Great, friendly female tour guide. We were a group of english speaking friends, so we were given audio guides, because the activity was held in german language, but we didn’t feel left out. The excursion lasted a bit more than an hour. Warm clothing is not a joke, really, dress properly so you wouldn’t freeze. Overall, it’s a nice activity, if you are visiting Nuremberg for the first time.

It was snowing and on the train you can’t really tell that much it was ventilated good. It was nice. I say come a little earlier because parking took forever because it was full and we had to wait till someone left. We were late due to that and missed our slot but they were kind enough to let us on the next train that was shorter time though

This activity was well worth doing , the main tour guide spoke German but I being English was given a handset in English and a second tour guide joined the tour and explained all points of he tour to me . This tour is a must as gives a great insight into the history of nuremburg.

Really interesting tour very a very knowledgeable guide. Worthwhile for anyone interesting in history and art.

Very nice ride in Nuremberg over about 30 minutes. Also interesting for the children.
