HERZLICH WILLKOMMEN IN DRESDEN! I am a fully licensed local guide, also allowed to guide in all museums, gardens, national parks and castles as well as some churches in Dresden and Saxony - Frauenkirche church in particular - and an official member of "Tourismusverband Dresden e. V. " and our German national "Bundesverband der Gästeführer in Deutschland e. V. ". As president of "IG Guides Dresden-Elbland" I share my expertise with six very passionate fellow-guides. I also guide in whole East Germany: Colditz, Bautzen, Gorlitz, Wittenberg, Weimar, Naumburg, and e. g. thematic Luther-Bach-Goethe tours. I graduated from university with diploma in History, Anglistics and Germanistics. However, I am well known as a humorous tourist guide from whose rich knowledge of local events in the present and past and lots of historical anecdotes you will be impressed and never bored! You will learn as much about "History" as about "Herstory" and what "Anglo-Saxon" and "Dollar" has to do with Saxony. Curious? Soon you will get the answer! I would be glad to guide you on compact city tours, day trips, 3-day excursions or even as a tour operator - accompanying your tour completely. Dresden, the splendid residential baroque capital of Saxony, is exactly on the axe Berlin-Prague, heart of Central Europe. You can book me as a guide commenting the way between these two cities. Nazi History, Communist Epoch, Peaceful Revolution - thrilling information on the way. Please read my DRESDEN BLOG (www.toursbylocals.com/blog, then choose "THE DRESDEN MIRACLE") to get the flavour of my great city! - University diploma in History, Anglistics, Germanistics - Special guide licenses in most museums, palaces, churches, gardens and national parks. - "Be a Better Guide" training - President of IG Guides Dresden-Elbeland - Member of Germany's national tourist guide association "Bundesverband der Gästeführer in Deutschland e.V." and "Tourismusverband Dresden e.V."

More and more great movies are filmed in beautiful historic Gorlitz/Goerlitz where you discover an intact ensemble from medieval to belle-epoque monuments. I show you the "Grand Hotel Budapest" and the non-destroyed most fascinating art nouveau synagogue, remarkable splendid merchants' "Hall Houses" from 16th cent. as well as famous sights in the historic center as the town hall and splendid St Peter's Church - plus a little walk to Poland on the other side of river Neisse. With inside visits in an historic "hall house" and gothic St Peter's Church with its splendid "Sun Organ". This is peaceful new "Old Europe"! There is a good 1 hour car distance between Dresden and Gorlitz/Goerlitz which I will fill with a lot of interesting information about local traditions, the scenic route through Lusatia and pretty towns on the way. Ralph Fiennes, Tilda Swinton, Jeff Goldblum and Léa Seydoux were here - why not YOU?
