the trip was perfect.. not too long & not too short.. It can be quite tricky in Potsdam with so many places to go to. Our guide was Duerte. He was quite good & gave us a good amount of info on every site he took us to.
My suggestion would be to equipped with a good pair of comfortable shoes, since there is a lot of walking involved on cobbled stone roads!

Susan was an incredible tour guide with a passion for history and sharing knowledge! If you asked a question, she would know the answer. It was an incredible tour of Potsdam (a beautiful city), and I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a great day tour to learn more about German culture and experience history.

My family & I went on the Potsdam day tour with Rochale (hope I've spelled it correctly!) in mid-January 2020 and had a fabulous day. Rochale obviously enjoys Potsdam herself because she was vibrant, enthusiastic, and had a huge amount of knowledge about not only the sites she was showing us, but also how those sites and the rulers of the past connected with each other and then impacted the various events that take us up to the present time. She certainly knew her dates, kings, wars, etc, but she also had a wealth of more personal information about the people and places she was discussing, which really helped to bring the stories to life.

Berlin was our last stop in a European holiday that spanned 11 cities and we'd done at least one one walking tour in each city (3 in Berlin!), and Rochale was the best of the best.

Totally recommend both the Potsdam day tour, and Rochale as a walking tour guide!

If I was to change anything, I'd like the tour to include an extra hour in the middle of the day (the lunch break) so that there would be enough time to have a little wander through the Old Town, and to have more than a take-away sandwich at lunchtime. (Our group was fabulous - I'd have loved to sit down and had a chat over a nice meal with them!)

Rochele gave us a tremendously engaging day to and from Potsdam. Full of anecdotes, history, open about current living in Berlin, she was the best guides I've had in 20 years of city guides. She won't leave you behind! The tour doesn't take in everything, but enough to give you the vibrant history and the sort of "behind the scenes" place that Potsdam takes in world history. Fascinating.

Susan Grouchy was our tour guide and I can't recommend her enough. She has a masters in Historical sites so she was really experienced. She was so enthusiastic which naturally made you enthusiastic and upbeat considering the cold weather. Pre-booking is essential because we managed to squeeze on a tour. The potsdam tour took you through some great places. It was very beautiful and so much history to take in.
