This Tour Was Fabulous!

Nicole_H, Jun 2026
This tour was fabulous! One of the best tours I have taken anywhere. All of the great architectural wonders of Dresden were easily walkable. Wolfgang is a history enthusiast and his excitement to share the great history of Dresden made the tour both fun and fascinating. My friends who were with me had unknowingly booked the same private tour for us the next day, and Wolfgang kindly made arrangements for us to do another tour with him that included a boat trip down the Elba and a tour of the royal palace (both are highly recommended!). There is so much history in the city of Dresden. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about it with an expert who so enjoys what he does!
