Trip Info
Join us for a fascinating day trip with private bus and tour guide to Dresden – the royal residence of the Kings of Saxony, who established a city of such cultural and artistic splendour that it was named ‘The Pearl of the Baroque’ and is still today considered one of Germany’s most beautiful cities.
Dresden is however more widely known for the devastating and controversial Allied bombing campaign of February 1945. US and Royal Air Force bombers dropped some 3,900 tons of high-explosive and incendiary bombs on the city in the space of three days, destroying 13 square miles of the city and causing a firestorm of such intensity that many of the estimated 40,000 civilian casualties died of asphyxiation.
Your adventure awaits!
