About Tour Guide Philipp S.
Hello, I'm Philipp,
A native of Munich with a lifelong connection to this incredible city. As a passionate tour guide and content creator, I specialize in bringing Munich's unique stories and lesser-known gems to life.
Growing up here, I’ve cultivated not only an insider’s knowledge of the city’s famous landmarks but also the hidden corners that most visitors miss. Munich’s history spans from its medieval foundations to its complex role in the rise of National Socialism, and I strive to present these chapters with the depth and context they deserve.
The city is also a culinary treasure trove, from hearty Bavarian classics to vibrant street food markets that showcase local flavors. And with a rich calendar of seasonal events, like the world-famous Oktoberfest and magical Christmas markets, there’s always something to celebrate.
Beyond the main attractions, I enjoy introducing visitors to lesser-known treasures like the Auer Dult, a traditional fair, and Starkbierfest, Munich's “strong beer” festival rooted in Bavarian monastic tradition. Through my videos and tours, I provide a local’s perspective that’s rich with personal anecdotes and connections to the city’s past and present. Whether you’re looking for iconic sights, authentic eats, or a deep dive into Munich’s vibrant, authentic spots, I’m here to show you a side of Munich that you’ll never forget.

Munich: The path of Hitler's Beer Hall Putsch
Hitler called Munich the capital of the movement, founding the NSDAP here. On November 9, 1923, he attempted a coup—the Beer Hall Putsch—which failed. After seizing power, the Nazis commemorated it annually. The tour begins at the Hilton Hotel Munich City, where the Bürgerbräukeller once stood. It then moves past Sterneckerbräu, through Marienplatz, to Odeonsplatz, where the coup ended, and finishes at Königsplatz, a key Nazi site.

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!
