This tour was amazing! Our guide was not only knowledgable but also very personable. He met us in the pier terminal during a downpour but promised the rain would stop at 9:00..... it did and the sun shone for the remainder of the tour! He was ever mindful of the groups' limitations and kept a constant check on the number. I highly recommend this tour!

Excellent Well Informed Local Guide

We have been on 12 cruises with many tours and Karen the local guide allocated for this tour is the best we have come across. She was well informed, particularly with local knowledge and delivered all information in a pleasant manner laced with humorous stories that kept us all interested.

Exceptional!

Small group that we liked and the pace was perfect with lots of opportunities for rest room breaks, food and shopping. Yvonne, did an exceptional job as she was extremely knowledgeable and answered all the questions and gave a great historical overview of the sites that we saw. Would highly recommend as an alternative for those who are on a one day Baltic cruise excursion and only have a day in Warnemünde as an alternative to a 6 hours round trip excursion to go to Berlin given time commitment. Gave us enough time to spend the rest of the afternoon in Warnemünde to have dinner and relax after the return from Rostock.
