8/16 to Dresden - Robert was just terrific. I can’t say enough. He was funny, knowledgeable, organized, and an all-around superior guy with whom you would like to spend twelve hours on a road trip to Germany. Ten out of ten. Great guy!!!

Fab day trip from Prague with something for everyone ! - The tour itself was great, our tour guide Misu was friendly and very knowledgeable and made the day wonderful! The fact that it was a small group tour and they were only six of us made it really good rather than being a massive coach load of us. It was wonderful to see the beauty of the National Park and being in nature, but then also see the wonderful architecture and city in Dresden. Misu told us lots of information and it was really interesting and informative. The only negative (and I would have left a worse score only I didn’t want that to impact our guide’s score) was that we booked the tour on a certain day that fit in with our holiday plans and we got told we would be picked up at 7:30 in the morning so we got up at 6:30 in the morning.. (which on your holiday it’s quite difficult to get up that early!!) we got showered, dressed and ready to leave for the day.. and at 7:15 just 15 minutes before we were about to get picked up we got a call saying that the tour was cancelled.. this was obviously very upsetting and we doubted the legitimacy of the tour company (especially as the trip isn’t cheap!!), and meant we had got up at 6:30am for no reason! We didn’t think 15 minutes notice to cancel it was very acceptable.. the company should have a contingency plan in case of issues..They eventually rescheduled the trip for the day before we flew home which wasn’t the best timing for us, but as we were really keen to go on the trip, we rearranged our plans to be able to go, so a second 6:30am wake up call on our 5 day trip 🙈. Luckily they did come through and the trip was great.

Bastei/Dresden day trip - Bastei was picturesque and Dresden was charming. Only two hours away from Prague so the journey was very comfortable. Our guide Ondrej was amiable, funny and informative. Would recommend this trip to anyone.
