It was a blistering windy afternoon when we met with Una. Her knowledge of Dresden made us very attentive and interested to know more. She was always looking for the group and giving us suggestions of the various things that we wished to know ie cafes and restaurants and local transport. At the conclusion of the tour she brought us to a lovely local restaurant that we had requested for earlier. The food there was great! Overall an informative and enjoyable tour although we wish it was longer but we only had a day in Dresden. Thank you Una.A quick and informative guide to Dresden

Our guide, Una, did a fantastic job to provide a wonderful, delightful, educational and entertaining tour of the hight points of Dresden. She took everything into account; the crowds, the weather, our age, our level of hunger, our "bucket list," etc. to give us the hand-crafted, one-of-a-kind, once in a lifetime tour. And none of my questions were too dumb - she had a patient answer for all.. We are still delighted! Delighted in Dresden.

Una provided a really well balanced tour of the city. She talked us thru the major sites of Dresden and also shared less known areas of interest. We never would have found those areas. Thanks una!Great tour of the city

We had a very nice time with Una and enjoyed the walk. She is Great! The booking on the website did not work. Had to make the booking three times and poor Una did not know, when and at what time we should meet. The way you lure people to book at €50 per person is based on four people. Just make it clear how much it is per person for a smaller group. Will definitly not use Withlocals again.Experience Dresden

Una knows the city in it's current form and is great if you want tips on where to see music and art events, or need dinner ideas. The description on the website could be improved to represent the experience more accurately. All in all, we had a lovely evening walking around the city with Una.A nice evening walk with Una
