Overview
Dresden, beautifully set at the river Elbe, is one of Germany’s most wonderful cities, with the famous porcelain-like, baroque architecture dominating its silhouette. Fittingly, the capital of Saxony hides a grandiose history of princes and kings, but also its fair share of tragedies.
On our tour, we will present you with the history of the city and its current lively face. We will be sure to make you understand how the Germanic organization merged with Slavic hopeless romanticism to form one of a kind Central European fusion.
Please note that booking this tour you will be joining our general pay as you wish tour (tour in which it is up to the guest how to reward his or her guide). In this case the amount you pay covers the reservation fee and the guide's payment. If you wish to join a smaller, private tour let us know and we will organise it for you!

Amusing and Knowledgeable Tour Leader
Published on Dec, 2024
An exceptional tour led by a PhD recipient who was articulate, fully informed, entertaining, energetic, incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. I particularly appreciated his balanced and nuanced interpretation of Dresden’s history. His droll sense of humor added an amusing collection of fun anecdotes.
Great Intro to a Wonderful City
Published on Dec, 2024
Very informative and interesting. James made the tour very personal and kept us engaged from start to finish! Dresden has an incredible history and we felt like we got a very good overview.
Amazing guide Nicola
Published on Dec, 2024
Our guide, Nicola, was amazing. We were entertained by his descriptions of historical events and people. He held our attention every minute and made us laugh frequently. We particularly liked his description of the Catholic church built in Dresden and the circumstances surrounding the build. He also described the February 1945 bombing so sensitively and accurately that he literally brought me to tears. I wasn’t keen on stopping in Dresden at all but with Nicola as our guide, I would have stayed longer.
