5.00Very informative. The ride out to Heidelberg is a little over an hour. The castle is stunning and it was nice to have some time to explore the city. The guide answered every question thrown at him and was friendly and energetic.

5.00Great tour! There were only 5 of us plus the tour guide who was also our driver. The small group made a big difference. We were able to see Heidelberg Castle and the city in a more intimate style. Our tour guide was very insightful about the history and the story of the city. Though I’ve been to Heidelberg before, this tour made me see the castle and city much more in depth.
A very enjoyable tour!...
