Not worth the money

Actually a nice tour through Stralsund's city center. But: at least in the back of the car, you don't understand a word from the driver and the assembly line, because it's just way too loud there when it goes over cobblestones. Asked about this after the Tour, the very self-absorbed rider Oliver reacted only with a derogatory remark, without really looking at us.

Great Sky train ride in Stralsund.

You just have to join in - great event - lots of sights and great stories. You see a lot and get told a lot about the history of Stralsund.

First come, first served. At least with strollers.

The ad says "suitable for strollers", but this only applies to a stroller. So we had to change our baby quickly in cold winds and put it into the carrier, but there were still unnecessary comments from the guide. He made several recommendations during the tour, so that at some point they could no longer be taken seriously. I would have liked less "band announcements" and more information directly from the guide. So for me it was too much information at once. Value for money is good and I would also recommend the city tour.

Time travel in Stralsund

Once a city tour through narrow streets in the old town, where no bus can go. Very nice driver , as well as a good explanation of each section during the tour. Cool driver came from Lake Constance to Stralsund. 🌞

A relaxed "stroll"...

A relaxing "stroll" with the "Dicken Nele" through the old town. In addition to the standard information, there were also current notes

Inappropriate city tour

A guide of the fat Nele like Oliver from the Allgäu , one should think carefully. The man who praises himself in a not funny way , but rather unpleasant , makes one visit the wonderful old town of Stralsund without a nice memory..

Air upwards

The tour through the beautiful old town was informative and you get a good overview, this via tape. However, one could well do without the exaggerated self-expression of the driver Olli and would rather be treated as a human instead.
