1.00Would have loved to have done this tour, but the night before, the tour company and Viator sent an email saying differing things: driver was sick (tour operator) tour didn’t have enough people (Viator). Sadly, because email doesn’t always download quickly when traveling internationally, we didn’t receive the emails that were sent around 8:30pm until late morning the next day. We ended up going to the meeting place and when no one showed up, we texted Viator. It was then that we were informed the tour was canceled, and our money would be refunded within 5-7 days. This was our last day in Frankfurt, so were weren’t able to take the tour on another day. What’s interesting is that in the past both tour operators and Viator have called me. I have provided my phone number in my profile, and it’s often how the tour operator and Viator have communicated with me. Why neither decided to call with such important information especially when cancelling less than 24 hours from the event is surprising.
Great experience and

5.00Great visit to Heidelberg and great personal touch by Michael with a small group. Would definitely recommend if you want a more relaxed tour. Plenty of time to explore when you want and plenty of time to grab a bite in old town after the castle visit.
