Es war wunderbar organisiert und unsere Führerin war einfach genial! Mit Charme, Witz und tollem Fachwissen hat sie unserer Gruppe die Geschichte nahegebracht! Sehr gut waren auch die Bilder vor und nach dem Wiederaufbau der Gebäude!! Vielen Dank dafür!!

Die Stadtführerin war sehr kompetent, hat ausführlich mit sehr viel Hintergrundwissen erzählt. Sie war eine sehr rücksichtsvolle Frau und hat nicht nach Stechuhr gearbeitet. Für uns Nicht-Dresdner war die Führung perfekt. Alles Wissenswerte hat man in dieser kurzen Zeit erfahren. Bestens weiter zu empfehlen.
