Meeting Point

Your hotel

Your Hotel

I will meet you in the lobby of your downtown hotel, or we can arrange to meet at the main square, Marienplatz

Marienplatz

We arrive at Munich's main square. Framed by the neo-gothic new town hall and the medieval old town hall, there is plenty to see and I'll explain the rich histroy of Munich

Schneider Brauhaus

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!

Platzl

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.

Viktualienmarkt

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.

Residenz

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

Odeonsplatz

This square marks the northen entrance to Munich's old town and is the scene of Hilters 1923 Beer Hall Putsch

Frauenkirche

Munich's cathedral dates to 1488 and we'll stop in to see the Devil's footprint

Asamkirche

Simply the most "over-the-top" example of Bavarian Rococo architecture , you'll also learn about the Asam brothers and wha they dedicated this tiny church to St. Nepomuk.

Königsplatz

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.

Englisher Garten

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!

Tour Ends

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.
