It was really good but the guide was expected to be more fluent and knowledgeable.

I was sitting in the van with three great girls... I had mixed feelings when I answered the phone because I had booked the trip on my own... But it was a really great day... at the Bastei, with wonderful weather and stunning views... The boat trip was very short, but it was still nice, and to top it off, the Narnia rocks were amazing... It was definitely worth the trip, and I met some great girls.

This was a great out of doors experience. We went to 3 different sites, all with there each unique scenery and things that made them special. We also had the perfect weather for this hike, temps in the 50's. It does get chilly up at the top, so layer up. Our guide was Andrea and she was outstanding. She is from the area and knows anything and everything about the sites. Be prepared to walk a lot (I got 20K steps) and the second hike is uphill, so wear comfy shoes or hiking shoes. I would definitely do this tour again.
