We had the most wonderful day. Andrea, our guide and Phillip our driver were exceptional and went above and beyond to ensure that our family had a fabulous day. Very enjoyable, we all loved the National Park and the drive there. Would highly recommend this tour.

This was an incredible trip, Andrea and Philip supported our young family with a toddler and baby to get the most even in some deep snow. We saw the most incredible sights, delicious food, and had the best time. I couldnt recommend them more. Our son became their best friend and wanted to only walk with them which they were happy to do. Knowledge of the area and history were expansive and really interesting. We hope to come back again another season and will definitely be going with them. It has been the highlight of our trip, thank you!

Super pünktliche Abholung am Hotel. Basteibrücke und Aussichtspunkte konnten bei strahlendem Sonnenschein (da hatten wir Glück ;-D) vor den Touriströmen besichtigt werden. Essen- und Getränkeauswahl war regional und sehr lecker! Die Tyssaer Wände und das Sandsteinlabyrinth haben wir dann als Winterwunderland mit unserem sympathischen und kompetenten Guide Adam erkundet. Tolle Aussicht und bemerkenswerte Felsformationen! Unser Guide hatte glücklicherweise jedem Spikes für die Schuhe zum Unterschnallen geliehen, da es stellenweise rutschig war. Unbedingt warm anziehen, da es auf den Höhen etwas kälter werden kann. Wurden auf dem Rückweg an unserem Wunschort abgesetzt, weil es danach für uns noch weiterging. Auch im Winter sehr empfehlenswert!

The trip to Saxony was the highlight of our vacation. My husband and I, we were in Dresden for Christmas. The city is beautiful but we needed some nature to complement. We took this tour on Christmas Day and it was the perfect trip. Andrea, our guide, was like a friend taking you to a beautiful place in her hometown. We had such a great time. She did a great job integrating the group so we all ha a lot of fun together…. And the landscapes were just spectacular! I totally recommend this tour.

The booking process was simple and we had great communication with the company leading up to the tour. Our guide, Andrea, and driver Filip picked us up at our hotel right on time.
Excellent winter tour of the Bastei Bridge in Saxon Switzerland and the Tiske Steny hiking area in Bohemian Switzerland. The latter had a light coating of snow, which made it extra beautiful. Delicious lunch at an authentic Czech restaurant.
Andrea was full of great information about the history of the area. She had a great sense of humor and created a nice sense of camaraderie among the people on the tour. I have some mobility issues and she made sure I had crampons (ice spikes) and trekking poles so I could feel safe and enjoy myself.
