The cross-country skiing lessons were a lot of fun - Sigi got us "on track" really well and even skied the entire Köpfle trail with us. We were late because of a traffic jam at Feldberg in the morning, but the group waited for us. Clearly recommended!!!

So much fun! Rides were amazing, and queues were very short considering it was so close to Christmas! Longest we queued was 20mins! Plenty of food options and entertainment. Would definitely recommend and visit again

A funny tour, lots of humor and snappy sayings livened up the old town streets. Old and new stories that made Freiburg with Betty a personal experience.

John was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable and very engaging. One of the best guided walks we have been on.
