Rothenburg Private Tour - We travelled as a family of 5 in December to see the Christmas markets in Rothenburg and learn the history of the town. Kevin was an outstanding guide! He was very knowledgable and friendly. We really enjoyed our time in Rothenburg. The day was a good mix that included a walking history tour, an excellent lunch recommendation and free-time to explore the town on our own. Would highly recommend Kevin's tours to anyone!

Outstanding Tour - The city & Guide - This tour was certainly a highlight of our trip. Visiting Rothenburg is truly a special location - understanding the age and history is a plus to seeing the unique architecture. Kevin our tour guide made it even better. He picked us up on time…..with him being a Native American - created no language issues - he was extremely insightful throughout the ride but throughout the city tour and always pointed out unique and interesting facts or sights —the fact is was a personal tour made it so much better than a large group as it allowed him to be more personable and interactive and always allowing and answering questions. He was always accommodating to our requests. He clearly does this a lot but does it well - it never felt robotic or programmed - but yet still was a great and informative tour. If you want a great tour guide that speaks English and really knows what he is doing and talking about Kevin is the one. And if you want to see a really unique and very different city with a long history and in the beautiful Tauber valley - you must go to Rothenburg!

Exploring Rothenberg - This was the second tour we booked with Kevin. He gave a great overview of the town and it's history as we walked around town. Had great suggestions for lunch and shopping. Overall, a fantastic experience.

Rothenburg + Nuremberg Private Tour - Kevin was great! Our private tour of Rothenburg and Nuremberg was a history lesson, along with one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever eaten. If Kevin recommends a place to eat, go! you will not regret. Kevin provided real personal service, attention to details, including transportation that fit our custom request. We were very satisfied with our decision going with Kevin. TIP: be sure to wear really good walking shoes, its an aerobic workout!

Rothenburg/Nuremberg/Bamberg tours - We booked Kevin for 2 days and did 3 tours with him. It was very easy to communicate with him and he picked us up from our hotel. It was a great experience and would recommend/do again. Kevin was extremely knowledgeable and provided a fun tour and fabulous restaurants for lunch!

Wonderful tour guide of a town too beautilful for words - Kevin was an excellent tour guide! My mom, daughter, and I did a Rothenburg tour with him and he gave an excellent overview of the history of the town as well as hit all the highlights. His historical knowledge is excellent and we learned a lot from him. And Rothenburg itself was so lovely I just can't do it justice with words. We did a couple of other tours in Germany and his, by far, was the best. The nice thing about the private tour was being able to pace it to fit our small group. I plan to go back to Germany some day and I hope to book another tour with Kevin.

Rothenburg was informative and fun. - We were looking for an informative, one day, private driving tour to Rothensburg. Kevin is an American that has lived locally for a long time. He was very knowledgeable and knew exactly where to take us so we would see the best highlights of Rothensburg. We saw a 400 year old untouched home and walked the perimeter of the walls, saw the main square and experienced the Glockenspiel. We ate lunch at a nice restaurant and did some shopping. Kevin never rushed us. He is efficient and friendly. Highly recommend his tour!
