Decent
Andy_D, Dec 2025
Was suprised how much we enjoyed this considering the price. Covered off the key aspects of Bamberg with some interesting information. We failed miserably at the quiz but that was pretty irrelevant
Response from Host, Jan 2026
Hi Andy, thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed discovering Bamberg and found the tour good value for the price. And yes, the quiz is meant to be light and playful, so no worries. Thanks again for joining!
Great little tour at a great price.
Archie_A, Dec 2025
Great little tour. Allowed me to see things I wouldn’t have seen and learn some new stuff. Definitely great for the price. Only issue was the path to the last stop was closed for some reason (gate was locked). Could have gotten there another way but would have added 20 minutes on and didn’t have the time. Other than that it was great. At the church, the recording was reading special characters when describing the 6 statues outside the entrance. “Less-than, greater-than, blah blah blah”
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you so much for your review, we are really happy you enjoyed discovering Bamberg with the tour and felt it was great value. I am sorry about the closed path to the last stop and the strange audio reading out the special characters, we will update the route instructions and fix that recording so it flows naturally. Thank you again for helping us improve the experience.
Never worked, wasted money and time.
Mark R, Nov 2025
Got to the start point in Bamberg and could not get the tour to start. No matter what I entered on the website, it would not accept the confirmation code and start the tour. We never got to do the tour after 40 minutes of frustrating effort (and I am tech savvy). Wasted money and time.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Hi Mark, Thank you for sharing your experience — we’re really sorry for the frustration you had. ???? That definitely shouldn’t have happened, especially after you took the time to get to the start point. Sometimes connection or browser issues can block the code from being recognized, but we completely understand how disappointing that must’ve been. Please reach out to our support team (info@ciceru.com) — we’ll be happy to help you access the tour or arrange a refund. ????
Beer Tour
Vickie_J, Oct 2025
The only negative thing … so much food … so much beer. Perfect way to sample Bamberg’s beer. Do some research first. Locals were so nice and offered great suggestions. Be sure you pace yourself. Beautiful walkable city. One of the best stops and tours on our itinerary. Have fun!
Response from Host, Oct 2025
