Perfect tour of Dresden centre

Published on Feb, 2025

This was a perfect tour. It was led by Tom who had extensive knowledge of the history and architecture of this fascinating city centre. We covered all the central landmarks and Tom was a great host who answered all our questions. Recommended without hesitation.

2 hr free walking tour - English Speaking (with Sam)

Published on Oct, 2023

First time using a free walking tour after visiting several European city centres recently and never got round to it. Highly recommend, Sam was brilliant, lots of knowledge, super friendly and great places pointed out/mentioned to revisit for a drink or dinner (we went back to Rathskeller for dinner later that day for dinner and a few beers). Nice pacing, lots of stops & almost completely step free apart from a church or two so largely accessible. Definitely worth if your in Leipzig for a day or three and looking for the core city centre experience.

Great tour! Highly recommend

Amazing tour with Florian! He was very knowledgeable and funny. Felt short because we were never bored. He made me much more interested in the unique history of Leipzig.

A must do!

Superb tour with Matte - informative, relaxed and lots of fun. Really nice to meet other international visitors to Leipzig too. So much to learn about in this beautiful city and Matte was a perfect guide. Totally recommend.
