“I am English with a schoolboy level of German, I booked a German language tour in error, hahaha. However I thought I'd try to immerse myself and so went ahead with the trip and found the Guide spoke very clearly so I was able to pick out the words quite easily. I think I followed his talk on the walk fairly well and enjoyed the coach tour. Top guiding... 😀”
