Henry was delightful!! We had a wonderful evening seeing Heidelberg at night. My group enjoyed the tour with wine, chocolates, and beautiful views. Highly recommend!!

Very flexible to include items of special interest to us. ... read more Guided tour is worthwhile to explain the context of this very complex place- formal gardens - English gardens, structures...More

  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.

  I can’t say enough about this tour!!! We are visiting the area from Virginia and Henry did an outstanding job!! He is well versed about the area and the history... read more of the castle. We not only learned about this historical City we also learned so much about German wines. Highly recommend!!!

  A fabulously crafted tour around the city centre. I personally felt the experience and knowledge about the city was more entertaining. Henry was also friendly enough to share a coffee... read more at his favourite café and what better way to top off a wonderful day.
