Gives good insight into the markets but you do not get time to buy things except one spot where there is time to get a gluhwein but that was expected. We had Michelle as guide and she sometimes walk a little fast and for those at the back we did not always manage to catch her until she had already started to talk about things. But overall was a good experience and would recommend.

It was a very nice tour despite the very cold weather. More than visiting the Christmas markets and some churches, the guide told us lot of things about the traditions and the customs in connection with this type of markets and also interesting historical events.
