Mohammed H, Nov 2017
The tour was great and full of activities. It lasted 7 hours. The guide was kind and charming. The time passed so fast due to his engaging stories. He also was so flexible and gave us space whenever we needed it, like when we wanted to visit the market. It is an amazing tour for those who like comfort, getting to know real Germans, loves to see small towns and the Hansen style of architecture. It truly is a must if you are in Hamburg, especially if you have already seen the city.

Our driver was great and the tour of Hamburg and the surrounding villages was a wonderful way to get the flavor of the city. We were treated like royalty!!

Buxtehude war sehr schön...

Evelyne_M, Sep 2023
Buxtehude war sehr schön und wir hätten es dort auch länger ausgehalten. Leider ist die Fahrt nach Lüneburg sehr lang. Lübeck noch anzusehen, ist mit fünf Stunden unmöglich. Zudem wäre eine Grundausstattung von 4-5 Regenschirmen in jedem Tourenauto wünschenswert.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Danke für die Bewertung die nach 10 Jahren der Tätigkeit die erste schlechte ist die wir erhalten. Es überrascht mich auch sehr, zumal ich auf der Tour wiederholt nachgefragt habe, wie es euch gefällt und immer war alles ganz toll. Es würde allen Touranbietern bestimmt mit etwas mehr Ehrlichkeit geholfen werden. Auch würde es Euch helfen die Tourbeschreibung einmal durchzulesen: ihr könnt aus den drei Städten Buxtehude, Lüneburg und Lübeck zwei aussuchen. Nirgends steht, dass wir drei anfahren. Dennoch wünsche ich alles Liebe und Gute
