Summary:
My husband and I enjoyed an evening tour led by Henry. The walk along the Neckar River in the evening light was peaceful, and Henry's historical insights were informative. The visit to Marktplatz added a nice local touch. A well-guided tour for a different view of Heidelberg in the evening.
