Potsdam

Published on Sep, 2024

Nice group, Bindi (SP?) did a good job shepherding us around Potsdam and the sites.... One suggestion: Have some specific recommendations for lunch spots when you break, could save some wantering around...thanks!

Worthwhile bike tour.

Published on Sep, 2024

Background knowledge was great. The group interaction was good on the tour which made the tour that much more enjoyable. Helmets were not offered in Potsdam like they were in Berlin.

Great bike tour! Love to learn about our LGBTQ+ past!

Published on Sep, 2024

Simon was a fantastic guide who provided a lot of history with a relaxed vibe. We didn’t know anything about Frederick the Great and were happily surprised to learn some LGBTQ+ history via this tour! We only had one other couple on the tour, who were also awesome (hi Jackie and Stuart!), and we appreciated that it wasn’t cancelled for such a small group. It is a long day with a lot of biking, so just be prepared, however you do get a lunch break in the middle which was nice to relax and wander Potsdam alone.

Great tour

Published on Aug, 2024

Great tour thoroughly recommended. Lots more to see than I thought available. Tour guide Nick was very knowledgeable.

Wonderful day in the palaces of Potsdam

Published on Jun, 2024

This was a wonderful day taking the train to Potsdam from Berlin. Knowledgeable guide and a wonderful route surround the many palaces of Fredrick the great and other kings of the erra. The grounds are beautiful and a lot of history surrounding Potsdam and visiting where the allies divided us Germany following World War II is incredible. Highly recommend this tour, and Nick, our guide, was wonderful. :)
