Best Tour from Prague!

Published on Jan, 2025

Amazing trip with a wonderful guide. Johanna was truly exceptional. She was very knowledgeable, energetic and helpful.

Very enjoyable. Great views . Plenty of touring time in Dresden

Published on Dec, 2024

Well worth the tour! Spectacular views. And the Christmas market much more than in Prague. Sam could not have been more accommodating and outgoing. Highly recommend this option!!

Beautiful Excursion with a Great Guide

Published on Dec, 2024

We took this tour with Sam on a misty overcast day, December 4, 2024. While Sam could not deliver the sun, he was great in leading our small group on the tour of the Bastei Bridge and Dresden. The views from the bridge of the Elbe were misty but beautiful and Sam was always available to take pictures or show us interesting features of the area so that we did not miss a thing. The catapult steps were cool and Sam knew the history of the area so we came away with an appreciation of what used to be there. Our lunch in Pirna was tasty and we got treated to not only good food but Sam's great sense of humor. I appreciate good puns and Sam delivered. LOL Because we were on a schedule, we did not get to explore Pirna's Christmas Market - that would have been fun. The town is very cute. Once in Dresden, Sam took us on a tour of the city around the area where the Christmas Market was located. The area was filled with incredible buildings that had been restored since the bombing and Sam was able to show us quite a bit before we were left to our own devices in the market. Our only regret was that we couldn't stop in the chocolate/candy shop that Sam told us about - because we shopped so much in the market! We were able to find some unique items among the vendors, but not many. Sam's tour leadership style was comfortable and fun. He is well versed in the history and nuances of the places we saw/went. I wished that we had more time as there just wasn't time to linger too much once in Dresden because of the lack of light (can't tour well in the dark and cold) and the need to eventually get back to Prague!

Great day trip

Published on Dec, 2024

A great option for a day trip. Went for the Christmas markets and a light tour of Dresden. Just a quick 2 hour drive from Prague. Sam made our journey comfortable, fun, and chocked full of puns.

Amazing Christmas Tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Our family had such a great time on this tour! Our guide, Sam was such an excellent host and took us at our pace which was much appreciated. Not to mention he was super friendly and funny and our whole group ended up having a blast! Would definitely book a tour with this company again.
