Enjoyable walking tour of the old town - There was just my wife and I on the tour, booked last minute. Rythyma led the tour and gave us a great overview of the old town and its history.

Super informative and fun tour! - Highly recommend Viktor's tour of Heidelberg! Communication beforehand was really helpful. We walked all over Heidelberg with Viktor, who is a student in the city, so he had really good tips for places to eat/drink, and interesting stories about the history of the city. This was genuinely such a fun experience despite it being rainy and cold.

Communicative and Fun Tour - Rythyma was a friendly and enthusiastic guide who gave us a great overview of the wonderful city of Heidelberg. There were only four of us on the tour which made it seem more personal. As a student she knew a lot about the University and it was very interesting to find out some of the less well known information. She shared info about restaurants, bars and other highlights at the end of the tour and was very communicative.

Nice tour - Our tour was rescheduled a little earlier than we had planned, but we made it and had a nice time. Our guide had only lived in Germany a couple of years so her knowledge was more about the university than the history of heidelberg, but was still very interesting. She was very nice.

Wanted more facts - Tour guide was very personable and charming however she was not as knowledgeable of Heidelbergs history, statues, etc as our guide in Frankfurt. The tour focused more on the university’s history than Heidelberg’s history.
