Laura – United States

Amazing! The guide was wonderful and sweet and super helpful. I was embarrassed I didn’t speak German and she still shared stuff in English!

S
Stephen – United States

It was good. We don’t speak German, and we knew it was a German tour, so we missed a lot of the information. We took the tour because an English one wasn’t available. It was still good though.
