Mainz is famous for its University, its Roman and Jewish heritage, its status as a media hub and regional capital, and its four most defining features: the Romanesque cathedral, the Gutenberg printing press, Marc Chagall and the Rhineland carnival. The people of Mainz have a good reason to be proud of their city's history spanning almost 2, 000 years. This rich cultural heritage incorporates a well-established wine growing tradition, which only adds to Mainz's unique appeal. And not to forget the wonderful x-mas market during the winter season. Why not enjoy Mainz from some totally different perspectives. Immerse yourself in the art, culture and history of the city and let yourself be enchanted by the beauty of by-gone eras. follow the footsteps of well-known figures and will fascinate you with unusual views of the city. I will organise your own unforgettable personal walking tour of the city.
Barbara Rubert is an exceptional tour guide. She is most knowledgeable, shows a deep connection to her community and a passion and desire for sharing her knowledge with us, while still being very aware of our special interests. She not only hears our requests but remembers to follow up with them and goes out of her way to show us the things she knows will be of interest to us. I look forward to continuing contact with her in the future.
We just had an excellent experience in Mainz, thanks to our guide Barbara. We found Barbara to be very knowledgeable about the city, history, culture and life there., including the local cuisine. We very able to visit the Friday market, and Barbara pointed out the highlights of the market, including the fresh white asparagus. She explained the history of the monastery and showed us the Chagall windows. Her English was excellent. She went above the requirements and helped us with several tasks.
Barbara is a fountain of information and entertainment. Her knowledge of Mainz was just what we were looking for.
