    We got a flat tire in the middle of the tour, we did not get to see the second town. The Company has not taken responsibility I would like a refund. We lost the whole day and the response was very slow, no backup plan.

  • Wonderful

    The best thing in the trip is the tour guide he is originally from Croatia. He is kind and nice. We enjoyed the trip because of him.

    This tour was an awesome experience. Tour guide was easy to find and the tour left on time! The tour guide was awesome! Loved getting trivia and items of interest during the drive. Loved that it was a small tour (8). The tours of Heidelberg and Rothenburg were awesome. Tour with great info combined with some time to explore on our own. Loved both of these locations. Time management during your free time is important. We had specific things we wanted to do in Rothenburg but that didn’t leave me with enough time to have a Bavarian beer. Maybe I should have let my wife go to the largest Christmas store on her own but that may have been an expensive mistake. Oh well. I got my beer (not Bavarian) at Heidelberg. Great experience!
