A wonderful day-trip from Prague - The trip was fantastic. The natural beauty of the Bohemian Switzerland National Park was incredible, and the views of the river Elbe and villages below were better than any postcard. Our guide, Vladimir, was relaxed, informative, and considerate of each person in our small group. From there, we had a delicious lunch at the picturesque village of Pirna, and then on to Dresden so see the old surviving structures, the post WWII reconstruction, and experience the love of music and history as the played out together along our walk. Go and enjoy! This trip was well worth it! Thank you! Rosalie and Don.

Exceptional Tour - These tours usually start with expectations of what you will see. We were asked to delay our tour by a day to accommodate a large enough group to do the tour. Communication during this process was exceptional. This tour started with a very engaging and enthusiastic tour guide, Robert. This was infectious with the entire group and really made for a personalized experience. The commentary along the way was informative and interesting. Our first stop was Bastei Bridge. This park is beautiful and the sights very picturesque. The next stop was for lunch in a very cool little town. The restaurant we were scheduled to have lunch at had a sudden issue and alternate plans were made with the group and we had a wonderful meal. The third stop was Dresden. A history lesson of past events and glory days of the city were enlightening. Dresden has historic buildings and sights. I can not commend the tour company or our guide enough. Communication and service was great. Our guide made the entire experience one to fondly remember.

To Dresden and Back - Robert was the ultimate tour guide. He knew so much information about CR and Germany. Our tour guide took complete care of us and always made sure we were ok. Honestly you see so much on this trip in one day its very much worth the money. You see the bridge at the Swiz-Bohemians Park, make a stop and Pirna, and of course Dresden. So much info was given. Very much worth the value.

Fantastic journey in Saxony - Alex our guide was pleasant and engaging of all of the group. We never felt rushed, plenty of time to spend at each stop. The lunch stop was a wonderful restaurant, food was delicious. Highly recommend this tour, and request Alex as your guide although I’m sure the entire guide service is good. Be prepared to do a lot of walking in fresh air,

Nature and beauty - The overall evaluation of the tour is good as Bastei Bridge area is a unique place to visit and Dresden city is a beautiful place. But it would be better to focus on the city and increase the time available on the tour in Dresden at least to visit the Galeria. The guide was nice except he was noisy and lacked the informations needed for his tour about the places and spots, also he used to talk to his colleague loudly during the in the bus for a long time. The lunch was great. And I’d like to thank Petra that helped me to catch the tour and didn’t cancel it. Occasionally the tour was delayed due to some technical issues but thanks to Petra who solved the problem. The cost of the tour is a bit high but it was good.
