We took this tour on the day we arrived in Munich. A great overview of the city: the historical sites, the history, the Christmas markets, and the food. The overview helped us plan so we could explore on our own the next day. Thank you for a wonderful tour!

Ozzie was fantastic! He gived detailed history on Munich while also giving you tips and guidelines to navigating the city. This tour was very informative and helpful. Would absolutely do it it again!

Highly recommend!

Great experience, highly recommend! You will see and learn a lot! Ozzie knows so much and will give you great recommendations for other stuff to do and see after the tour.

Great experience

Travis_H, Mar 2026
Guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and Fun. He said people take the tour multiple times and I can see why it's a lot to take in but it's worth it. If I was in town longer I would take it again. The experience was great and I Couldn't recommend it enough.

Great, informative Munich tour

Mackenzie_D, Mar 2026
Ozzie’s tour was lively, thorough, and informative, hitting on many different aspects of life in Munich.

Take this tour with a local legend!

Ranger_B, Mar 2026
All the reviews are true, Ozzy is incredible! I learned so much on this tour and would highly recommend it to others. Ozzy was engaging, funny, and deeply knowledgeable about the city. It felt like going around town with a celebrity, everywhere we went people would stop and say hello to him! The tour is several hours long and ours went a little over the allotted time and I didn’t even notice. The time flew by, that’s how engaging the whole experience is!

The tour guide Ozzie makes you fall in love with Munich - I will visit again. Apart from lots of history, you get tips about the city and living in Munich.

The BEST guide!

Jerry_L, Mar 2026
We just finished this tour with Ozzie and are amazed at how good he is as a tour guide. As background, we travel a fair bit and have seen our share of tour guides, our bar is set pretty high. Ozzie’s tour is much more than descriptions of Munich - it’s an immersion into the history, foundations, culture, etc of Munich & Germany. You will leave much wiser with his amazing knowledge shared in a factual manner. He’s very engaging, speaks excellent English, and seems to know everything. Enjoy the White over Blue and break away from the canned tours - book Ozzie and you will not regret it!

Ozzie Is a True Gem

Holly_B, Feb 2026
This was the best city tour I have ever taken, and Ozzie is the best city tour guide I've ever had. He's funny and shares facts through engaging stories, which makes everything easier to understand and remember. He's outstanding - I would recommend him to everyone.

Best Walking Tour in Europe!

Carter_C, Feb 2026
We had an absolutely fantastic time on our walking tour in Munich! From the very beginning, our guide was engaging, warm, and incredibly knowledgeable. It felt like there wasn’t a single question Oz couldn’t answer. The depth of knowledge he shared really brought the city to life in a way we never could have experienced on our own. What truly set this tour apart was the way the information was delivered. It never felt like a dry history lecture instead, it was filled with fascinating stories, humor, and little details that made everything memorable. We found ourselves completely absorbed the entire time. The guide’s passion for Munich was contagious, and it made us appreciate the city so much more. We also had so much fun along the way. There was a perfect balance of learning, exploring, and laughing. The time flew by, and by the end of the tour, we all agreed it far exceeded our expectations. It felt personalized, immersive, and thoughtfully put together.

Ghazala_S, Feb 2026
Oz is a treasure trove of knowledge and wisdom. This tour is full of history and interesting tidbits that hint at how Munich has been shaped as the city it is today. Oz is an excellent storyteller who manages to pace the details very well. The tour will help you take a deep dive into Munich’s culture and the backdrop of the old town paints a beautiful picture. One of my favorite walking tours. I highly recommend it.

A must do when visiting Munich!

A fantastic guide - very much worth doing when visiting Munich!

Charlie_C, Jan 2026
Ozzie is a fantastic guide! I learnt an incredible amount of information about Munich & Bavaria. Ozzie went through so much information and up to the present day in 2026 too. Comparing history to current affairs in Germany. I learnt so much from Ozzie, so thank you.

The Tour with Ozzie was...

Scott_N, Jan 2026
The Tour with Ozzie was exceptional, he gave a complete run down on everything from the History of Munich to the current political climate which gave a lot of context to all the sites that we visited. He also explained how to best visit parts of Munich and how you can save on visiting the other sites, as well as gave invaluable advice on how to interact with Munich. I learnt a whole lot in the tour and the time flew by. Ozzie definitely lived up to the Costco of knowledge he described himself as at the beginning of the tour. I highly recommend taking this tour before you do anything else as it will equip you with the knowledge you need to explore Munich and the surrounding areas. Thanks again Ozzie

It was an excellent tour...

Graham_H, Jan 2026
It was an excellent tour considering it was -2 degrees .We were taken to places of historical interest and he made it very interesting.

Doing the Munich walking...

Jack_K, Jan 2026
Doing the Munich walking tour with Ozzy was amazing!!! If you do one tour in Munich CHOOSE THIS ONE. Ozzy is basically a local celebrity and knows his way around town better than just about anybody. He is so kind and knowledgeable and funny. 10/10 recommend this tour

Wendy_T, Jan 2026
Is a convenient and easy way to get to Hallstatt without having to worry abt the transportation. The bus was very comfortable and the ride was very scenic.

