Dresden & Bastei Bridge Day Trip to Germany from Prague

· The Perfect Tour: History, Humor, and Helpful Tips

The journey is fantastic, with absolutely stunning views. Our tour guide, Stepan was a funny and engaging guy with great historical knowledge—he kept the tour interesting throughout. He also shared plenty of helpful local travel tips with us, which was a nice bonus.

Guided tour of the New Green Vault and the Semper Opera House

Als Guide hatten wir im Grünen Gewölbe Frau Dagmar Renger. Diese Frau ist der Hammer. Mit welcher Begeisterung und welchem Fachwissen sie die Exponate vorstellt und erklärt ist der absolute Wahnsinn! 11 von 10 Punkte. Unschön war, dass sich fremde Personen einfach unserer Gruppe anschlossen, ohne dafür bezahlt zu haben. Darauf müsste definitiv besser geachtet werden und diese Personen müssten auch rigoros weggeschickt werden. Von der Führung in der Semper Oper hatten wir uns mehr erwartet.
