Discover the beauty of the Bavarian medieval city with this private tour of Rothenburg. You'll be able to choose the starting point and the route you want to take.
Our Private Tours
When booking, you can choose between two different itineraries. Both include an exclusive guide in English. Below, you can see their particularities:
Classic Route (1 Hour)
We'll meet at the time of your choice at the St. George's Fountain in Rottenburg and, from there, we'll take a walk through the main historical sights of the town.
We'll see the medieval Market Square, the Town Hall and its 65-metre-high tower (213 feet) and stop in front of the imposing St. Jacob's Church. We'll also enter the gardens of Rothenburg Castle, where only the chapel of St. Blaise remains.
From the heights, we'll see the dizzying meander of the river Tauber and the curious Topplerschlösschen, a medieval residential tower with a defensive structure. After an hour of sightseeing, the tour ends at the starting point.
Classic Route + St. Jacob's Church (1.5 - 2 Hours)
With this route, you'll follow the same itinerary as the previous one, but you'll also visit the inside of St. James' Church, a pilgrimage temple completed in 1485.
We'll visit this imposing Gothic basilica and its two famous altars: the Altar of the Twelve Apostles and the Altar of the Holy Blood. Two relics made by the masters Friedrich Herlin and Tilman Riemenschneider, you won't miss these two jewels!
Historical Costume
If you wish, you can also take the tour in authentic medieval costume.
