Our tour with Alun was absolutely incredible! He is very knowledgeable, engaging, passionate about history, as well as friendly and engaging. We were fortunate to have a private tour, which made the experience even more special. Alun expertly guided us through Munich’s Nazi history, weaving together facts, stories, and insights that truly brought the past to life. Alun’s thoughtful explanations added so much value to the tour and made the experience both educational and deeply moving. Both my dad and I love history, and this tour was the highlight of our trip. If you’re visiting Munich, this tour is an absolute must. Thank you, Alun, for an unforgettable experience!

This was my first walking tour and it was one of the most fantastic experiences during Europe travel! My guide was Thomas. :) Because it was off-season, the tour was conducted with only two people. (Me and Thomas) I was a little nervous worried if the guide felt uncomfortable. But that was a groundless worry. He was so gentle and nice and explained the history of Munich easily. He tried his best to show me unique, proud, even a bit embrassing cultures and history. By this walking tour, I could understand Munich much deeper and enjoyed Marienplatz and English garden than when I traveled alone. This walking tour is one of my best choices! 😊

Noel gave us an amazing tour. Despite it being a cold and rainy day in January, we were completely enthralled by his stories for over two hours. He answered all of our questions and told us tons of interesting and funny things about Munich. He was extremely helpful and thoughtful.

A wonderful concert, of superlative quality, in an unbeatable setting. Very exciting.

good musicians, the place is not very comfortable but the result is worth it.
