Our driver picked us up did not speak English and didn’t speak the whole way to Dresden or back. When we arrived we met our guide who was nice and knowledgeable but was not very accommodating. We just walked around town not going in any of the landmarks telling us everything was closed. It was a waste of time for the amount of money for this private tour!!
