Tour Guide Service Available If you or your group will be visiting any of the sites or areas shown on this webpage, and you would like to arrange for a guided tour, please send me a message at - walden01 @ comcast.net. Depending on my schedule, I may be available to give you a custom tour of the sites of your choice. The following information applies. My tours are very informal - I act only as an on-site tour guide - I do not arrange transportation, lodging, meals, or itineraries. My tour guide services are geared toward individuals or small groups - larger groups (normally more than eight) will need to make their own arrangements with established travel companies, for entrance to museums and pay sites such as the Kehlsteinhaus (Eagle's Nest) at Berchtesgaden. I can still guide larger groups on-site, once the overall arrangements have been made with the desired establishments. I tailor my tours to be the custom tour of your choice - whatever you want to see, at whatever level of detail. You can have either a basic drive-by introduction to the sites, or a walking tour of whatever length you desire, or if you like to get out in the woods and really see the out-of-the-way and "hidden" sites, we can do that too. My tours run for however long you want - if you want to spend all day tramping through the woods or walking around the sites, that's what we'll do. My fees vary for each site - here are some sample fees. These fees are for the tour, not per person. For comparison, some tour companies charge $70-plus per hour for a dedicated tour guide, while others charge $15-$20 per person for a 2-3 hour walking tour of basic historic sites (you get to see what they show you, not necessarily what you want to see). Schweinfurt area -- $30
per half-day, $50 per day (Fees payable at time of tour. My fees do not include any entry fees to museums, pay sites, etc. Payment can be made in US$ or Euro. Fee schedule subject to change without notice. Since my own schedule is also subject to change without notice from my employer, all arrangements must be considered tentative, until right before the tour date. That is, please do not plan your trip or itinerary based solely on any tour we may schedule, because I might be forced to cancel due to circumstances entirely beyond my control, even at the last minute. Alas, I don't do this for a living, I have to have a "real job" which sometimes conflicts.) Please note that the tours I give are for historical sites associated with the Third Reich - for tours of local scenery or general history, I suggest it would be better to contact a commercial tour company or guide service. walden01 @ comcast.net
