Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the region. He talked and talked and talked about the history of the region from BC to current day! The town of Heidelberg is so beautiful, but the castle is still being renovated and so had much scaffolding around it and areas that were closed. It was still a wonderful experience and I'm glad I went! We were given the opportunity to go into town on our own for lunch which was great and we had lots of photo ops.

Michael was our guide and he is wonderful! We booked very last minute and as it turned out, only my wife and I were on this tour. Many tours may have cancelled due to not enough people, but we are so happy Michael kept our tour for us! As soon as we were in the van, he asked us how much history we’d like to hear. We love hearing it all so we said we’d love to hear all he can share. All the way to Heidelberg, Michael shared with us his knowledge of the history of this area and Germany as a country. He truly has a passion for what he does and it shows. The castle, grounds, museums etc are all amazing and the views of the city and river below have to be seen, pictures don’t do it justice. We were very lucky to have the sun come out just in time for us! After departing the castle, we had about an hour or so in the downtown area of Heidelberg. We had a snack and a beer and then walked a bit thru the very quaint town. The drive home was spent more getting to know Michael on a personal side (his family, past, etc). We take tours all over the world and I’d put Michael on a list with the best guides we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. Michael, thank you for sharing your love of history with us and giving us more great memories of our travels!

Our tour guide was so kind and informational! We learned a lot and saw beautiful sites. He helped us take great pictures with each other and danced in the rain with us. Highly recommend.

The ride to Heidelberg in the van was great, much better than being in a bus. It was interesting to learn about the history and architecture of Frankfurt and Heidelberg as we drove there. The castle and grounds were great and the apothecary museum was very interesting. I was disappointed that the tour didn’t include admission into the castle itself. Heidelberg’s old town was very charming!
