Well worth it!

Definitely get to see and cover more on a bike tour. Great intro. to Munich. Mike's friendly, professional staff are amazing. I got totally lost and was very late. So grateful to the office lady who kindly turned my diaster into a very positive experience. She organised a staff member to lead me to the tour that was already underway. Bob, tour leader, was welcoming & very infomative regarding Munich's past/present history. We were quite a large group, Bob taught bike lane protocol, crossing safety & guided us well along bike lanes & streets. Glad to have been able to do this excursion with Mikes Bike tours. Well worth doing!

Our guide, Leon, was a wonderful navigator and was also very knowledgeable regarding his beautiful city. We were only in the city for a few days and we finished our tour with a recommended list of places to eat and places to explore. I couldn’t recommend this activity enough, especially if you’re a history geek or just want to touch the surface of what Munich has to offer!

Nuremberg Guided Day Trip from Munich by Train

Julio_A, May 2026

Great historical tour of Nuremberg

Our tour guide Paul was fantastic. This is a historical tour that goes into not only the ancient history of Nürnberg but also into the details of WWII and how the Nazi party came to be. Paul showed us the major landmarks and we had plenty of chances to take pictures. It is fast paced and we covered a lot of ground. Easy walking surfaces. We even had a 1 hourbreak to eat lunch (we paid ourselves, but sat as a group). If you enjoy learning the historical background of a city, this is for you and Paul is your guide!
