“Sehr viele Informationen bekommen. Für ältere Menschen sind die oft hohen Stufen beschwerlich,wird aber vom Guide vor der Tour darauf hin gewiesen. Wäre wichtig schon vor der Buchung zu wissen. Absolut zu empfehlen”
Join certified guide Reinhard Schwalbe in costume for a two-hour German-language walk from Fischmarkt through Erfurt’s old town. Hear tales of Martin Luther, Faust, Eulenspiegel, and Erfurt’s odd characters, then enjoy Goldhelm chocolate truffles with local herbal liqueur. Optional beer tasting and violin music can be arranged.
“Viele historische Geschichten und Sagen toll verpackt. Eine schöne kurzweilige Tour, die zwei Stunden vergingen wie im Flug.”
