    We really enjoyed our tour with Nils. He was very knowledgeable and started the tour off by asking what we were specifically interested in learning about and seeing. He had a great knowledge of history. I highly recommend this tour!

    First, I want to say our guide, Henry, was great. My main complaint was the difference between the Viator description of the tour on the first page and then when you select booking, you get three options. The first is for a 1 hour tour (for about 42 euros) , then an option for a 2.5 hr tour (82 euro) with time for a meal and a 3rd option that’s even more expensive. But if you read the description of the “Hberg old town walking tour”, the itinerary shows it takes about 2 hours to complete (and includes the castle). I liked where our guide took us and what he talked about, but I think that Viator needs to make the description more accurate and state upfront that the listed price is for a one hour tour.

    Bela was a wonderful tour guide. She directed our family of 7 to key points in the Old Town and provided the history about each place. My granddaughter is a college student and was particularly interested in the Univ. of Heidelberg Student Jail. Bela also recommended restaurants and shops. We shared a large entree at Vetter's that included sausages, schnitzel and roast pork with potatoes.
