Filip was the consummate professional in tailoring this tour to suit a solo traveller. His flexibility in working around unexpected changes to the timetable, his expert knowledge and his personable, friendly attitude, made this a special experience. Every detail was covered. Filip went above and beyond my expectations ensuring that I had a fantastic day. Cannot thank him enough for an amazing tour to remember.
This is a must!! The views are breathtaking. The city of Dresden is an absolute must see. Our guide was just just great

Very informative. Stephen knew so much about the history, before and after reconstruction. Many places were free to visit but some interiors were with a fee. You will have to plan to extend your trip if you are going inside. Bastei Bridge and surrounding park lands were amazing. Worth the effort but there is effort to get to to the views.
A lot of fun, would do again

Stepan was our tour guide and he did a great job answering all of our questions. Very professional and arrived on time to pick us up. The trip was worth the full day trip, the absolutely amazing views in Bastei, the countryside drive and the visit to Dresden is a must! So many histories. The extra stop in Terezin was great too! Another perk - they do pick up where you are staying. This private tour is highly recommended!

Very well organised day trip. We were picked up from our accommodation in Prague by our guide Filip and we drove to Bastei Park. Throughout the drive Filip gave us a good explanation of the area and continued to do so throughout the entire day. He guided us throughout the park visit. Then we made our way to Dresden where we were given a tour of the city and had some time to explore on our own as well. It was on the whole a very good day trip
Great experience in Dresdon and Swiss National Park.

We had a wonderful on a small toyr grouo wirh Stefan. We were promptly pucked up at our hotel and were driven through the countru side to Dresdon Germany. Stopped and a waonderful nature park with sandstone rock formations, great vistas of the valleys below and a sandstone bridge. Stefan took the time to walk us through the property giving us the best views and also acting as a personnel photographer. Onto Dresdon which was a remarkable example of a city rebuilt after being bombed during WWII. Care was taken to salvage what they could and what was rebuilt emulated what preceded it. Stefan was a great guide, walking us through the city, explaining everything and the tour gave us time on our own for lunch. He suggested places , then brought us there, looked at the menu and gave recommendations. On the way back had some some spare time and instead of cutting the tour a little short brought us to a concentration camp to view the grounds outside. Great tour. Great guide
Amazing private tour

I am so glad we booked this tour. Filip was the best guide. This tour picks you up at your hotel. No looking for the person with the umbrella or flag on a stick. Filip was friendly and tailored the tour to our likes. Bastie Bridge and the park are gorgeous. Dresden was a beautiful city. We had time to take a many pictures as wee wanted and shop for souvenirs. I highly recommend booking this private tour. It was well worth the money.
