Overview

Discover the most magnificent middle age town in Germany on a private Tour (max. 4 participants). You will see all Rothenburg sights, and learn a lot about the area in an easy and entertaining manner. But you will also recieve tons of information about Germany in general, it´s history and culture and get valuable advice for the continuation of your trip.

On your 4 hour tour by feet through old Rotheburg we will stop at all of the famous tourist sights like the St. Jakobus-Church or the Plönlein. But you will also see rather hidden gems like the middle age criminal museum (witch burning section is quite shocking!).

After around 90 minutes we will interrupt the tour for an excellent typical German lunch (not included, vergetarian dishes available).

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).

We had a wonderful time visiting the beautiful city of Rothenburg on der Tauber today, with Maik being our private guide. Maik was very engaging with his vast knowledge of history, and an easy conversationalist. Given the limited time available to sight see at the city, Maik did his checks onsite regarding closing times of the attractions (closing time for one or two was not updated on their websites), and rejigged the sequence of the stops to let us optimize our experience. Although it was slightly rushed, Maik made sure that that we covered all the ‘must-see’ and ‘must-dos’. Highly recommended to do this tour with him!
