Gut aber die Info wurde leider nicht strukturiert dargestellt

Der Früher war pünktlich da. Der konnte gut englisch sprechen und war sehr freundlich. Allerdings hat er öfter die Infos nicht gut wiedergegeben. Man bräuchte vielleicht etwa mehr Struktur. Die Fähigkeit,sich an die Gruppe flexibel anpassen zu können,sollte stets verbessert werden. Ansonsten wäre es hilfreich,wenn bei der Buchung angegeben werden sollte welcher Alter die Reisenden haben.

A great, competent tour

Our guide Gerhard Jakob gave us an excellent insight into the history of Dresden and the Saxon royal house as well as the architecture of the city. We can especially recommend it for small private tours - we were only two of us.
