  I purchased our tour based on the reviews I read here. Henry was having an off day, he was late, told us little history of market square where the... read more tour started. We walked to the funicular, with very little 'walking tour history' of Heidelberg. When we arrived we were unaware of the extra cost of €8 each to ride up to the castle. During this whole time there has not been an ongoing talk about the history of the city. We were consistently only asked, "Do you have any questions?" For a $108 each We expected a tour guide to provide a consistent narrative of Heidelberg history, especially since he lives there.
He was thoughtful and bought me a chocolate bar for my birthday at the castle wine tasting. 🙂
It was unfortunate that he couldn't remember my name and kept calling by the other persons name in our party of two.
I would not reccomend paying for this tour. In his words "the Free walking tours are good, during Corona." you just tip €10 after them.
That would have been good to know before hand!!! Also, we didn't go to the Old Bridge as stated in the guide. He just said he had to go pick up his daughter. Peace to you Henry.

  Very interesting tour! Henry is very accommodating with all our requests. He was able to show us the quaint town of Heidelberg and Ladenburg. I love the overlooking view of... read more the river at the end of the tour. Hopefully one day I can visit those places personally!

  I was given this tour as a birthday present from my children and Henry was our guide. It was easy to contact him for arrangements and he was very helpful... read more all along. The tour includes a nice ascent to a nearby hill of the city of Heidelberg, where you get stunning views of the river, the old town and the castle. There are interesting historical spots that Henry described to us in detail, making it also a cultural visit. Nature and vegetation, trails and trees, were a given and certainly a pleasure to enjoy. A great present, excellent guide and highly recommendable experience!
