Summary:
Excellent small group tour (group of five) of Rostock with a local guide every step of the way for 4-5 hours. Met on time at the cruise building and was the same price as the cruise line tour; but theirs was a bus group of thirty, so this was much a better value and experience. Great guide : a retired professor at Rostock University . Highly recommend.
