My reviews

Elettra was fabulous! She felt like an old friend from the start and I really appreciated how she curated the walking tour to my style, pace and interests. She was warm and professional and I was so impressed with her knowledge of the history and architecture around Munich. I had just arrived in Munich that morning so this was a great way to get introduced to the city and know exactly what sites and restaurants I want to go back and explore more while I am here. Thank you so much Elettra!

It was a great historical and cultural tour of Munich. Elettra was a truly wonderful guide - so friendly and knowledgeable. She took time explaining each part of the city - the history and its buildings, leaving us with a good sense of our surroundings and where to go on our own. Overall, it was a couple of very worthwhile hours and I highly recommend it upon arrival!

Our guide, Elettra, knows her history, her culture, gardens, and pretty much anything you want to know about Munich. We had a three hour private tour. In our request, I had one--make us fall in love with Munich. Mission accomplished! She has a marvelous personality! We are celebrating our anniversary and she gave us a sweet little gift. So thoughtful!
