Welcome to Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania - the holiday destination for most Germans in summertime! Between May and September you can imagine thousands of visitors here enjoying the most beautiful countryside - beaches, castles, history - a fine selection of highlights is waiting for you to be discovered. As a qualified tour guide (Chamber of Commerce, Rostock) I am specialised in guiding in English - other languages available on demand. I love to show you around some of our typical Hanseatic towns - Rostock, Wismar, Schwerin, Luebeck, Hamburg - the Mecklenburg countryside - Bad Doberan, Heiligendamm, seaside resort of Kuehlungsborn and the typical manor houses - Roggow, Gross Siemen, Buettelkow, gardens - Marihn, Siemen, Neustrelitz - and castles - Guestrow Castle, Schwerin Castle, Wiligrad Castle, Ludwigslust Castle. My favourite topics are history, social life and locally produced food - I like to invite guests to private houses for teas and coffees during the tours - time permitting. Maybe you are interested to trace your family roots then you can be sure I am the right person to deal with. I am very familiar with all regional sources of information like the State Archive of Schwerin enz. Please do not hesitate to contact me!

We had a wonderful time with Karin touring Rostock and Warnemunde, she was able to show us things that you could never see on a tour bus. We had coffee and sweets in a little café that was fantastic. She is very knowledgeable and we learned many things. Karin was able to accommodate my husbands walker and was adapted the tour to his needs. We would highly recommend this tour.

We were very lucky to have Karin as our guide. She was able to weave in her and her family experiences on our tour. She was most orofessional and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend her!

Karin is an amazing lady and incredible guide. She perfectly paced our excursion, especially since it was 90+ degrees F that day and that my group is older. Not only is she well-versed in the history of Warnemunde and Rostock, she shared her personal experiences of her family's life living behind the "iron curtain." We were all mesmerized by her stories. We cruised the river, rode the tram, and the train. Our finale was coffee and dessert at a high rise hotel which gave us an incredible view.

Karin was terrific....we had 4 people and she addressed the interests of each person. We have travelled frequently over the past decade but this was our first experience with Tours By Locals. We will utilize the service again in the future.
