Best city tour ever! - My wife and I loved the grand city tour. We particularly enjoyed the explanations from our guide Sabrina throughout the tour. Her explanations were a wonderful mix of knowledge and entertainment. It was just perfect. Thank you Sabrina!

We recommend - Such tours stand or fall primarily on what the guides can do. We have experienced two of them because we chose our own stops and can only praise both of them. Easy to understand, entertaining and interesting - exactly how I want it. All the important sights are visited and commented on with personal recommendations. Great. Thank you for the wonderful experience with you!

Great for sights outside the town centre - This bus gave the opportunity to see all the sights outside of the town centre but it was only in German so we had to share one booklet between four meaning the one reading the booklet did not see the sights. Still as it was hop on and off we just went round again later!

Disappointing - Sold and English tour but only got a German one. The route and views were great but understanding the description would have made the tour great.

No English! - We were extremely disappointed in this experience. The promotion clearly stated that the tour was available in English. However when we checked in, we learned that there is, in fact NO English tour. (Since Covid) So, we tried to follow along, tried Google translate, neither of which were very successful. We had really looked forward to learning more about Leipzig’s role in eliminating the iron curtain….but know little more than when we started. Our time was limited….so couldn’t explore other learning options.
