What to expect

Get to know the Saxon capital Dresden from the sightseeing double-decker and use the 22 stops in the city area for your individual sightseeing. By Hop-On Hop-Off you can get off and on the whole day, how and where you want.

The double-decker buses of the Grand City Tour stop every 15-30 minutes at the most famous sights of Dresden. Whether Zwinger, Frauenkirche, Theaterplatz with Semperoper or Blaues Wunder - see all the highlights of the city. All children under the age of 15 can experience a children's city tour in German at the same time.

The tours are supplemented by a city tour on foot with a certified tour guide in German and English - already included in the ticket. On this tour, you'll visit the inner courtyard of the Dresden Zwinger, walk along the famous Fürstenzug and stroll around the Frauenkirche across Dresden's Neumarkt square.

And the best thing about it: The evening is far from over! End your exciting day with an entertaining night watchman tour in German through the old town.

    Wer Dresden noch nicht kennt, der bekommt über die Bustour einen schönen und informativen Einblick. Die Mitarbeiter sind sehr hilfsbereit und sehr freundlich. Die Möglichkeit unterwegs auszusteigen, sich etwas anzuschauen und entweder an der gleichen Haltestelle wieder zuzusteigen oder an einer anderen Haltestelle, runden das Angebot sehr gelungen ab.

    Die Bus-Tour an sich ist sehr zu empfehlen. Man kann alle Highlights sehen, die Dresden zu bieten hat und die Busse fahren alle 15-20 Minuten. Nun das Negative: die immer unterschiedlichen Busfahrer verlangten alle einen QR-Code zum Scannen. Allerdings ist auf dem Voucher von TUI kein QR-Code drauf. Dies bereitete immer Probleme und es war eine unangenehme Situation. Wir konnten zwar trotzdem jedes Mal mitfahren, aber die Busfahrer hatten auch keine Erfahrung mit dem TUI Voucher. Sonst sehr gut!

    Mit der online Bestätigung war es nicht einfach vor Ort das Ticket für den Bus zu bekommen, ich musste 2 verschiedene Personen aufsuchen bis ich endlich in den Bus einsteigen konnte. Bei der Stadtführung zu Fuss, hat der Tourgide (ein Holländer) praktisch nur über den Krieg erzählt und seine eigene politische Meinung mitgeteilt, das fand ich unnötig.
