Unpacked Tour with Old Town, Castle, old mountain railway & wine
The best tour of Heidelberg
Anne and Mario were the best! Anne did her research on all the sites that we visited. She even provided photos of the evolution of the castle. Husband and wife were very flexible and accomodating too. My husband and I really appreciated the finale - a most delicious complimentary Reisling atop the hills overlooking Heidelberg. Cheers to you, Mario and Anne! We will definitely recommend your tour to our friends. And if you happen yo swing by the Philippines, just drop us a message.

Choose your own adventure!
I had a great time, and Faruk was a fun tour guide. I did the tour during peak season on a weekday and it was just me and Faruk, so groups tend to be quite small (only a few bookings/week). It really is a "choose your own adventure" type of tour. At one extreme, you can choose to ride an e-bike on relatively flat terrain and see some cool sights at a relaxing pace. At the other extreme, you can choose to ride a traditional mountain bike up some very challenging climbs and trail rides and really push yourself physically. Faruk is an experienced mountain biker so he can accommodate any level of skill and let me go at my own pace. I opted for a more physically challenging activity and it was exactly what I was hoping for. We did a ~570m climb through forest and gravel trails to the top of Königstuhl overlooking the city, and took mountain biking trails back down. If you opt for a more extreme route, know that the mountain bikes truly are "vintage" -- they don't have suspension, disk brakes, or space-age materials. That being said, the bikes are well-maintained, so I felt safe the whole time (although some of the downhills were a bit rough!). I wish there were more tours like this!

Great experience
Henry was very knowledgeable and good at keeping everyone involved in the tour. His is a very good tour for those looking to get a good "lay of the land" tour.
