I had a great couple of hours with my tour guide, Silvio. He was helpful and informative and made sure I was taken care of - he even took me to my hotel's entrance to ensure I knew where it was located. My only regret was that the Luther house was closed for renovation, and the first Protestant church was not open, but that was not Silvio's fault. Recommended.
