3.Bus Tour with Walking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,384 reviews · from $16

See Leipzig’s key sights by red double-decker bus, with German commentary, a free walking tour, and a stop at the Battle Monument.

“The bus is conveniently located opposite the Hauptbahnhof in Leipzig. We bought our tickets online and had to exchange these at the kiosk for a receipt prior to admission on the bus. Buses run every half an hour & the 13 stops cover the main sights in Leipzig. This tour doesn’t seem to be well catered to foreign tourists as the only commentary available was in German. It was a shame as it would have been nice to hear some of the history of Leipzig along with the local knowledge of a tour guide.”
