Excellent entry for a first visit to Augsburg - We were in Augsburg for the first time. The tour offers a beautiful and informative overview of Augsburg and its history. Our tour guide told a lot about the history of the buildings and Augsburg in general. The tour is moderately demanding, as there are a few kilometers to be covered on foot. Afterwards we went to a gardening business we had discovered on the tour and enjoyed a nice Bavarian snack. The price is a real bargain for the service offered. 100% recommendation for this tour. Anyone visiting Augsburg for the first time should definitely book this tour.

Fabulous guide in a charming town. - I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t get the name of our guide but he wore a hat w a feather in it on the August 28th 2 pm tour. He easily switched from German to English and kept up the momentum for over 2 hours. Augsburg is a vibrant city and it was interesting to learn of its great importance in the past. So much history and interesting buildings. I really enjoyed the tour.

Worth the money and time - The tour guide kept his program light, but had nevertheless well-founded answers also to questions outside his chosen topics. In other words, we found him fit also as a historian of the city. The time spent at the Brecht Museum and especially the museal details we were confronted with at the Fuggerei were excessive in our eyes. The trivia about the youngest Fugger family members were not to our taste. As new residents of Augsburg we were able to insert ourselves in a larger historical and, through hydrographcs, geographical context.

A two hour tour… - It was a nice tour for the price. The guide spoke mainly German with English to follow. Would have liked more background into the formation and the history of the town. A large portion of the tour focused on socialized housing which was interesting but lacked any sizzle.

Not audible - The tour was nice and the guide was friendly. But she was so soft spoken that we couldn’t hear anything she said. I loved the route through the city.

2 hour guided city tour, very crowded, partly uncoordinated - Saturday lunchtime, many groups of about 20 people each start at the same time. Explanations sometimes completely drifted. You had to ask the sights in part, then the guide felt caught and quickly explained something
