The tour with Mrs. Renger was first class. She brought the history of the castle, its inhabitants and the exhibits so alive and interesting that everything was very entertaining.
The tour was excellent in depicting history with anecdotes that stick in the memory.TOP! All the objects on display must be placed in a historical context, otherwise you only understand "the surface"!
The tour of The New Green Vault and Residence Castle was fantastic - highly interesting, fascinating, peppered with incredible expertise. The almost 3 hours were around so fast, and we would have liked to see and hear so much more..... we will soon be guests of the Renger agency again!
The tour through the castle was uniquely beautiful. After booking online, everything went smoothly. Mrs. Renger explained the wonderful highlights in the castle with a lot of dedication. A big thank you to the dear colleague. She's there with her body and soul. By the way, she told us some funny anecdotes about August the Strong. The restoration of the important castle over the many years is quite admirable. Very impressed we left the castle and hope that many more visitors can experience this.
we were more than enthusiastic about the castle tour , especially with the professionally very competent fuherrin frau renger. fr. renger masters both the knowledge of all exhibits and the associated history to these. their manner of explanations was very refreshing.
humorous and very competent. An absolute must. Ms. Renger has presented some particularly interesting, beautiful and extraordinary exhibits from the more than 1000 exhibits of the new Green Vault, mostly peppered with funny anecdotes. The further tour of the castle was also an experience. Ms Renger convinced with her incredibly wide-ranging knowledge and attention to detail. We will definitely come back and book the missing building block of the guest tours.
The tour was unique! Mrs Renger not only convinces with the highest level of expertise but also ensures a high entertainment value through the nature of your explanations. Time flew by and the memories of this beautiful, entertaining and above all educational afternoon will resonate for a long time to come. It's wonderful that something like this still exists. Thank you, Mrs. Renger, you have provided a highlight in the series of visits to Dresden museums and cultural institutions- Peter Vetters
The tour with Dagmar was very informative and interesting. She took us on a journey through time that was deeply fascinating. Dagmar has incredibly detailed background knowledge. The tour far exceeded our expectations.
A thoroughly fantastic tour, which is particularly characterised by Dagmar Renger's inspiring narrative style. It goes far beyond a "normal" tour. And thanks to the headphones, you can stand a little further away without missing the important things.
We had an excellent tour. The profound knowledge of our guide, Ms. Becht, combined with exciting explanations of our many questions was exciting and enriching. She brought the time of August the Strong to life in a wonderful way! We are looking forward to our next visit to Dresden
