Courtyards and passage tour with Mr Langenham - absolutely recommended!!! - Wonderful and unforgettable tour with guide Dirk Langenhan through the courtyards and exhibition halls. So sympathetic and extremely competent, even long-established Leipzigers are surprised, learn the unknown and discover hidden places. He shows and explains all facets and inspires the city, its history and tradition - simply fantastic. In addition, a very individual small group tour in which he responded wonderfully to all questions. Thank you very much!!!

A must for Leipzig fans! - Highly recommended guided tour of the exhibition halls and passages in Leipzig city centre. Our guide really knew an interesting story about each house. 90 minutes was far too short for us.

90 minutes Leipzig exclusive - Recommended guided tour with very dedicated tour guide. We have visited Leipzig many times before, but we have not been guided through the city so enchantingly. Also the recommended cafe was entirely to our taste. We will definitely come back.

Discover the city of Leipzig with whimsy. - I did the tour together with a friend. The guide greeted us very friendly and we dived directly into the Leipzig courtyards and passages. In addition to the many architectural and urban historical features, we have also been able to experience small and large anecdotes time and again, which have made the tour very interesting and entertaining. We can only recommend the tour and the guide. We have already booked the tour of the South Cemetery.
