Great experience for kids - We booked the night watchman tour for children as part of a children's birthday party. The night watchman mastered this perfectly with the group of 11 children. Not only did he show an angel patience, he also managed to attract the attention of the kids with exciting stories. We were very pleased.

Perfect historical tour with less crowds! - Great tour! Perfect itinerary, the time flew by quickly. Lots of information giving a glimpse into what life was like when Munich started to become a city. Highly recommend! Also, navigating was much easier as the Old Town is much less crowded at night.

Exciting historical narrative about Munich - Nice tour. I meant that I already know EVERYTHING about Munich. Yesterday we learned many, new things. More exciting anecdotes might have made it even more exciting.

Failure without notice, not ok.. - Unfortunately, the tour failed without telling people. We've all waited forever. Then I was called in the evening, offered an alternative, later that evening. Even then, no one showed up! It makes you feel very foolish!
