In our tour we will show you the famous castle from Heidelberg. The whole structure, the castle and the courtyard impress with their ruins and construction. The castle is several centuries old and offers a wonderful view over the city from its huge terrace.

After visiting the castle we walk through the medieval center to the old bridge and the Karlstor, the Renaissance house to the knight, the Heiliggeistkirche.

Following Heidelberg, our tour guide in Rothenburg will guide you on foot and we walk together through the picturesque historic streets. Then it's on to the beautiful Burggarten and St. Jacob's Church with the world-famous Holy Blood Altar.

Continue to visit the Crime Museum, the fantastic Doll and Toy Museum and/or the Christmas Museum. We will also show you a very special place for beautiful souvenirs. There are wood carvings, glasses, Christmas decorations, beer mugs and even cuckoo clocks. Together we can still enjoy the famous "snowball" made of sweet shortcrust pastry.

This was a convenient and personalized way to visit two pretty villages near Frankfurt in the same day. Our guide Michael was friendly and told us lots of interesting stories and history. The van was very clean. We were picked up dropped off exactly as the tour instructions described. It felt like VIP treatment to be shuttled in and out of town and dropped off at the front door of the tourist sites. Really glad we took the experience and I would recommend it to others.
Lovely towns, Great guide

Beautiful towns to visit and Michael provided us with so much information on a variety of topics. The vehicles (we traveled in one for Heidelberg and another for Rothenburg) used were very comfortable and we felt safe with Michael at the wheel, even in heavy rain.

A beautiful tour of Heidelberg & Rothenburg! Michael was an amazing tour guide! So knowledgable and personable. He was very attentive to all of the travelers. He gave a gift to each couple as a remembrance of the trip. We loved both cities and. the history/views of each was very different. He gave a great commentary and welcomed questions.
Highly recommended

Michael was extraordinary from start to finish! He is very knowledgeable and a real engaging conversationalist. He guided us through both the castle of Heidelberg and the charming town of Rothenburg. Micahel explained the facades inside the castle with enthusiasm that captivated both us and our children (10 and 7). Don’t hesitate to ask him to take photos of your group, he obviously enjoys both what he does and the historic landmarks of the tour. He suggested an authentic German restaurant in Rothenburg that had a great view of the medieval/fairytale streets. The food (and beer) were great. His vehicle could comfortably hold 7 adults and is clean. The tour lasted 9+ hours and was a fantastic way to explore this area of Germany. Michael is a real gem. He started as our tour guide and ended as part of our family.
