Hans

Munich

We immediately struck a bond with Gaby, she was an amazing tour guide of undoubtedly one of the best cities in Europe! We really enjoyed the history lessons and cultural experiences she was able to provide us during this 2 hour tour!

Kenneth

Munich

Markus was a fabulous host and guide. For three hours he walked us ( at our pace) around Munich in a sensible circle. We met in Maidenplatz, visited about 4 churches, some beautiful back alleys, the main shopping street, the river front ( with plenty of locals enjoying it on the hot day) and brought us back in time for a 5pm show of the Glockenspiel and a 505 train.

Munich

A wonderful walking tour with Naveen, highlighting Munich and the city. We covered a lot of interesting areas in over 3 hours, embracing the history of the city. Naveen was great about personalizing the tour for us and checked in regularly to make sure the amount of walking worked for us. It was great, we highly recommend Naveen.

Our guide Brigid was fantastic! She’s originally from Ireland but has been in Germany for over twenty years and has a wealth of knowledge about Munich and its history. We saw many of the must see spots, but also took in a few off the beaten path sights. Highly recommended.

Your FAQs

Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary.

Will I see famous landmarks or just hidden gems?

Both! Your host will take you to iconic sights if you want to see them, but they’ll also introduce you to places and stories most travelers miss.

What kind of stories and insights will my host share?

Each host has their own personal relationship with the city. You'll experience the city through their eyes—hearing stories about places they love, discovering hidden gems, and learning what makes their city special in a way that goes beyond a typical tour.

Can I mix different themes in one experience?

Yes! You can blend food, culture, history, neighborhoods, or even a bit of nightlife if time allows. Just share your interests in the questionnaire, and your host will build the day around them.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you will have the opportunity to chat with your host directly and agree on a plan for the day. However, there’s always room for spontaneity and local surprises!

Will we enter attractions, or just explore from the outside?

That’s up to you! Some experiences include visits inside attractions, while others focus on the city's culture and atmosphere, which can be hard to truly experience without someone who knows the city inside out.

Is this experience physically demanding?

We can tailor the experience to be as active or relaxed as you like—just let us know what suits you best!

Can I change the meeting place?

Yes, you will be in touch with your host before your experience, and you can agree on a different meeting point with them. Your host can meet you anywhere central that’s convenient.

Can my host meet me at my accommodation?

Hotel meet-ups are available upon request in central areas. If you're staying outside the city, your host will recommend the best meeting spot and guide you with directions.
