>> Guided tours with heart and brain << Hello and moin, as we say here in Northern Germany. My name is Antje and I would be more than happy to show you my lovely homeland Mecklenburg-West-Pomerania! I have been working as a tour guide for more than 10 years now and I do it with passion. What I like most is: - to tell stories that you will remember - to incorporate personal insights and stories into my tours - to show you things that you normally just would pass by - to give you "light bulb moments" - to set local history into a larger frame to show how things are related with each other - to get in good contact with my guests and have interesting conversations - to learn from each other - to have a nice day with you. :-) I am interested in history, culture and nature. Therefore I read books in these fields and enlarge my knowledge, so that I can share it with you. I have been traveling a lot, I also worked on a cruise liner, but whenever I come back home to Mecklenburg-West-Pomerania I feel that this is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been. And I would like to share this love with you! What my guests told me after they were on a tour with me: "Thanks for sharing your personal story with us. It meant a lot. ", "You are an excellent guide. ", "We have learnt a lot today. ", "You have a lovely voice. " Corona-Update: I am fully vaccinated. I have been working as a guide for more than 10 years. I am a licensed church guide. I am not a driver-guide. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

We will visit the Minster of Doberan, a cistercian church from the 13th century with the oldest winged altar in art history. Once it belonged to a cloister and is now a pearl of brick architecture. We will visit it from inside and outside. I will tell you how long it took in medieval times to produce bricks and how many you needed to build such a church. We drive further through a lovely landscape to Kühlungsborn, a popular seaside resort at the Baltic coast. Here we will see an old watch tower from GDR-times. I will give you an insight about life in GDR and why and how people tried to escape the country. Our last stop will be Rostock, a more than 800 years old Hanseatic town with beautiful gabled houses and old university and brick churches. Learn about an arrow-stork and if all windows at the town hall are real windows. We will visit St. Mary's church which is known for its astronomical clock from 1472. With the calendar of that clock you can even calculate on which weekday someone is born.
* Drive to Bad Doberan, outside- and inside-visit of the Minster of Doberan, optional: visit of the cloister store with regional products * Drive to Kühlungsborn and sightseeing tour to the watch tower (information about GDR and sea side resort architecture), time for lunch at the sea or a snack (on your own expenses) and free time * Drive to Rostock, passing by Heiligendamm - Germanys oldest seaside resort (G8 summit in 2007 was held here), sightseeing tour in Rostock (Kröpelin gate, cloister of the holy cross, university, inside visit of St. Mary's church, New market) * Drive back to Warnemünde
