I didnt realise that the tour was for a small group. We had a total of 7 people. We took a minivan and Michael was very accommodating and made us feel comfortable. We were like a family travelling together. Michael shared with us alot of information along the way. He also shared recommendations on places to go to, restaurants to visit and things we can do in Frankfurt. He also brought us to the castle, the Pharmacy Museum, The Hielderberg Tun and shared with us the history behind it. We were give ample time to expore the old town. It was truly a heartwarming experience and Michael made it even more memorable.

Our guide Peter was excellent - very informative and a pleasant gentlemen. The castle tour was amazing and Peter informed us just enough to make it interesting - not overwhelming us with dates and facts. We would have liked to have a little more time downtown in the city, but overall very happy with our choice.

Everything was absolutely perfect, we managed to get on the 100 Minute boat ride an hour earlier, was absolutely wonderful Service. Highly recommended keep up the excellent work and a happy healthy new year to you all.

The castle was amazing! I was a little skeptical as it states ruins but it is magical! The town is great too! Definitely a must see!

Peter was a fantastic guide, and Heidelberg was everything I imagined it would be!
