★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 931 reviews · 7 hours · from $35Best value

Dresden day trip to Saxon Switzerland: Bastei Bridge and rock views, Königstein Fortress, and an optional side-wheel steamer.

“This tour took us to some amazing scenery. I had no expectations for the Königstein and was overwhelmed by the structure and exhibits. It was really interesting. The tour was only in German so I missed much of what the guide said. Still it seemed he had a lot of information to impart and from the reaction of the German tourists also a good sense of humor. You could hear really loved sharing his knowledge about the area. The bus was terrible. Cold air blew down on us. When we talked to the driver, he said there was nothing he could do.”

Marcin managed to present the heavy topics with the appropriate gravity without glorifying or brushing over anything. We really appreciated his thoroughness and how he was knowledgeable about not just Dachau, but how the events at Dachau connected with other concentration camps throughout Europe.”

9.Full-Day, Half-Day, or Sunset Sailing Experience

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 174 reviews · 30 minutes - 7 hours · from $86

Rostock Baltic Sea sailing with a certified skipper and coach. Learn the ropes, steer the yacht, and choose half-day, full-day, or sunset.

“Skipper Kai ist toll! Als nicht erfahrene Seglerin konnte ich wunderbar von seinen Erläuterungen profitieren. Kai ist superentspannt und kann sehr gut erklären und nimmt sich auch viel Zeit für Nichtsegler. Man fühlt sich extrem sicher bei ihm und er weiß, was er tut. Ich mochte seine Art. Und natürlich, dass er uns immer wieder das Boot hat steuern lassen. Wir hatten einen Traumsegeltag auf einer großen Yacht. Wenn das Charterunternehmen jetzt noch Getränke oder zumindest Mineralwasser für seine Gäste bereit hielte, wäre das eine nette Servicegeste und dem Preis angemessen.”

“Simona and Ales provided an amazing experience. Simona was so kind and patient with the fact that we had a 4 year old with us. He's well traveled but it can always be a challenge during the best of times. We had snow on our to tour which created a beautiful atmosphere at our stops but also a challenge with walking up steep and slippery trails. Simona made sure that we took safe pathways and were still able to experience the beauty of the location. Ales was an excellent driver and we felt safe at all times. We enjoyed the tour and sharing a meal with both of them. I…”
