Excellent history!

Hermann was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable and could answer all of our questions. He also lead the tour at a good, moderate pace that allowed for picture taking.

Best way to get introduced to Old Town Nuremberg

Mary_A, Dec 2025

Nuremburg was our ending point of a Christmas Market Riverboat Cruise. One of the cruise directors had insisted we needed to take a walking tour of Old Town so we booked this tour. Our guide, Hermann, was extremely knowledgeable of Nuremburg history (history major). He met us at our hotel which was close to the south gate where we started our tour. He was very flexible on the agenda as we had an overall city tour already. He was able to answer all our questions and we even stopped at a coffee shop he recommended, that roasted their own beans, to grab a coffee. We purchased some beans to take home as gifts. To end the tour he took us back to the main Christmas market to show us where the stall was located that made the fresh gingerbread. He was a very personable young man. We couldn't have been luckier to have found this walking tour.

Hermann was an excellent...

Hermann was an excellent guide. He was very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He not only provided an exceptional overview of Nuremberg history, he also provided local insights into places to visit and tips for foodie’s experience. Overall a wonderful experience.

Great Tour - Great Guide

Very interesting tour and great guide

Hermann is a very knowledgeable guide. He did an excellent job explaining the history of Nuremberg and the sites related to the Middle Ages. He was very accommodating to our schedule. He even helped with making dinner reservations for us and ended the tour at the restaurant.
