Hello Rick Steves Tours. Are you planning any trips for summer 2024 to visit the Luther sites of Germany? If not, do you have a recommendation for a company that would provide such a tour? Thank you.

You can email the Rick Steves office to reach them, but I think it's unlikely they have plans to run a Luther centered tour.
The 2023 Germany tours are here, and it is likely 2024 tours will be similar.

I found this company that offers a tour that seems to be a match your interests. No personal experience with them

I did a few Luther sites on my own, no company, one such place was in Magdeburg. The cathedral then ( July 2009) was undergoing refurbishing and all that but one was allowed to see it. I would suggest Magdeburg an der Elbe in connection with Luther, one reason because of the horrific history that ensued.

The one city that Rick seems to ignore is Worms! I would add that to my list of Luther towns. There is a Luther Pilgrimage route that many churches include for a day out, walking part of it.
You might want to look up this route and plan visits to the towns along it and then book tours in each of those towns.
