Combine a day of enjoying Munich's finest food & beer with the rich history of Munich. We start the day with a traditional Weisswurst Frühstück and then take a stroll through the old town of Munich with a special focus on WWII history. We will see the famous Hofbräuhaus, and other great beer halls or beer gardens of Munich. As we visit the most famous sites of the city, City Hall, Glockenspiel, Viktualienmarkt, Frauenkirche, etc. we make plenty of rest stops to soak in the culture!

Your hotel
I will meet you in the looby of your downtown hotel, or we can arrange to meet at the main square, Marienplatz
We arrive at Munich's main square. Framed by the neo-gothic new town hall and the medival old town hall, there is plenty to see and I'll explain the rcih histroy of Munich
We'll sit down for a traditional "second breakfast" at one of Munich's most famous beer halls. It's tradition to have two white sausages (veal/pork, boiled), with a special sweet mustard, a fresh pretzel and a Weissbier. To understand Bavaria, it's necessary to understand is most important beverage, beer!
This square is home to the famous Hofbräuhaus. We'll walk through this histroical beer palace and I'll related the rich histroy to you. Many famous people have enjoyed a beer here and I'll show you where Adolph Hilter gave his first major speech.
Our open-air market is open every day except Sundays and Holidays. I'll walk you through the many food stands and you can sample some of the traditonal bavarian foods.
Walking past the National Theater and in front of the Royal Residenz, I'll relate many anecdotes about Ludwig I and tell you about the infamous Lola Montez
This square marks the northen entrance to Munich's old town and is the scene of Hilters 1923 Beer Hall Putsch
Munich's cathedral dates to 1488 and we'll stop in to see the Devil's footprint
Simply the most "over-the-top" exmaple of Bavarian Rococo architecture , you'll also learn about the Asam brothers and wha they dedicated this tiny church to St. Nepomuk.
If you're OK with a little walk, we'll stroll though the old "brown quarter" of the city where many National Socialist party sites are to be found, as well as the start of Munich's museum district.
We'll see just a bit of Muncih's massive 940 acre municipal park, but we'll visit the Eisbach, where the city surfers ride a perpetual wave. Then, we'll stroll past the FKK areas on our way to the Chinese Tower Beer garden, where 6,000 people can find a seat and enjoy a beer!
Our ending time is a bit flexible and so is our end point. I can get you back to your hotel, back to Marienplatz, or maybe we'll finish with another beer garden visit.

No one is more passionate about Bavaria. My love of the Bavarian culture and history has made me an authority on all things Bavarian! I like to relate Munich's rich history through stories and anecdotes.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts in German Language & History, am a Diplom Bier Sommelier and am a silent partner of a Michigan microbrewery, specializing in Bavarian beer & food.
Having lived in the Bavarian Capital of Munich for over 12 years, I am highly integrated into the culture and enjoy being a part of many Bavarian Stammtisch groups - inluding being the only non-native member of the Aventinus Buam. With this insight, I will help you unlock that magic that is Bavaria!
