Highlights
- Old Market Square (Altmarkt) - The tour begins by picking you up at your Dresden hotel, Airbnb or elsewhere in Dresden. Our comfortable vehicle will then transport you to the German part of the National Park. The snacks and beverages along the way in combination with an informative description of the passing landmarks will make the journey over in no time.
- Bastei Bridge - Our first destination is the magnificent Bastei Bridge (Saxon Switzerland, Germany). The breathtaking view of the Elbe River Canyon, high above which the Bridge perches, will be engrained into your memory forever. Watching the sunrise above the unique sandstone pinnacles is a priceless experience.
- Neurathen Castle - The easy scenic walk across the Bastei Bridge is finished by an excursion of the medieval castle ruins of Felsenburg Neurathen (13th cen.), located at the other end of the Bastei Bridge.
- Decinsky Sneznik (Hoher Schneeberg) - The following jurney takes us over the border to the Bohemian (Czech) part of the National Park. First we will visit Sneznik- lookout from 19. century. The views will be spectacular. In good weather you will be able to see all surrooundings including Dresden and the Bohemian Saxon Switzerland national park. In summer you will have the option instead of walking take the scooter for the way down the hill (fee not included since not always available).landscape.
- Tisá - Before exploring the Tyssa sandstone labyrinth, a rich lunch in the local-cousine style will be served to you (vegeterian options available), including a drink of your choice.
- Tiske steny - Finally, the Chronicles of Narnia filming site will be visited - the Tyssa Walls. While famous among rock-climbers and locals, this place remains relatively unknown to the international public, in spite of the Narnia movie having been filmed there. You will surely appreciate the lack of crowds, so typical of the historical European cities or the other natural monuments. The fantasy atmosphere of the labyrinth as well as the upper platform view will make this your own personal Narnia experience.
The tour will end by dropping you off in Dresden at your accommodation or elsewhere in the city.

This trip is must! - We had an amazing day with our tour guide Dalibora and driver Vclav touring Saxon Switzerland National Park and surrounding. We were in awe of nature. Beautiful landscapes and interesting rock formations. They picked us up from our Airbnb in Dresden. They provided with us water bottles and snacks through out the day. Lunch was included. And it was tasty Czech cuisine. Dalibora took time to explain and answer any questions we had along the way. Highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Dresden.

Blown Away. RECOMMEND IT 100% - Love it. Love it. Love it or should I say loved it. The trip is carefully planned, giving an individual enough time to soak in, rest , enjoy every moment. This trip is a Must experience. We had wonderful Paul who picked us up in the morning, and we truly for the first time felt like and also indeed called him as family by the end . A connection like this is rare and hope reapers can read and understand how they make you feel.
Joseph was a well read guide, sharing all necessary details and beyond. He had an answer to all our inquisitive questions.
Bastei Bridge. The walk in the Czech side, marveling at the stone formations and the Lunch. Oh My everything gets a 5***** . And it is isnât easy to get a 5 from a blogger like me .
Paul even went ahead n surprised us with something as we were marking our wedding anniversary.
Loved it. Do not thing twice and book with them. They are the BEST

Beautiful Day in the Countryside - It was a great day out in the country, beautiful scenery. Our driver Paul and tour guide Paul were great. They really looked out for us, there is a lot of hiking involved, steep and at some points very rocky, at one point we turned back from the trail and The 2 Paulâs coordinated to pick us up at bottom of trail and take us to the restaurant to wait for the rest of the group. That was above and beyond service.
Lunch was good, we had snacks packed for us in the van, which was very nice.
All in all we enjoyed the day. We are not use to hiking, the rest of the group did not have the issues we did, but we are quite a bit older! Our driver and tour guide were wonderful.

Fabulous - George and Thomas were wonderful. The trail to the arch was a little bit difficult for me, but I made it and it was worth it.

A beautiful day in the forest - Sherry/Sharks and Pavel made for a wonderful tour experience. Both were knowledgeable and engaging.
The scenery was wonderful, the time at the destinations was perfect, and I can't imagine a better day seeing the countryside.
I've taken several trips with viator and this has been my favorite.
