Walking tour with Green Vaults

The tour was very well done and we saw a lot. The explanations of the guide were very vivid. The only criticism was that the meeting place was not described in detail. As a recommendation at this point I would mention at the meeting point that it is located in the basement at the Tourist Information. We had only waited in front of the building at the given address and went into the building purely by chance and discovered the meeting point.

Always my pleasure

The tour with Ms. Renger was super informative and never boring. With the small audio device on our ears we had some freedom of movement and could hear her well at all times without moving around like a family of ducks. She is there with her heart and soul. I would book a tour led by her again and again.

Highly recommended

It is definitely worth booking a tour with Ms. Renger. We did the long tour 2 days ago, which lasted 4.5 hours. It was super interesting, very competent on the subject and explained in an understandable way. With an hour at lunchtime to rest, everything was a lot of fun and easy to manage - highly recommended to get a comprehensive insight into Dresden's history.

Perfect city tour in Dresden

We had the city tour with Mrs. Renger in the morning and were so enthusiastic that we booked the Green Vault and Castle tour in the same afternoon. Over four hours and up to the last minute interesting and entertaining. We were professionally told the history of the former Dresden times very competently with many nice stories, so that you could imagine everything great and especially also remember it. For me always a sign of the quality of a tour.We can warmly recommend Mrs. Renger!
