Die „Inszenierung“ durch den Führer wirkte auf die Dauer übertrieben und albern. Leider passte der Inhalt selten zum Thema der gebuchten Nachtwanderung. Selten Neues im Vergleich zu einer klassischen Nachtwanderung. Die Erwartung wurde nicht erfüllt. Schade!

Es war die etwas andere Stadtführung - und sie hat uns trotz des Wetters sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Im Vorfeld wurde nachgefragt, um was für eine Gruppe es sich handelt, damit sich der Guide individuell auf die Gruppe einstellen kann. Es war eine rundum gelungene Tour!
