On this excursion to Dresden and Meissen from Berlin, you’ll discover the essence of the former Kingdom of Saxony, exploring two of Germany’s most beautiful historic cities.

We’ll meet in front of The Panorama “The Wall” near Checkpoint Charlie and head to Dresden, a Baroque gem on the Elbe. A guided tour will reveal highlights such as the Semper Opera House, the Zwinger Palace, the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, the Procession of Princes mosaic, and the magnificent Frauenkirche. Afterwards, enjoy free time to savor Saxon cuisine or explore the city on your own.

In the afternoon we continue to Meissen, birthplace of German porcelain. At the world-famous factory, admission includes the showroom and a presentation of the porcelain-making process. Later, stroll through the medieval alleys and admire the Albrechtsburg Castle and Meissen Cathedral with stunning views over the Elbe Valley.

After some free time, we return to Berlin via Dresden, concluding at our starting point.

    We had a wonderful time on this trip! The meeting place was easy to find, the group was small, the van was nice and the drive was pleasant. Our guide, Matthias, was amazing! SO knowledgeable!! It was the perfect blend of structured tours and information and free time to explore and have lunch on our own. And Dresden is a gorgeous city with an interesting history. Definitely worth the trip!

    We had a wonderful time in Dresden! Our guide was Matthias and he was unbelievably knowledgeable. The meeting place was easy to fine, it was a small group and a nice van. Everything is very organized and well timed, and you are given plenty of time to explore on your own and have lunch, walk around, etc. I thought it was the perfect blend of freedom and structured activity. And Dresden is really a city worth seeing! So beautiful and such an interesting history!
