I have been working as a tour guide here in Dresden for more than 20 years now. I really enjoy showing my guests the beautiful city of Dresden, its museums and surroundings. For me this means not only to tell you about history, but also about culture, traditions, and the local life here (yesterday and today). I grew up not far from Dresden and now for more than 30 years I have lived here in Dresden and experienced its many changes - especially those the reunification brought about. Every day you can see more of the splendour and treasures of this amazing city. And it will be a pleasure for me to show them to you! What makes Dresden even more fantastic is its breathtaking surrounding. Picturesque old towns like Meissen and impressive rock formations - the Saxon Switzerland - you can also discover with me. I studied English at the Dresden Technical University and spent one year in Great Britain. I am a licensed guide in Dresden and in most of its museums.

Overview of your Dresden tour
Let me introduce you to the diversity of Dresden. I give you my personally selected impressions of the past and the vibrant life of present-day Dresden. With me you will discover the variety of the different districts of Dresden. I have chosen some of the unique places of Dresden for you to see, so you discover villa, baroque and alternative districts. For this we will take a car/taxi. Walking in the old town with the magnificent historical buildings I will show you my fine selection of the "must see" of Dresden. You will understand why Dresden was known as one of the most splended courts of Europe in the barouque time and see how this splendor is back again. Finally we will enter the reconstructed Royal Palace which houses now some of our greatest art collections. With me you will experience the world of the splendid Saxon court of Augustus the Strong in The new Hall of the giants (armoury), the State Apartments and the Treasury - The New Green Vault.
Your Dresden tour itinerary
It is a combination of a city tour by car for the overview, a leisurely walking tour in the historical city centre and a guided tour in the Royal Palace to see some of our impressive art collections. The tour by car will drive through: villa district Blasewitz, the baroque New Town and the alternative Outer New Town pass by: the Great Garden, the transparent Manufactory by VW, The Blue Wonder Bridge and the Golden Horseman. short photo stop at: the Elbe Palaces During the walking tour in the historical Old town we pass: the Zwinger, Theatre Square with the Opera House, Procession of Princes, Church of Our Lady and Cathedral.
