Amazing winter tour - After a few years trying some winter tours in other cities around Germany, we decided to take a second Christmas market tour in Munich. Just like the first, we had an amazing group with us! These tours attract an international clientele, so if you’re looking to share the Christmas spirit with a global perspective, but with the romance of traditional German festivities, this is the tour you’re looking for.
I appreciate some of the unique experiences that Katrina found for us. She really figured out how to inspire Christmas feeling while still managing a very professional, warm and welcoming walking tour through what I can only imagine must be some of Munich’s most beautiful Christmas markets.
We enjoyed several different markets with numerous stalls. For any visitors who have never had the pleasure of trying it, I strongly recommended the German Gluehwein.

Magical market tour! - I had read many great reviews of this walking tour operator and this did not disappoint. What a magical way to enjoy the holidays. The guide was so knowledgeable and fun I got so much more out of the market than if I had toured in my own. An amazing way to get in the Christmas spirit and have a great outing. Highly highly recommend.

Favourite tour for food and drink! - We had the most incredible time! The balance between the food and drinks was just right; you can tell that a lot of thought was put into the design and delivery of the whole tour from the beginning to the end. Considering the whole experience, the cost was amazing. We learned a lot and truly had so much fun! I highly recommend this tour!

Very fun - This tour was a great experience. Guide was funny and informative. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an interesting tour in English. I've been on four different tours all through Germany and this one was my favourite and the best value for your money.

Amazing Christmas Experience! - This was an absolutely amazing tour! We had a small group which made the tour very intimate. Our guide was very knowledgeable and fun. The food and drinks were great, and the market was amazing. This was my first time in Munich and this tour gave me some great places to check out and a lot of info about the city itself, well worth the cost. This is a must-do of you're here around the holidays and want to get into the Christmas spirit. It was an incredible experience and I can't wait to return to Munich!

Excellent experience — a must! - The tour guide was wonderful — she was attentive and created such a fun, friendly atmosphere. I feel like I really got to experience the market— I honestly think there's no better way to see it. The food was delicious and the wine was top-notch!! I'm looking forward to trying other tours from this tour company on my next trips to Munich. This should be on all travelers' radars.

Falalalalalalalala - I had so much fun on this tour! Our guide shared that she customizes each tour to make sure everyone in the group is filled with the holiday spirit and she definitely succeeded. Within 5 minutes all of us where laughing and making merry and the fun didn’t stop. I was really impressed with the food and the festive drinks on this tour. Personally, i thought previously thought mulled wine was all the same, but we tried several kinds, including various schnapps, delicious wine, mulled beer, and more. This was by far the best Xmas market experience of my entire European vacation! Would recommend for solo travellers.

Great tour and amazing experience - We had such a wonderful time on this tour. Katrina was fantastic and shared historical information, local insights, and her own preferences to help us learn and decide what we wanted to try. We had so much fun with the group, some of us ended up visiting another Christmas market (with guidance on how to get there from Katrina) after the tour together. Can’t recommend this enough.
