Do this tour your first day! You will appreciate Bavaria and navigate the city so much better afterward. Tour guide Ozzy is the most genuine, friendly and caring person! He treated our family like part of his village, and he had so much history and wisdom to share. You will be happy you signed up.

This was hands down the most informative, local-led tour we have had yet! Want to hear about the history of the area? This is the tour for you. What to hear about the spots where the locals go? This is the tour for you. There is so much to learn all on a couple square blocks and this is the best tour for sure.

Overview

See Munich through the eyes of a local, with a guide who is native to the city. This half-day tour puts the spotlight on the city's character through commentary about Munich's history, and cultural experiences like a Bavarian food and beer tasting. Even better: The experience is capped at just 15 people per group for a more intimate and sociable tour.
  • Get an immersion into Munich life, away from the tourist perspective
  • Learn how to get around Munich with tips from your local guide
  • Experience Bavarian beer and food culture during a mid-tour break
  • Have the chance to meet likeminded travelers on a small-group tour

Fabulous Munch

JoAnne_W, Oct 2026
Book a tour with Aussie!! He was fabulous He gave us so much local information from past and present. Even advised us to check the price of beer as that would tell you if the restaurant was expensive or ok!

Our tour with Ozzy was...

Amy_N, Oct 2026
Our tour with Ozzy was amazing! We were in town for Oktoberfest and I am glad that we were able to see the city while we were there. Ozzy met our group at Hotel Excelsior and took us over to the Old Town area. The level of detail, knowledge, and breakdown of both the past & present history of Munich what exactly what we needed. Kid you not he’s basically a Munich celebrity - everywhere we went the locals knew him and it was a joy to see the light & impact he brings to his community. Thank you again, Ozzy!

Great tour and great...

Shay_B, Oct 2026
Great tour and great guide!! Memorable experience! I would recommend to anyone visiting Munich for the first time!

Book this tour. You won’t regret it!

Kelly_P, Sep 2026
We had such a great experience with Ozzy! He is a wealth of knowledge about the history of Bavaria. We truly learned way more than we thought that we ever would on this walking tour. We highly recommend booking this experience on the first day or two of your trip to Munich, like we did. Ozzy will help you have a depreciation for his homeland’s rich history.

Excellent tour!

Kristen_K, Sep 2026
We met just after 9 and saw so much of Munich before breaking a little after 1. We covered a lot of ground, got an excellent orientation to the city, and were well equipped to get around on our own after the tour. Highly recommend!

Great overview of Munich!

Virginia_K, Sep 2026
Ozzy was a terrific tour guide who not only gave historical information but current information to help make your time in Munich better. Definitely recommend!

Ruined Day

Oleg_B, Sep 2026
Waste of money and time. First hour we moved several meters (not far away from meeting point) with info of operator roots. Tour guide was rude from the beginning when he found that my origin is from Ukraine. Start complaining when my wife step out couple steps from the group. Then he didn’t like how I am standing, after that I moved to the back. Then he made provocative statements that Ukraine cause everything that is bad (natural gas, gasoline prices, Ukrainians, etc.) He made us to leave the tour.

The tour guide was fun...

Diane_L, Sep 2026
The tour guide was fun and very knowledgeable. But we did a LOT of just standing around while he talked and he also went off on a few political tangents. I was hoping for more walking (since it's a walking tour) plus more education on the buildings and history and less of the tour guide's personal opinions. He was also quite repetitive. I was on a walking tour of Munich 10 years ago and the guide was incredible so maybe that's why I was a little disappointed.

Guide was very...

glenn_p, Sep 2026
Guide was very informative and also entertaining. He made the walking tour fun, and would definitely recommend this tour

It’s Bavaria!

Do not miss this tour

Sateesh_N, Sep 2026
Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and charming. He explained a hot of not just Munich history but also German history in general. Very thoughtfully put together tour.

10 out of 10 would recommend.

Kalina_S, Sep 2026
Better than I imagined. I imagined a basic informative tour. I instead got the experience of a lifetime. Our tour guide was insightful, inspiring, hilarious and intelligent. He was thoughtful and entertaining. You can tell he took it seriously and had all the passion for it. I fell in love with the city before even experiencing it myself just from this tour alone. Afterwords I appreciated my vacation much more than I could have without it. And he definitely it feel easier to get around and know what to do on our own when the tour was overr. Honestly, we were sad when it was over.

An Absolute Must for Visiting Munich

Anne_P, Sep 2026
Ozzy was our tour guide, and I can't praise him enough. We spent 4 hours and learned so much about Munich and the Bavarian people. He was extremely funny and informative. We had such a wonderful time. I recommend him to everyone who travels to Munich. He gave a thorough tour of history, politics, architecture, culture, geography, and beer! We learned so much and enjoyed every minute. Ozzy is the best. I would do it all over again. Thanks, Ozzy for making it amazing!

Excellent Tour

Wonderful tour and Ossie is the best guide ever!

SukChing_A, Sep 2026
Our tour guide Ossie was great! He is so knowledgeable and pleasant. He knows his history of Munich and surrounding areas. As we walked around the market, many of the patrons and shop owners would say hi and gave him a hug. I love his lederhosen that he wears cinductingbtoyrs and even on his one dsy off. We definitely went overtime but we were able to see most of the city. Thank you!

Interesting tour

Paul_G, Sep 2026
Great tour guide and very animated. Always a treat to learn about a site from a locals point of view. Only problem was as we approached the Glockenspiel plaza, the bells were playing and the figurines were spinning around. I stopped to record the event, as it ended I lost my group in the very large crowd and never found them.

Best tour ever!!

Brittany_B, Sep 2026
This was the best tour ever!!! Ozzie was an INCREDIBLE guide who made our day so wonderful. He was so knowledgeable and fun to be around. I would recommend this tour to absolutely anyone and everyone.

Amazing!

Lacy_W, Sep 2026
We loved learning about Munich; the history, the day to day life, surprising facts and overview of everything in Old Town. Ozzy was easy to hear and understand, and made the entire experience wonderful. He clearly knows and understands Munich inside and out, one of the best tours we’ve ever taken.

Excellent tour and tour guide

Walter_T, Sep 2026
We were given an overview if the old section of Munich by our knowledgeable tour guide, a tall man who was half Bavarian and half Bahamian, as he explained. He has a love for his city and country as well as a love for his work. We saw the old buildings and got a history lesson about each one, including names, dates, and interesting back stories. He made sure we all stayed in a group, as some of us were older and slower. Several people who'd been on his tours before came by to say hello and to hug him. He seemed to be well known and highly thought of everywhere we went. I could not have asked for a better experience in touring Munich.

Fun and entertaining.

Mario_C, Sep 2026
Not your usual dull history lesson. Fun and informative at the same time. Highly recommend. A must do tour.

Two travelers from Texas

Brenda_B, Sep 2026
Nice tour with Ozzie - for us did not need all the history but definitely learned a lot and did get our bearings of the city. Saw many historical sights. Nice walking tour

Exceptional Tour

Beth_H, Aug 2026
Ozzie was an exceptional tour guide who shared so much knowledge about Munich, Bavaria and past/current events in Germany. The walking tour lasted about 4 hours with a brief stop for lunch at a local butcher shop. Ozzie timed the tour perfectly so that we could see the Glockenspiel clock show at 11am too. Highly recommend!
