A wonderful tour - We started on the 1st. Christmas Day! this tour made. It was extremely interesting, entertaining, and most importantly alive. Because it didn't roll off the production line, but our guide Mirko with his extensive knowledge told it wonderfully. Thanks also to Waldemar, the bus driver.

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.

Potsdam tour in November - Well organized tour in German with some English. I wish more could have been in English but looks like November is a off season time

Very interesting visit - Very interesting tour. I didn't score 5 because I didn't like the fact that there was a guide speaking German on the bus, because the sound overlaped the audio in the other languages. It is important to know that in other languages there is no guide. Aenas a few notebooks that synthesize what the guide goes saying in German.

not pretty - We booked this ride in spite of "naughty" pick-up in the station to experience Potsdam's sights. Unfortunately, this tour was not recommended at all! Inside the bus, it smelled strong, making my wife nauseous. When exhaust gases started pouring into the stuffy bus, it was all over. The buses are old (min. 30 years) and how the TÜV got, that goes without saying ! Unfortunately, the tour was a complete disappointment, especially as the price for this service is too expensive. The next day we took a boat trip, this is recommended. And besides Sanssouci, the castles were wonderful to see! Without exhaust gases
