Great start to your Munich visit

Ann_K, May 2026
This was a great, fairly short, Munich “in a nutshell” tour. Sarah was knowledgeable and funny, she really knows Munich and her love for the city is evident. She shared some fun information and stories not only about the Maximilian(s) and Ludwig(s), Munich, Bavaria, Germany, but even used some personal stories to gain insight and perspective on the mindset and culture of the people of Munich. Great kick off to our few days in Munich.

We ended up doing a tour with Leon during our time in Munich. He was friendly, and kind and centered our tour to our interests! He was very knowledgeable and personable and his stories were awesome. He even gave us some great recommendations when it was over! We would’ve missed so much of the unique history of Munich without this experience.

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Thank you Tiffany for writing this great review. We are glad you had a great time on the Old Town Walking Tour with Leon. Best, Radius Tours

Great Tour!

Eva_C, Jan 2026
We did a 2-hour walking tour at the start of our trip, and it was the perfect way to kick off our time in Munich. The tour was incredibly informational, engaging, and genuinely funny-the perfect balance of history, local insight, and humor. Dan, our bearded guide was fantastic: knowledgeable, charismatic, and clearly passionate about the city, with great storytelling that kept everyone entertained the entire time. We learned so much while never feeling overwhelmed or bored. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Munich, it really set the tone for the rest of our trip.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Eva, thank you very much for your great feedback. We wish you all the best for your upcoming travels!

Our walking tour experience was great. We had Adrian as our tour guide and he gave us so much great info. The check in was easy and all the people in the office where we started were very nice. We finished the tour then went to lunch with some of the other travelers on the tour. It was a great day!!!!

Mikhail_Z, Dec 2025
It was just OK. The kids were bored halfway through the tour. Probably could have taken a guidebook and followed it. It was busy so we had a hard time hearing the guide on a part of our trip.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Thank you for sharing your honest feedback with us. Sorry that your kids felt bored on the tour.

Great tour, great guide

Munich Walking Tour

Anastasia_G, Dec 2025
Great walking tour. The pace was just right. Aileen shared lots of interesting modern and older bits history about Munich as we walked around and by many locations. At the end, she was able to offer directions to various places we wanted to visit. We did this on our first day here and were able to revisit the places which we wanted to delve into further

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Anastasia, Thank you for this great review and recommendation of the Munich Old Town Walking Tour. We are glad you enjoyed having Aileen as a guide. Best, Radius Tours

Excellent overview of Munich's history and old town.

Anurag_S, Dec 2025
Very good tour of Munich's old town that covered the main sights. Our guide was Maria was excellent, providing the right level of information without overwhelming with details. While the tour does enter into many of the sights (which we did later on our own), it did provide a good orientation to the history of Munich and the old town.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Hi, thank you for reviewing! Radius Tours

Very engaging!

Suzanne_T, Dec 2025
Great tour — Mark had a lot of information and told us the history in a very engaging manner. Seriously, I've been touring for 10 days now, and I didn't think I could fit one more fact in my head. I was actually planning on leaving the tour early because I'm so tired, but he kept my interest to the very end! Loved the overview of the history of Germany, told through different places that we were visiting along the way.

Response from Host, Dec 2025

Suzsanne, thank you very much for sharing your feedback!
