Great Tour Of Dresden by Helga
This was an excellent tour of Dresden by Helga. Helga told us a lot of the history of Dresden and showed us the major points of interest. After completing the tour, we visited some of the museums and learned even more about the history of Germany. The collection of scientific instruments and the transportation museum were very interesting.

Great walk around Dresden
Highly recommend this tour for an overview of Dresden if you want something informative but not too long. It took us 25 minutes to walk to the start from the station but it was easy to follow once we are at the start. The guide lets you know step by step when you are near. I booked this after doing tours previously that were too much talking and not enough walking so this was perfect. For ease and price I’d highly recommend

Great, informative tour with a super nice guide
Since we had never done a Segway tour before, we were a bit nervous at first. Thanks to the good introduction, however, it worked out very quickly and we had a wonderful, informative tour through Dresden. The guide explained everything perfectly with his broad knowledge and was able to answer all our questions. We can highly recommend the tour and would book it again anytime!

This Tour Was Fabulous!
This tour was fabulous! One of the best tours I have taken anywhere. All of the great architectural wonders of Dresden were easily walkable. Wolfgang is a history enthusiast and his excitement to share the great history of Dresden made the tour both fun and fascinating. My friends who were with me had unknowingly booked the same private tour for us the next day, and Wolfgang kindly made arrangements for us to do another tour with him that included a boat trip down the Elba and a tour of the royal palace (both are highly recommended!).There is so much history in the city of Dresden. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about it with an expert who so enjoys what he does!

A detailed overview of Dresden with fascinating historical detail
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable -- what a wealth of detail he was able to share! You get to see all the essential sites, with many stories to make them come alive. For our group of 13 (US college students + guide) the price was great, and the experience was enjoyed by all.
