Great time! - A lovely tour with many stops of places we would have never found on our own. Very knowledgeable guide with many stories and historic details to share. It is a long tour (3 1/2 hours) and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

Highly Recommend this Fantastic Walking Tour - This walking tour was the perfect introduction to the city! The guide was FANTASTIC and was clearly knowledgeable and excited to share Munich with visitors. We lucked out and had a smaller group for the tour and it was clear that this gave our guide room to cater things to us a bit more which enhanced the experience. The pacing of the tour was spot on and the guide also did a great job of building connections and contextualizing the city. I enjoyed this tour so much I was recommending it on the spot to others while on other experiences in the city.

Sublime - An absolutely first class tour. Just 3 in our group, Dan was hugely knowledgeable, friendly, engaging and entertaining. The tour covered the buildings of the old town, as well as some key Munich history and culture, especially food, drinks and traditions. His knowledge extended well beyond this however, and all our wider questions were answered with real insight as well. I did this on my first day in Munich and couldn’t recommend it more.

Why it’s the Free State of Bavaria - Historical facts were great. Traditions of Munich and learning how the culture has maintained its history. And how it is a lively and exciting city. Mark explained things very well, answered questions and put things into perspective. His English was amazing.
