Description

This tour is a great option for all classical music lovers but also for those who want to discover Leipzig's best gems. Meet your private guide around the station, travel by a comfortable train to avoid traffic jams, and explore the city on a 4-hour walking tour. Discover the city's most important churches: St. Nicholas Church and St. Thomas Church. Both of them are related to the life of the great composer Bach. They attract tourists not only with their unique architecture and beautiful interior but also with their interesting history. Continue your music-themed private tour and see the famous Gewandhaus concert hall. It is the home of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra. Hear the stories of its famous composers and admire the stunning architecture. Immerse yourself in the world of classical music during a visit to the Bach Museum. It is widely known as the world’s greatest centre of Bach scholarship. Explore Bach’s most important life highlights, learn about his family, and listen to his phenomenal musical pieces. If you choose a tour on a Monday, you will visit the Panorama Tower instead of the museum, as the museum is closed on that day. Enjoy a unique opportunity to admire the panorama of the city from a height of 120 meters. Continue your tour and stroll around the Markt. This historic market square is a charming place, perfect for a relaxing walk. The farmer's market is held there twice a week, so if you are lucky you will have the opportunity to buy fresh products from throughout the region. Finally, see the Richard Wagner monument, built to celebrate the 200th birthday of this famous great German composer. Afterward, return to Berlin on the train.
