See Dresden by hop-on hop-off bus, join two walking tours, and visit Fortress Xperience with this flexible one-day city ticket.
“A pleasant trip through the most interesting and beautiful areas of Dresden. Lots of information. Unfortunately, the recording on the headphones drowns out the voice of the narrator in the background giving information in German. The ticket to the Fortress Xperience is not valid! The ladies at the fortress did not want to accept it, but somehow I managed to get in. The walk around the fortress is also worth experiencing, although I do not think it is a big hit.”
