A wonderful day at Potsdam - What an amazing day. The drive to Potsdam showed us many of the wealthy homes with stunning gardens just outside Berlin. Next across the bridge used in the film “Bridge of Spies” on to Wannsee - a beautiful town on the lake where the wealthy holiday. Finally our trip concludes with a visit to the magnificent castle at Sanssouci palace. Our guide Susan was fantastic. Most informative & entertaining. All in all - a great day. Would highly recommend this tour

Short tour to Potsdam - The tour was short and informative. Took us into center of old town and palace but could have spent more time in the old city to feel the atmosphere of Potsdam

Beautiful palace, but I recommend taking the train and just going yourself. - I did like that this was just a half-day short trip. The bus was very big and had plenty of space. Our guide was very nice but she did talk a lot. I don’t think she stopped talking one time on the 45 min to 1 hr bus ride to and from postdam. It was kind of like information overload. However, she was very knowledgeable. It was just a little overwhelming. When you get to the palace, you go inside and get headsets for an audio tour. It is not a guided tour with the guide. It is beautiful, and the tour is about 30 minutes. But I didn’t like how busy it was. You’re just herded through like cattle in a line of people. And people are obnoxious and get in your way and stand around. Would’ve been nice if there were less people in there. It just wasn’t really the experience I was looking for. I would prefer small group guided tour. Maybe every 10 mins or so. Also, it’s hard to hear your audio tour when people are standing around talking to each other constantly. But it’s kind of what you get when you are with a large group of tourists. I noticed this a lot in Germany. Not a lot of consideration for the other guests. You then walk around the grounds for a bit with your guide from the bus. There is a steep incline. Keep that in mind. And you don’t really get to see the town of Postdam on a tour walking around. You just drive through and she talks as you drive-through. So don’t expect to explore the town on this tour.

Honestly not worth it.... - Honestly not worth it. Was very unimpressed with the palace both in style and size. Would’ve wanted to go into actual town of Potsdam.

Schloss Sanssouci - An effective tour with a lot to see if you are interested in architecture and history. The only negative thing for us was that the guide spoke two languages - German and English and sometimes mixed the two. She also talked ALL the time which was a bit annoying so we skipped being part of the group as soon as we could to give ourselves some space from all her words. A pause now and then would have been great! So our tip is to choose a guided tour with a guide in ONE language. Much better!!!

Rushed trip - The trip was too short; I always felt rushed. It would have been nice to have at least 1 hour of free time in Potsdam. The trip was sold as a day trip, but altogether it was only 4 hours. The good part was that our tour guide was very knowledgeable.
