I've been on two of these tours and can only say FANTASTIC! I had so much fun and learned a lot…read moreabout Freiburg that I, after years of living here, didn't even know. The guides are so good at getting you into the atmosphere of the Topic. I did two spooky tours, both as a Halloween event and both in English.

We took a tour with Michael, who was dressed in costume and stayed in character as an early…read moreresident of Freiburg. He was an absolute fount of information. It was so fascinating...and it continued for weeks after as we sought out some of the things he told us about, like Bishop's Cross, the death spot of the Bishop of Strassbourg, also we sought out Bishop Konrad's burial sight in Strassbourg cathedral! So you see we were so inspired by our history lesson that we continued it long after the tour was over. Well worth it, don't miss this opportunity.

We were unfortunately unable to take a tour due to Covid complications so this review is based…read moresolely on interacting with Simone. We were able to stop by the office and chat with her and came away very impressed by her integrity and honesty. She was unable to guarantee a guide would be available and provide us with a 100% satisfactory experience so she made the decision not to book our tour. While we were obviously disappointed we respected her decision to not take our money and provide anything less than her ideal of what her company represents. Her concern was for both our and her guides mutual benefit. She was very warm and helpful in suggesting alternatives we could enjoy and self tour by train. Based on our experience with Simone I would absolutely not hesitate to book a tour with Black Forest Tours if we were to return to Freiburg. I am sure it would be an experience that we would cherish forever.

OMG! This review is long overdue but as the saying goes "better late than never". We went to…read moreGermany to pick up our new car and our friends said that a tour to the Black Forest is a must. I found Simone through surfing the web and am so glad I did. She's wonderful, caring, and really made sure we had a great time. We instantly connected with her (she used to work around our neighborhood in the States) as if we've known her forever. One thing we really appreciated is that she didn't mind us using our new car instead of hers, which is how she normally conducts her tours. We learned a lot about the Black Forest as Simone is very knowledgeable about its history and the various backstories surrounding it. Every place she took us had a story that's rich and inspiring! There's still so much to see and the next time we visit, we'll make sure to get in touch with Simone again. Not only did we fully enjoy her tour, we also made a new friend. You rock, Simone! Thanks for making memories with us. We hope to see you again soon!!!
