Three interesting hours - The tour lasts three hours. We're a little scared because we only expected 2 hours. It was informative and entertaining and time flew by.

Potsdam on 08.10.24 - I can only recommend this tour. The tour starts at the main railway station and goes through the whole city including the castles. But you don't sit on the bus all the time. The tour also includes 3 walks with the guide. This in turn shines with information around Potsdam. The 25€ was worth it.👍

Super tour of Potsdam - Today we made a beautiful tour through Potsdam with bus driver Waldemar and city guide Winfried. We have learned so much about Potsdam, castles, squares, parks and kings. The tour was very interesting and humorous. Highly recommended!

it was an experience - Waldemar chauffeured us friendly and safe through Potsdam. Winfried was amusing and competent in conveying the history of the garrison city of Potsdam.
It was a treat.

City tour to smile - If you want to take an interesting and amusing city tour then the tip: Book Winfried as a guide and Waldemar as a bus driver. Thanks to the two of them for this great tour.

Fun, educational, wonderful - Actually, I wanted to do the tour of the other provider, but coincidentally I wanted to mention this exactly 10 minutes before the departure of the Fritz tour at the hotel reception. Because the tour started almost on the doorstep, so I didn't have to walk into the city, I decided spontaneously to change my mind. The fact that I was able to use this tour at the same time as a shuttle to the station was great.
Winfried was our guide and with him and his stories and explanations time flew like nothing. We got a good overview of the castles and their builders, enjoyed history lessons and during the exits there was also a little movement on top. Winfried seems to know the chronicles of the city by heart, telling stories without teacher attitude and really taking care of every guest, even the non-German speakers.
A wonderful tour and my spontaneous change of plans proved absolutely right - I really couldn't have beaten the time until my train ride "dead".
I will definitely do it again on my next visit and hope for a Potsdam with fewer construction sites ;)

Best city tour in Potsdam. - It was a unique beautiful experience to explore a city tour through Potsdam on an electric bus. The weather was great and Winfried our top narrator was in a good mood. His enormous knowledge was impressive. His jokes always came at the right time.

Great tour - Great tour
We (my sister and I) had a great driver. (Manuel ) He drove our small group with charm through the streets, rumble streets and diversions.
Thank you Manuel
Our guide Mario conveyed the knowledge and his passion for Potsdam history to us in a humorous and serious way at the castles and the castle gardens.
Also learn a few more stories about the GDR and the secret quarter, etc.
Many thanks to Mario ( Urpotsdamer)
Give me this ride. It is informative and worth seeing.
Thanks for the great tour.

A lot of information - Our YOUNG guide Winfried😉 has told us a lot. A lot of background knowledge that we would never have experienced otherwise. Really great and recommended for adults. Only four stars because we participated in the tour with child and this tour is clearly not for children.
