Dresden is beautiful any time, but particularly bewitching during Advent and Christmas. Explore the cobbled streets of Dresden with a walking tour in English of the historic city centre and learn about the city’s turbulent history from your knowledgeable guide.
Begin your tour at Schlossplatz on the River Elbe and then weave your way through Theaterplatz with one of Europe's most beautiful opera houses and the State Art Collections housed in the magnificent buildings surrounding the square. We walk around the Royal Palace, the Cathedral which reflects Dresden's tumultuous religious history and the magnificent Church of Our Lady on Neumarkt.
Listen to inspiring stories of rebuilding and rebirth after the destruction of the city during World War II. End the tour in one of the Christmas Markets where you can stay on after the tour and explore it on your own, at your own pace, to try local wine and delicacies. We will point you in the direction of the best mulled wine- Glühwein, to raise a toast to beautiful Dresden.
