Daris was amazing! Luckly there was just the two of us so we were able to adjust the experience to accommodate my needs. He was very informative. Very considerate and just a lovely person!
Outstanding tour guide (Darious) History and beauty of the castle was magnificent
Tour was fantastic. Darius was a great guide. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in the history of Nuremburg and the beer at the end is great way to finish your walk.
You learn from a local resident who will not only give you history, but personal details of life in Nuremberg. Great storyteller.
Darius is the man! He was very personable and able to draw in his audience and explain in a way where people can understand the information he’s trying to convey at all levels. He was fun to talk to and the tour felt very personalized and I would highly recommend booking with him.
Super leadership with D. (Fratello) Were traveling with him as a JGA and can recommend it without restriction.
We had a great and dedicated tour of the old town and Nuremberg , Darius is very well informed and could answer all our questions supplemented with historical knowledge. He is very friendly and super likeable, we can highly recommend such a tour. You can feel the passion for your city.
The guide was extremely knowledgeable about Nuremberg and the unique characteristics that make doing a structured tour so worth it!
Such an informative and well catered tour route with everything you would wanna learn about and see in the city!!! Darius was hands down the best host and tour guide with an incredible vibe and such energy throughout the entire day! The beer tasting at the end was the perfect exclamation point on a perfect day of sightseeing and history learning! I would recommend any and every one to do this tour!
I cannot recommend Darius highly enough. My friend and I were in Nuremberg for the first time and had booked Fratello Tours for a tour of the Castle and Old Town. We had trouible finding the meeting point but Darius was incredibly patient, friendly and helpful. He grew up in Nuremberg and has an incredible knowledge of the history and cultutre of the city as well as a deep love for it, which made for a very 'local'and personal tour. Our own knowledge of Nuremberg was practically non-existent and not being history-buffs either, Darius naturally adjusted the content and pitch of the tour and tailored it to our interests and capacity. I was very impressed by this and got the sense that he would be able to accommodate all sorts of visitors, and pitch it at their level of knowledge and interest. He also introduced us to the oh so delicious Elisen-Lebekuchen, and so we now know that all Lebekuchen is not created equal! Thank you for the best tour of our trip, Darius and sorry it's taken us a while to write a review. Wishing you a very happy New Year!
