure we were taken care of. We loved our tour and highly recommend it!
