★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 105 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $229Our pick

Review of the Dresden Christmas Market and Bastei tour from Prague, with transport, timing, food, guide quality, costs, and practical advice.

“This trip is well worth the price. It’s an entire day almost 11 hours including driving. The bridge was breath taking with jaw dropping views. We were lucky because it was a sunny day for us. Lunch in Pirna was delicious, restaurant picked by our tour guide. Then we headed to the Dresden Christmas market which was another breathtaking experience. Our Tour guide Rob gave us a short walking tour and then gave us nearly 3 hours free time. Speaking of Rob, one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. Knowledgable, friendly, great photographer, and a fantastic driver.”
