Maik gave us the option to tour Rothenburg instead of the Black Forest, due to the days of rain from the hurricane. We chose Rothenburg. It was exceptional. He planned for the rain and had umbrellas etc. for us. Many wonderful shops and beautiful historic buildings to learn about. It was a perfect day, thanks to Maik! He went above and beyond! He also helped us with a few other details with our week trip to make it as memorable as the tour was. He had wonderful stories and history to share. When time for lunch, he planned a great place with the best schnitzel ever!! Thanks for the beautiful memories! Our best to you always!

Maik, gave us the option to visit Rothenburg instead of the Black Forest tour due to all the rain from the hurricane. We chose Rothenburg due to the days of rain they had. It was exceptional!! He planned for the rain and had umbrellas etc for us. There were many wonderful shops and beautiful historic buildings to visit and learn about. It was a perfect day thanks to Maik. He knew all the best places to see!! He went above and beyond!! He also helped us with a few other details of our stay in Germany to make the trip perfect! He had wonderful stories and history to tell us about. When it was time for lunch he had a place in mind for us that was the best schnitzel we had ever had!! Thank you Maik, for all the beautiful memories! Our best to you!

This tour is a packed day traveling - too much in one day given the distance from Frankfurt and the amount of areas included in our opinion. Nearly a 12-hour tour. We had to abbreviate the tour of the open air museum to keep on schedule. Our tour of the brewery and the sampling was cut short to keep on schedule. The initial overlook after the brewery could have been skipped once we were behind schedule. This also impacted the visit to the lake as the restaurant was closed. Another suggestion, consider taking the autobahn down as well as back in order the maintain the packed schedule.

Mike was a fabulous guide for a day in the Black Forest giving us lots of information about the area and Germany in general. He made sure we had the full Autobahn experience since it was our first time in Germany. Mike also gave us some tips that served us well during our remaining time in Germany. I highly recommend this tour!

Maik organised an interesting and diverse tour with different activities, including a visit to the open air Museum Vogtsbauernhof to look at how farmers in the region lived, a visit to a cuckoo clock place and to Mummelsee, and some short walks through the beautiful Black Forest. We drove through a number of very picturesque vllages. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day.

We had a great time on our tour with Maik. We would highly recommend this tour if you wanted to see as much as possible in one day. But be aware that ‘this is a very packed trip and we didn’t do the beer tour. I like to souvenir shop locally made items and this trip did not really allow enough time for that. Saying that I would suggest if you wanted to have time for that to mention it to Maik and I’m sure he would come up with some suggestions. Thank you Maik with your knowledge of Germany and the Black Forest.

Had a very great experience with Maik. He was always very responsive and patient in helping with my enquiry via whatsapp/ email, which I appreciate it a lot. Our trip went very smooth, we were able to see everything we wanted to see, and we were very happy that we got the chance to try the real black forest cake! Maik had very good driving skill and he spoke very good English too! Would definitely recommend this tour and Maik to everyone, thanks again!

Long day with lots of stops packed in but we had a blast! Our guide was awesome and full of knowledge and we learned a ton about Germany and German culture. Would highly recommend as we never would have found any of the places on this tour on our own.
