Dresden by itself is a rare jewel with an engrossing history and a phoenix-like story. A walking tour is essential to do it justice.

But a walking tour is just the bare minimum, for to visit Dresden without experiencing its cultural aspects is to miss a remarkable opportunity. Allow us to guide you through one of its world class museums: The New Green Vault. First opened to the public in 1729, Augustus the Strong’s collection of treasury art is one of the oldest museums in Europe. It is also one of the most extensive and diverse collections of its kind to have survived Europe’s turbulent history almost intact.

Immerse yourself in an astonishing array of artefacts created by genius goldsmiths, gemcutters and ivory turners to experience in depth Dresden’s glorious past and role as a European powerhouse.

The guide will show you all the highlights and bring their finer and subtle details to light.

This is an absolute 'must do' tour!

  • A bit overpowering, but well worth a visit

    There is a lot to see in the royal palace, perhaps too much. After a while all the armour and weaponry become overpowering. However, the displays give an excellent account of the fortunes of the ducal/electoral/royal house of Saxony. Recommended.

    The way Wolfgang explained all the history of Dresden and be able to feel part of it. It is such a beautiful city. The history is amazing. You cannot miss the castle. It is a remarkable exposition.

    Seema gave our group a wonderful tour of Dresden with attention to both history and the role of people in constructing that history. She showed us all over and was able to answer even the most obscure questions. She also was kind and welcoming. We will be back for another tour!
