    Three hours walking tour — Würzburg Residence, Cathedral, and the charming streets of Old Town with an English-speaking guide.

    I highly recommend the English-language tour of the Residence. Our guide Robert was fantastic, providing us with valuable insights into the history and reconstruction following the 1945 air raid. If you enjoyed Versailles, this is a must-visit.H9331EVgregb

    4.6· 10 reviews· 2 hours

    Two hours on foot — explore Würzburg's marketplace, Residence, and optional Marienberg Fortress with a knowledgeable local guide.

    Stefanie A was the finest walking tour guide I have ever encountered. She is eloquent, classy, and a superb storyteller; I could listen to her for hours. While traveling with a group of 12 community college students from Texas, I met my German exchange student in Würzburg along with his family, who had limited English skills. Thanks to her clear and beautiful communication, they could follow most of the tour in English. Stefanie is regal and delightful, and I feel grateful to have experienced her guidance twice—once on our arrival day in Würzburg and again on December 15th. Thank you, Stefanie, for an amazing tour and for helping me select the perfect wine in the Residenz Gift Shop! I enjoyed it with friends back home in Texas, and it was fantastic.CarrieBAnthemSinger
