Hesse (/ˈhɛsə/) or Hessia (German: Hessen [ˈhɛsn̩], Hessian dialect: Hesse [ˈhɛzə]) is a federal state (Land) of the Federal Republic of Germany, with just over six million inhabitants. The state capital is Wiesbaden; the largest city is Frankfurt am Main. Until the unification of Germany, the territory of Hesse was occupied by the Grand Duchy of Hesse, the Duchy of Nassau, the free city of Frankfurt and the Electorate of Hesse, known also as Hesse-Cassel. Due to divisions after World War II, the modern federal state does not cover the entire cultural region of Hesse, which includes both the State of Hesse and the area known as Rhenish Hesse (Rheinhessen) in the neighbouring state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

Martin Luther is NOT the same historical figure as MARTIN LUTHER KING Jr. Germany is not the same nation as the US. Martin Luther was the great GERMAN reformer of the 1500s. Martin Luther King Jr. was the great civil rights American reformer of the 1960s. I keep trying to help this organization, but they don't seem to worry about trivia like historical facts.

I booked this tour and received Confirmation. A few hours later my tour was Cancelled. No reason was provided. By the time I received notice of the Cancelation, there was no time to book something else to fill the hole in my schedule this created. If they had a problem and could not provide th tour, why accept and confirm my reservation, and then cancel later the same day? Very unprofessional.

Liz was very entertaining and charming and even helped us navigate our way to our next activity. We loved every minute of the food tour and highly recommend Liz!

I was disappointed that despite booing this Tour, I received last minute notice that it had been cancelled due to rain. They did not mention this possibility when I booked it. If they had I would have checked the weather before, and booked something else. As it happened, this left a hole in my schedule that I could not5 fill at the last minute.
