Tour Reviews
We were welcomed with a smile at our hotel by Amir. From the moment we met until the end of the day we felt comfortable and highly valued. Amir was passionate about his tour, sharing information he had researched and researched. If I have the opportunity to be in Bavaria again I will DEFINITELY book another tour with Amir! More than satisfied with our day.
We could not have been more pleased with the time we spent with Amir; we actually spent a full week with him, traveling from Zurich to Lucerne, through Alsace, and to the castles of the Romantic Road. His knowledge was thorough and he was fun to be with. We laughed, learned, and had a wonderful time. He was attentive, thoughtful and was flexible about what we did and how long we wanted to spend at each place. We look forward to spending more time with him!
My family and I had traveled to Europe over Easter spring break as one of my kids was studying abroad. As we had wanted to see this castle we were lucky to have stumbled across Amir and his tour. We were in Fussen for the day and were beyond satisfied with how Amir presented the history and insights to what we would see and hear once inside. Inside the castle tours are run by a separate company but we met at a hotel where he picked us up, took us to the bridge, the lake, around the castle, got us skip the line tickets, and a carriage ride back down. His humor and professionalism and the evidence that he has a full knowledge of the subject were more than we could have hoped for! While the weather was not the best (Easter this year was April first) it was a trade-off with not having to wait for what could have been hours during peak season and it was not as tourist filled. Would definitely consider using his services again!
Amir was incredible! We went to Neuschwanstein. He was extremely knowledgeable about the castle’s history and exceptionally engaging! Highly recommend 🙂
We were booked for a private tour at Neuschwanstein fortress 🏰 but things didn’t go as well expected and we were late. He waited until we reached which was almost an hour later. When we reached out, we asked him the history of the fortress. He said that we wanted him to tell us what he wanted to tell us for 3 hours in 5 mins. He also kindly offered us to join the public tour. He said that he would get the tickets for us and all we needed to do is come to the fortress parking at 9:00. We were the first one to reach. He told us to sit on the bus 🚌 and tell the bus driver we were from his group. At the fortress he entertained us, kept us on our feet, and at the same time kept asking questions about history which was hard, and we needed to research.
We learned things not in any guide books in a fun hands-on way. The excursion was a fun and learning experience about the history of the fortress and the family.
We were glad Amir was able to guide us. His kindness and jovial nature and deep knowledge and love for the subject shined through and through.
We are grateful we got to experience this fortress with Amir and his in-depth knowledge
Amir was a really great tour guide! He is very knowledgeable and passionate about history, and was able to teach us a lot about the places we visited, providing so much interesting context we wouldn’t get otherwise. He was very open and flexible with our day, and really wanted to ensure it was the best it could be! He was also just a kind, warm person- and made us so happy we opted for a private tour. Thank you, Amir! We really enjoyed visiting Neuschwanstein and Linderhoff palace. We wouldn’t have visited Linderhoff without his recommendation and ease of transport.
Amir was wonderful! From the start to the end he made the whole tour very special! He even planned an amazing surprise engagement that went so smoothly! And spectacular views of the castle from the bridge. We appreciated everything from the carriage ride to the tasty donuts! Very much recommend going on a private tour with Amir!
Hope to come back one day !
