Great introduction to Nuremberg Old Town.

Andreas was an excellent guide given that Nuremberg is his home and he has done a lot of research on the sights. Hugely enjoyed our walking tour and his interesting stories of the city and its history and, of course, the Christmas Market at the HauptMarkt.
