Additional Information

Dresden commands a captivating city skyline, with a panorama from the north bank of the Elbe showcasing domes, towers, and spires belonging to opulent structures, churches, and palaces. It’s staggering to acknowledge that these edifices endured near total eradication from the 1945 Allied bombings.

Optimally designed for exploration by foot, our self-directed audio tour allows you to dictate the tempo and discover freely, immersing yourself into the narrative of this wondrous city.

To engage with this intriguing city at your own rhythm and convenience, simply download this self-directed audio tour, plug in your headphones, open the provided map upon download, and initiate your journey.

The excursion is designed to span roughly two hours. However, you can pause the audio guide as necessary, perhaps to enjoy a meal or to indulge in some retail therapy.

You’ll encounter notable artworks such as ‘Sistine Madonna’ by Raphael, and Auguste Rodin’s famed sculpture, ‘The Thinker’.

This tour is currently available exclusively in English.

not awful, but wouldn't use again - the tour was okay, it was read with voice-to-text so quite dry, not life changing but some interesting info. the "navigation to the next stage" over audio was a bit of a joke, but that was okay because a map was provided. overall reason for low rating was unusable app - it kept crashing on us, so we ended up downloading the files... which worked fine, but was much less convenient. nothing awful happened, but i would not use this provider in other cities.

Terribly difficult to get selfguide to work. - Bought self-guide tour in English (was American). Would have preferred German (Dresden). Waste of money. Took an awful long time to get the sound file to work. There were 4 of us who had bought the tour, only the two made it work, so never spend money on selfguide again.
