A great tour for the whole family! - Wonderful tour full of history but also wonderful food/beer stop! The highlight was the dessert at the end, which I HIGHLY recommend getting the Apple Strudel! We tried it everywhere over the course of our three weeks in Germany, Austria and the Czech Republic and of everywhere we went, this was the best Apple strudel we’ve ever had! Definitely recommend this well-rounded tour!

Highly recommend. - Really fantastic tour. We arrived knowing very little of Heidelberg and Sarah, our guide, filled us with so much information. She is very knowledgeable of this city and expertly shared information about this city and its history. Sarah was able to tell us stories of Heidelberg one does not find in a tour book. We learned a ton. This tour was the highlight of our stay in Heidelberg. Highly recommend!!!
