Awesome Tour - Must Try! - This was such an excellent experience! Micheal was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable, friendly and organized. The views of the castle and city were stunning. Micheal did such a nice job highlighting key points and places and made the experience seamless. Highly recommend this tour with Micheal! We also were very fortunate to have great company along with us on the tour (tour group photo attached). The small group size made for such a rich/intimate experience!

Great experience! - My husband and I took the Heidelberg Castle and city tour with Michael as our guide, and it was an amazing experience. The castle was my favorite part of the tour, and Michael’s incredible knowledge made it even more special. He knows every inch of the castle’s history, sharing details that other guides might not have known. Those little insights were fascinating, and I feel so lucky to have learned them. Also, we loved the downtime in the town. Many times on tours, you don’t get enough of that, but this one was perfectly balanced. We visited coffee shops, explored stores, and tried so many desserts in town on our own! 10/10 rating. Hands down, Michael was absolutely great. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and are so grateful to him for making the end of our trip so memorable. Grazie, Michael!
