Wonderful Day - Tomas was amazing! It was a lovely day trip to the three stops where he allowed us both free time and time with him getting ourselves oriented. We never felt rushed and always safe with him on the long-ish car rides. Be ready for the 2.5 hour trip back to Munich, but he made it very pleasant and comfortable. I think he went above and beyond to make our journey memorable and educational. I would recommend for couples or families with older children.

Highly recommended! - My family and I booked a private day trip from Munich To Harburg, Dinkelsbuhl & Rothenburg and had the most amazing time. Our driver, Tomas, was absolutely fantastic! He was punctual, a safe driver, and very knowledgeable. He showed us
around the towns we visited and provided lots of interesting facts. This day trip was definitely a highlight of our trip to Germany and I would highly recommended this trip to everyone!

Above and Beyond - Shpendi was amazing! He went above and beyond to help us have the best day possible. My father is disabled and he helped him with his walker and helped us find places that were accessible to him. He even made lunch reservations for us. Although he was just supposed to be a driver, he walked with us around town and showed us some of the important sights. He really was great! Ask for Shpendi if you are taking a drive to Rothenberg!!

Munich invites to... - Munich, or Munich is simply the city! The city of culture, the city of entertainment, the city of beer and fun... Munich is the inspiration to spend a good time and to enjoy a landscape, a monument, the simplicity and authenticity of good service both in restoration and in guidance to visit. Munich inspires me to be authentic, to enjoy walking through the city park and listening to all the fantastic musicians who try their luck there. Munich invites me to surf the river... Munich invites!Beyond the photos, the landscape, the food, the stay and the fun! Munique, Munique, Munique!

Highly Recommended - We thoroughly enjoyed our trip...all three of the stops were quite impressive! Our driver, Tomas, was very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. He spent time showing us some sights that we would not have found on our own. The vehicle was clean and comfortable. We definitely recommend this tour!

Excellent! - I highly recommend the private day trip. Our driver was wonderful. He was so patient and gave us wonderful advice as what to see and recommendations to budget our time to make sure we saw what we wanted to. He has a lot of knowledge and experience which he shared with us. Will definitely tour again next year and ask for him.

Christmas market trip - The castle in Harburg was closed,which was disappointing, but then we arrrived earlier and had more time in the other stops . Christmas market in Dinkelsbuhl didn't open until one so we missed it. The Christmas market in Rothenburg was fun. We didn't see many sights because the weather was cold and rainy. Our driver, Yury, was pleasant and efficient. Nice comfortable, van for our group of 6.

Visits around Munich - The visit to Harburg Castle, Dinkelsbuhle and Rothenburg. The driver was attentive but had little knowledge of the history of these places. In the castle there was a guided visit every hour but only in German. However the castle on its outside was quite interesting. The other two cities were very beautiful with the wonderful Dinkelsbuhle Cathedral.
