Discover two of Germany's most notable destinations on this full-day trip from Berlin, combining the historic city of Dresden with the natural landscapes of Saxon Switzerland National Park. Dresden is known as the 'Florence on the Elbe' thanks to its Baroque architecture and cultural heritage.
Your day begins with a guided walking tour of Dresden's historic centre. Along the way, you'll see key landmarks including Neumarkt Square, Frauenkirche, Semperoper, Zwinger Palace, Dresden Castle and the Fürstenzug mural. The tour provides an introduction to the city's history, architecture and cultural significance.
After the guided tour, you'll have free time to spend at your own pace. You can stop for lunch, visit a museum, browse local shops or enjoy a walk along the banks of the Elbe River.
In the afternoon, continue to the Bastei Bridge, an iconic landmark of Saxon Switzerland National Park. Rising around 200 metres above the Elbe River, this sandstone bridge offers panoramic views of towering rock formations, deep valleys, forests, and the winding river below.
After time to explore and take in the scenery, relax on the return journey to Berlin, ending a day that combines history, culture, and nature.
