  • 5A great trip to Baden Baden and the Black Forest!

    Our trip to Baden Baden and the Black Forest was excellent! Our guide - Jerome was extremely knowledgable so it was a great learning experience! We had plenty of time to wander ourselves to see the various places we visited and this was balanced really well with information from Jerome. A lovely day and well worth the price!

  • 5Perfect Day Trip!

    We had one day in Germany and this was the perfect trip. Our guide Thierry was wonderful. He was very knowledgeable about the area and shared a lot of history and cultural norms that we wouldn’t have known otherwise. 10/10 recommend him for a tour guide. Make sure you wear comfortable clothes and good shoes for walking/hiking a little through the Black Forest. It’s a must see. Baden Baden is a quaint town with shopping and cafes. Do not go on a Sunday the shops are closed.
