I am a Heidelberg medical student and have been giving tours at the Body Worlds Museum for over 2 years. In addition to my medical studies, I do a lot of sport. It doesn't matter whether it's beach volleyball on the Neckarwiese, jogging on the banks or rowing on the Neckar, I like to be full of vigour. In my free time I like to read books, travel and meet friends. Heidelberg has become very dear to me over the years and is much more than just studying. I'm also very interested in the origins of the different cities I travel to. I have also collected very exciting facts and information about Heidelberg over the years and would like to share them with other people.

Tour description

I hope that my tour through the beautiful old town will enable you to say, like me, that "I lost my heart in Heidelberg". As a student in Heidelberg, I live in the middle of what is happening in the city and would like to convey the perspective of a student on the one hand and the fascinating history of Heidelberg on the other in a guided tour through the old town.
The best bars, the nicest alleyways, the most stylish buildings and the castle itself give a great insight and should not be missing in a tour.
If you want to experience the history of the origins of the old castle, the long struggle for supremacy in Heidelberg, student life in the past compared to today, the best bars and restaurants in Heidelberg, and life today, you've come to the right place.
I am really happy to be able to show you all this and much more here in Heidelberg.

Ich möchte mich ganz herzlich für die unglaubliche Erfahrung bedanken, die wir während unserer letzten Familienreise nach Heidelberg gemacht haben. Es war ein Abenteuer, das uns allen bleibende Erinnerungen und ein Gefühl von Glück und Zusammengehörigkeit vermittelt hat. Von dem Moment an, als wir den Fuß in diese malerische Stadt setzten, wurden wir mit offenen Armen und echter Herzlichkeit empfangen. Die Tour, das Jonathan für uns geplant hat, war einfach hervorragend. Dank den großartigen Kenntnissen, die Jonathan uns geboten hat, wird Heidelberg für immer einen besonderen Platz in unseren Herzen einnehmen. Wir empfehlen Jonathans Tour von ganzem Herzen jedem, der ein unvergessliches Erlebnis in Heidelberg sucht.

Interessante Tour mit den wichtigsten Stationen der Heidelberger Altstadt. Man merkt, dass Jonathan ortskundig ist. Er war offen für Fragen und hat gerne Empfehlungen ausgesprochen. Er teilte einige historische Hintergründe über die Stadt ohne dass es langweilig wurde.
