It would be important to have... - It would be important to have a suggestion of a route to follow, at the times of visits, when we are without the driver, to better take advantage of the details. Please note that on Sundays most shops will be closed. The sending of the driver's location by whatsapp and/or email should be standardized to facilitate departures. In the description of the package it would be interesting to inform the suggested departure times of each place visited.

Heidelberg and Rothenburg Day Tour - Our driver, Moaz, arrived promptly in a beautiful, clean Mercedes v class van supplied with water and candies, and whisked us away to Heidelberg, where we toured the castle, the church and the old bridge. (Go early, because the town gets overwhelmed with the addition of the bus tours.) There was plenty more to do-shops and cafes to explore, but unfortunately the timeline of the tour did not allow for that. We hopped back in the van and made the journey to Rothenburg, the fairy tale town. This is such a majestic town and deserves a full day of availability to properly tour all aspects. The half timbered houses and Christmas shops were inviting. We toured St. Jakob’s Church and the Crime Museum. I would have loved to walk the perimeter walls that enclose the town, but time did not allow. We indulged in a schneeball, the local pastry, and that was a nice treat. We really enjoyed our day and Moaz was great. I have rated this tour 4 stars instead of 5 only because there was not enough time to appropriately visit all highlights in both cities. There is at least 4 hours of driving throughout the tour and I wish we had allotted one day to each city instead of squeezing them both into 1 tour.
