Baden-Baden once was THE place to be in Europe

Baden-Baden once was THE place to be in Europe in the 19th century. A playground of the rich and famous. It was then known as ‘The Summer Capital of Europe’. And without a doubt, Baden-Baden was the most elegant and sophisticated city in Europe at that time. Explore this beautiful Black Forest town on a private tour with our certified guide. On a 2 hour tour we will take you around the old town centre and show you corners often missed. All our tours are private tours so we can focus on what you want to see and do in Baden-Baden.

Nothing better than a Guided Tour

All our Baden-Baden Walking Tours are private tours – which means the guide can focus on what you want to see and learn. Not interested in the history of the thermal baths?

Two Altstadt Tours

My wife and I booked two walking tours of Freiburg with Black Forest Tours since we had such a marvelous experience back in 2019 touring the Black Forest. Each tour was easy to book with the most difficult part being which of the many enticing tours to book. Simone was prompt and detailed with her responses to our emails making the process smooth as silk.

Both of our guides (Barbel for the first - a walking tour of the old town and cathedral -and Doro for the second - a food tour of the market plus other shops) were knowledgeable and engaging and made the four hours of touring the old town zip by. Each had to sidestep potential issues when a funeral at the cathedral interfered with our Monday tour and the rainy weather made finding a dry spot to have the lunch we picked out challenging.

We certainly learned a great deal on both tours. The market unit measures etched into the cathedral foundation, the stdone mason's wage protest gargoyle, the lange rote cart histories, etc. all really aded to our regular enjoyment of the Altstadt of Freiburg - a place we both really like. Whether our travels ever bring us back to Freiburg is another story but we ever do we will be sure to contact Black Forest Tours.

Excellent experience with Bärbel, our guide, who went from deep historical notes to current items. She met us in a timely manner, and was very personable and pleased to share her experiences and knowledge with us.

We visited Freiburg for a half-day and took a private tour with Black Forest Tours. Our guide, Iris, was fantastic. We learned so much about the history of Freiburg. Iris showed us some of the main sites and areas of Freiburg, but also the hidden gems. Iris was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. After our tour, we felt we could really appreciate the unique charm of Freiburg and its people. Thank you!

Annemarie was a super guide. She showed us around Freiburg, pitching it just right (our group included 4 children aged 10, 11, 13 and 14). A really enjoyable way to experience Freiburg.
