Then we are off to the "Altstadt", the older part of Wiesbaden - a city of medicinal waters and wine. You'll discover the harmony between water and wine during this guided tour. Wiesbaden has 27 springs and 4 of them will be the points of interest on this particular tour.

The afternoon is dedicated to gambling. We will visit the Kurhaus which also houses Wiesbaden's elegant gambling casino. Along with Richard Wagner, Fjodor Dostojewski was undoubtedly one of its most famous visitors. It is at this casino that Dostojewski found his inspiration for his novel "The Gambler". There will be a roulette demonstration where you will learn the rules of the game until is time to "Faites votre jeu".
In the evening we will go to Frauenstein, a village west of Wiesbaden. Enjoy the wines and a pleasant meal at one of the local vintner's taverns.
