Fashioned For A King: Tour of Dresden's Royal Palace and historic city centre.

Dresden by itself is a rare jewel with an engrossing history and a phoenix like story. A walking tour is essential to do it justice.
But a walking tour is just the bare minimum, for to visit Dresden without experiencing its cultural aspects is to miss a remarkable opportunity. Allow me to guide you through one of its world class museums- The newly restored and reconstructed Royal Palace with the lovingly designed State Rooms. Not just these, the Palace is home to a collection of family heirlooms and treasures unmatched in their diversity and quality.
The best way to see Dresden in satisfying detail without being overwhelmed.
This is a 'must do' tour!
