Excellent overview - This city tour (with a very nice tour guide) should be an absolute must for every visitor to this delightful city. Not only are you pointed out to many of the landmarks, but you also get a lot of information that is not found in the printed guidebook. You are also pointed out a lot of things that you can visit on your own later. Highly recommended!

A visit not to be missed. - As part of our Viking River Cruise we visited Rothenburg, a medieval walled city in Bavaria. It is one of the most scenic places on the planet- from its wall, gates, guard houses, businesses, churches, etc. It was a "bucket list " place to visit for me and I loved the entire experience. There are many great bakeries and restaurants where you can obtain authentic German foods.

Quaint village, worth visiting - Very informative & knowledgeable guide, covered a variety of history of Rothenburg. She showed us lots of other options we could take that might be of interest, which most we did end up doing.

Everything we were looking for in Rothenburg! - This was a fantastic experience through and through. From the historical background that was provided to the spots we visited, it was all perfect. Unfortunately, I forgot the name of our guide but he was amazing and went above and beyond to ensure that our needs were met including recommendations for restaurants, best ice cream and other spots to visit that were not on our tour. Would highly recommend this to anyone interested in a tour during their time in Rothenburg.
