Interesting experience - The guide is competent and friendly, it was a nice ride to learn about the history of the city and some anecdotes. That way we could move better later. Very welcome culinary advice, we enjoyed the restaurant recommended

Holidays in the Black Forest - Freiburg is a great city to visit. We received a warm German welcome. The food is great as is the German beer. This is a beautiful city with lots to see and do for all ages. We loved the Munster, the shopping, the restaurants and bars and the visit to Schlossberg. Highly recommend a walking tour to learn about its fascinating history.