An Introduction to Munich...

We took this tour on the day we arrived in Munich. A great overview of the city: the historical sites, the history, the Christmas markets, and the food. The overview helped us plan so we could explore on our own the next day. Thank you for a wonderful tour!

Great tour of Munich

Tammy_G, Dec 2025
This tour is top knotch! Very educational and fact filling! Oz is a wonderful teacher. He takes the time to get to know his people on tour and is very funny too.

Gain some Bavarian wisdom!

Julia_C, Dec 2025
Great tour! I feel like we gained so much information and knowledge about Munich and Bavaria. Ozzie was amazing and encouraged us to think critically about why things were the way they were. It is a lot of walking, so be prepared for that. On the day we went it was quite cold and most of the tour is outdoors, so make sure you’re dressed for the weather.

Fun and Informative!

Samantha_R, Dec 2025
Ozzy is a dynamic and engaging tour guide! Tons of information about Munich and Bavarian culture delivered in an interactive and fun way.

It’s ok

roslina225, Dec 2025
The tour was informative, but the explanations were quite lengthy at times. Given the cold and snowy weather, it would have been more comfortable if the group had not been required to stand outside for extended periods. Shorter explanations or better consideration of the weather conditions would have improved the overall experience.

Great tour guide. Wonderful time

Chrysanthi_K, Dec 2025
We had a wonderful time even though it was snowing and freezing outside. Our tour guide, Ozzy, did the best he could to show us all the important sites while providing us with all the important insights.

Ozzy is nice but he abandoned us!!!

Vivek_B, Dec 2025
Our tour ended abruptly and on a sour note. We stopped at a point where we were buying beers. Ozzy, our guide got us our beers and asked us to wait outside the shop. There were others in the line after me so I dedicded to quickly jump into the next shop and buy my 12 year old son a sausage sandwich. By the time we were out, barely 2 to 3 minutes after I got the beer, Ozzy and the group were nowhere to be seen. Repeated calls to the number on the tour booking receipt went unanswered. We waited at the same spot for ten minutes but he was no where to be seen. Did he not realise that three members from his group were missing? He had my number but did not call to ask where we were and where we could resume. Instead my family spent the next hour searching for him!! We made it to the last stop on the tour (as mentioned in the ticket) but he was no where to be found. Ozzy is knowledgeable and nice but he abandoned us.

A Must-Do Tour to Truly Understand Munich

Tano_B, Dec 2025
Ozzie is a seasoned guide with a fantastic personality who goes far beyond what you’d expect from a typical tour guide. He covers the main attractions while helping you truly get to know the city by exploring it from multiple angles - not just history. The depth of his knowledge is impressive, and the tour was engaging and fun from start to finish. The Bratwurstsemmel spot he takes you to during the tour was absolutely delicious - so much so that we went back for another meal later on.

City centre fun

Scott_B, Dec 2025
Ozzy is a local celebrity. He gave us a comprehensive introduction to Munich with heaps of insider tips to the city. Third Riche was covered sensitively and informatively. Ozzy was lots of fun to hang with for the day and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This one’s going straight to the pool room.

Walking Tour

Adrienne_G, Dec 2025
This was an interesting tour, but way too much narrative and less sites than we would have preferred. Ozzie was informative, but a lot of standing around while he talked, and it was cold out. Ozzie interacted with the kids in our group and was very pleasant. We ended up leaving tour 1/2 way through at the lunch stop. I would recommend if you have the time.

We have taken a lot of...

sylviaz168, Dec 2025
We have taken a lot of walking tours throughout our travels, and this is THE most informative tour we have ever been on! The information coverage is both in depth and comprehensive, giving you a full picture of not just Munich but also shared qualities among European cities. We left the tour feeling like we now know Munich and its distinctive culture, not just tidbits about the major tourist attractions. Thank you for a fantastic introduction to Munich! We would highly recommend this tour, you'll likely learn a lot even if you have taken tours in other European cities!

Interesting

Barbara_L, Dec 2025
Interesting facts and history tour. It was not stressful walking. Pace was calm with different stops along the way.

A wonderful day

Catherine_K, Dec 2025
What a fabulous walking tour so interesting and our guide was terrific!!!! Learned so much would take the same tour a second time.

12/10 recommend!

Natasha_H, Dec 2025
This tour was INCREDIBLE! Izzy was the best tour guide I have ever had across over 30 countries. He is a man of the people and Munich. He is so knowledgeable and passionate. There was so much detail about the history lifestyle current events navigating the city I could go on! If we are in Munich we will do this tour again!

Great tour that was...

Shon_S, Dec 2025
Great tour that was incredibly informative. I've lived in Germany for a little bit years and learned more about this country on the tour than I had on my own in 1.5 years.
