On this private tour, you will enjoy all the important tourist attractions in the old town of Heidelberg. Heidelberg with its romantic castle and baroque old town is ranked among the top 5 tourist attractions in Germany. In an easy and sometimes funny manner, you will learn a lot about its history and spectacular sights.
Lunch break (lunch not included) will be in a typical, very cozy German restaurant, offering local specialties as well as international or vegetarian cuisine. There and -if you book it- during the car ride your guide will supply lots of interesting information about Germany in general and give you helpful advice for the continuation of your vacation.
Your guide is fluently bilingual in German and English and upon request can do the tour in what we call "easy English" (designated for guests with English as a foreign language).
PS: If you do not book the hotel pickup from Frankfurt, we will meet you in Heidelberg (train station or any place you wish).
