Best walking tour so far

Hey Travelers/Backpackers,

I have always booked walking tours for every new city I've visited and let me tell you, Nick is by far one of the funniest and very informative tour guide I've met.

My friends and I booked for a 3 hour English tour in Munich, starting point at Marienplatz 3. The group size was about 8-10, which was the not too big and not too small and Nick was loud and clear. The tour said it would take about 3 hours, but ours extended to about 4 hours, along with a 15 mins ice cream/coffee break. We visited St Peters church, the vegetable/fruit market, beer garden near the center, Juliet Statue from Italy, Ledehosen shop and how to traditionally wear them and what it symbolizes, the kings risedenz, the most expensive shopping district and so on!

Nick works as a state guide and is authorized as well. He also conducts day tours to Dacau concentration camp (which we didn't do since we didn't have the time), but I'm sure would've been equally amazing. Hes extremely friendly and encourages questions and is considerate.

A big thumps up from me if you plan a trip to Munich! Thanks!

Best,
Rianna Dsilva

A 5 star rating only because I can't give it 10! One of the best tours I've ever been on and probably the most well informed guide (Marcin Wright) I've encountered.

I can't praise Marcin enough, more than happy to ask questions, he was affable and extremely knowledgable.

For 6 hours he presented a tour that was compassionate, balanced, yet did not hide any of the 'difficult' and ugly points in the history of which there were many.

By the end everyone was visible moved, and we all walked away knowing we had just been through a life changing experience .

For our Munich resident friend, who was with us, this was the 3rd time in Dachau... But he said this had the greatest impact and has already said that next time we come over we have to do another tour with Marcin Wright. (I'm guessing we have to come back!)

It was amazing ... Am still digesting it several days late.

Dachau Memorial Site Tour from Munich

Better than Sandemans!

I am a student living in Munich and I took a visiting friend to do this tour. It was my second tour here in Munich (first was with Sandemans). The Sandemans tour was also good, however I really enjoyed this tour! It was highly informative, funny and definitely worth it. There were many additional facts that the Sandemans tour didn't cover, which really made the city come alive.

The guide had pictures of what Munich used to look like which was fascinating to see how it had changed. This was different to the Sandemans tour too.

The only downside was that it was extremely busy (although, the Oktoberfest is currently on and he mentioned its not always this busy). Also, it would be nice to have a break in between as the tour was around 3.5 hours with no stop.

Tour full of fun!

When you book a free tour, you generally get yourself prepared for the worst to avoid any disappointment, but so far this was my BEST TOUR EVER. Marcin while giving us the necesary historical background to be able to appreciate the city (showing us also photos about it before the bombing, the historical figures he was talking about etc.), did not forget about mentioning little fun facts about the sights we were visiting, sharing his experiences as a local and teach us how to spot a "Schickimicki".
Result: 3 hours passed without notice.
This tour is a great combination of added knowledge & sense of humour.

I was apprehensive to go at first because of the nature of the tour but I am really glad I went. My tour guide was Marcin again. He was very respectful and once again experienced in his knowledge, having been to and researched the many other concentration camps in Europe. Furthermore, he highlights the important details of the museum that you would otherwise miss if you were on your own. I would definitely recommend going in a tour group although going by yourself allows you the flexibility of time to walk through every exhibit and soak in the environment.

Quite nice experience

I used to be a tour guide myself for nine years, I've visited a lot of places in various parts of the continent and I can honestly say that it isn't every day when you meet a guide like Marcin.
Our 3,5-hour tour completely met our expectations as we looked for something interesting and not 'overloaded' with information. History as well as everyday life where shown from various sides, with a good sense of humour and in a very nice English that was not too complicated for non-native speakers.
Worth visiting. Worth recommending.
Our applauses.

Discover Munich Introductory Tour

We enjoyed the tour and the guide Joyel. I would recommend it storngly at the beginning of the stay. We did take a "Third Reich and Hitler tour" the day before so it was nice to get the more cosy version as a tourist as well. Lots of nice stories, tips for shops and restaurants and sightseeing for the rest of our stay. We did not have the time for Scloss Neuschwanstein, which we would have loved to take. So we have to come back at another occasion.

Worthy of a tip equal to having paid fee!

Seriously, don't be stingy! We had Marcin as our guide and It was an excellent tour with much cultural, historical, and humorous information. You will not be disappointed. Book it, have a great time, and be generous. (PS...if you book it and change your mind, please have the decency to officially cancel so it frees up space for others and the group doesn't have to wonder if you're coming. It's free, but the rules of etiquette still apply.)

Have done this tour twice--great both times!

I took this tour when I first moved to Munich to get a feel for the city. Five months later, I booked this tour for my family when they came to visit. Both times I had Adam as a tour guide. He is knowledgeable, interesting, and obviously excited to share the cool history and trivia about Munich. Made for a wonderful experience both as a new resident and as a kick-off for the things around town I wanted to show to my family.

Great day trip!

This was a great day trip and we were able to see the highlights of Salzburg. As our time was limited, it was nice to leave the navigation to someone else and experience the city without the hassles of planning it all and navigating by ourselves. That saved us time and allowed us to appreciate the city. I would recommend this trip to others who want a quick day trip to see the city.

Fabulous!!!

Just that word does not do this tour justice. Our guide was Jova. Not only was he an amazing story teller, but he was patient (when my group forgot a meeting time) and so much fun. I really recommend this tour!
Although go pee before you get to the tour platform, then there are plenty of restrooms after the 2 hour bus ride to get to the town where the castle is!

Excellent tour led by Adam our tour guide. He is super knowledgeable and friendly I learned lots of interesting new facts about the city I once called home. This tour is really worth while and I absolutely recommend you secure your place now - even if you are only visiting for a day or two. I also can’t believe this tour is free, get involved! You won’t regret it.

Great experience! Highly recommend to those visiting Munich

I have been to Munich for several weeks already, when I joined free walking tour with like-a-lokal guide, and this walk opened to me another view on same ancient streets.

Marcin (the name of the guide) has a solid knowledge of Munich history as well as a good sense of humour. That is why the tour was not only interesting but also much fun.

The tour was super nice nd informative

We took the free walking tour in Munich with Adam who was our tour guide. It was almost a three hour long tour which was very informative and fun. He mixed history, modern times and recommendations for where to eat and drink. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Munich for a short period of time and wants to get the essential infromation.

Awesome tour

Our guide is really knowledgeable about the city, talks well and is an all-around nice guy. He told us some nice stories that we wouldn't be able to get otherwise and we had a nice surprise guest participation of an elderly couple who confirmed a story about the WW2 era (they were just passing by and stopped to talk to the group).

Highly recommended.

He was great!

This guy knows his stuff. He had a great sense of humor and did an awesome job keeping everyone interested and engaged in the tour! He clearly had a lot of experience and was very knowledgable about the history and traditions of Munich. The tour ended up running over by about 30 mins, which was a little long, but it was definitely worth it!

A nice walk in the old town

We went through all the major highlights in the old town, hearing really interesting stories about the background of these places and how beer contribute in history of Munich. In particular I found very interesting the stories about Munich and the uprising of Nazis.
All in all a very good walking tour.
