Raymond was very thorough and kept us fully engaged. The tour was excellent. Black Forest duration could've been further increased, it was most relaxing.

Europes largest waterfall Rhine River

We only drove past the Black Forest area no stopping or hiking in it not sure what I expected but kind of false advertising? First stop a tourist area for cucumber clocks o was bored though lake Titisee was nice 30 minutes there would have been fine The Rhine River waterfall in Schaffhausen was very nice beautiful and scenery along way was nice ! Our guide Beatrice very informative and helpful

Great Tour

Raymond and Nazarí did an amazing job. Raymond explained alot during our drive, as well as when we arrived to our destinations. Nazarí did a great job driving and getting us there safely. The tour itself was beautiful, you only get about an hour in each destination. However, the bus ride itself has some beautiful views and it's great for those that don't want to do a lot of walking but still want to see something new and get some beautiful views in. We went on a hot day and it was perfect, since we can't be out in the heat for too long. Black forest, titsee and the falls were great. Thanks again to Raymond and our bus driver!
