Our guide was excellent! He was punctual and showed us a lot of interesting things. We asked him to not show us "tourist traps" and more stuff that locals like. He recommended good restaurants and stores. I would highly recommend him.

Our Guide Laura was wonderful. We requested her to delay the start by an hour since our train from Belin was late and she happily agreed. We got a great overview of the history of Munich and Bavaria and she gave us some excellent eating recommendations!

Good tour of munich

Good introduction to old city Munich.

Eileen_H, Apr 2025
Our guide met us at our hotel and guided us through the main sites of the old city. He provided interesting information and showed photos of the sites taken after the war. He also recommended restaurants and we finished the tour at a lovely cafe. It was an enjoyable morning.

This Tour is One to Choose!

We had great tour with Laura! She took us on a great 2 hour walking tour around Munich and gave us lots of great insights! She was very friendly, great with our kids, and we learned lots of history, along with some good tips and ideas for other ways to enjoy the city. Overall we highly recommend to Laura! Thank You!

Munich has a lot to offer

Cecilia_L, Dec 2024
Wonderful! Tayabeth was so great! She took us to see a couple of things we wanted to see. She was very flexible, as we had seen some sights in advance by ourselves, so she adapted and came up with new sights. We had great conversations and told us about the city! Thank you!

Great 3 hour tour!

Benjamin_W, Dec 2024
Laura was a great tour guide. She was very knowledgable about Munich and its culture, sites, and history. She contacted us the day before to understand our expectations for the tour. She customised it with all of our requests. We booked a 3 hour tour which is perfect. Expect a lot of walking through the streets and sites.

Great intro to Munich

Ron_P, Sep 2024
We had a great trip with Jason. He took us around to various spots in the city, sharing some of the history of what we were seeing, but also some of his personal experiences about these places as well, and the city in general. We finished the day in typical Munich style with a beer at one of the city’s beer halls. Highly recommended.

Amazing & personal

Sherry_S, Sep 2024
I liked that we could ask any questions we had and we were the only couple with the guide. The guide was very knowledgeable about the places we visited.

Jill_P, Oct 2023
Taebeh, was our Guide and picked us up at our Hotel and took us all around the old part of. Munich. She was able to give us a lot of the history of the many Churches, Markets, Promenades, Parks, Squares and Gardens. We had a lovely time getting to know her and see Munich through her eyes. I highly recommend her.

Great way to see the city

David_L, Sep 2022
Our guide was Saad. He was very pleasant and accommodating. This was his first tour. He seemed to need to use his phone to Google or search for answers about Munich history and culture. For a 1st time tour He did a good job. I think he needed a bit more training and practice. He will be great with more time and experience .

MESDEB, Nov 2019
Lydia was an incredible tour guide! She made sure we saw all the highlights, including the best restaurants In the city. She was very thoughtful in making sure she understood what we were interested in and geared her tour specific to our interests. I HIGHLY recommend doing this tour as it provides a lay of the land and gives you an opportunity to see the areas of interest for the remaining days of your vacation. She even sent us additional information the next day for additional highlights of interests for our remaining days of vacation. We were very happy with our tour and would recommend doing this! It was very helpful and made our trip that more enjoyable!
