At the beginning it was a bit difficult for me, as there was so much going on at Marienplatz. We really enjoyed the tour and got a lot of interesting information. I would book this tour again.
I booked a night watchman group tour. Our night watchman Franz was on time at the agreed meeting point and took us back in time. Amazing how much you didn’t know about medieval Munich as a “local”. Our tour lasted two hours and was never boring due to the detailed explanations of our night watchman Franz. On the contrary, in a humorous and funny way, we learned stories, anecdotes and history. It's amazing how much background our nightwatchman had. Despite a very cold night we were all delighted. A great experience, highly recommended. Thank you, Geli and the whole group
The tour was very interesting and we learned a lot about our beautiful city! Franz told exciting stories with a lot of humor and led us - despite the cold - through the old town! It was a lot of fun, thank you so much!
Recommended - there were four of us and found it great !!! Very nice, informative and easy to understand 👍👍👍
Here you can learn a lot of totally interesting things about medieval Munich. About the night watchman profession, dukes, nobles, executioners and torturers. The whole thing coupled with a lot of wit, as well as legends and also creepy Stories. It was a great 2 hours with a "super" night watchman. My absolute recommendation.
The tour was great, I laughed a lot, learned a lot of new things and was made aware of a lot of things that I had never noticed before, although I have been studying in Munich for almost a year and have often been in the area around Marienplatz. In the end I was completely frozen (I would recommend in winter to really wear anything that goes, I had a very warm winter coat on, I should have put a fleece under it), but I didn't regret anything.
CLASS Organization. Very good spots and stories. Vivid and funny told. It was really fun. Anytime again.
Just great! An unforgettable experience! We booked the tour at 9 p.m. Class Told and again and again har the night watchman made a joke.
Interesting guided tour with a sympathetic night watchman who could give all kinds of stories and historical from the Middle Ages to the best.
So interesting and informative it was such a great experience and wonderful strolling thru the old city in the late evening
