Additional Information

Immerse yourself in the city’s charm by viewing it from the perspective of a local enthusiast. Without a predetermined schedule, you can tailor the tour or entrust the planning to the local for a profound introduction to the city. Make your travel as much about the people you encounter as the locations you visit. By choosing our pedestrian tours, you’ll bypass the standard history tours and delve into the city from a local’s viewpoint. Partake in a tour that will reinvent your travel mindset to equally prioritize the companionship you form as well as the sites you explore. Our local guides or ‘Lokafyers’ are ecstatic about their city and are always eager to disseminate their wisdom and point of view. Given that Lokafyers are not professional guides and only undertake tours intermittently, they offer an authentic and personal experience akin to a friend guiding you through their city. By the closure of your tour, you’ll be adept at traversing the city and feel confident that you possess all the necessary details to optimize your visit.

Good short tour, nice first event in town - No need to buy tickets ahead of time. It’s easy to buy them at the ticket stand right by the tram. It was a good first excursion in the city, helped us decide what else we wanted to see. Good value.

Walking tour Nuremberg in Spanish - Our guide, Esteban, did a great and excellent job. Very well known in the city and showed us great places and told us a lot of history. Send us several pictures and also recommended books and movies. We had a great time with him. We booked the tour for two hours and ended up doing six hours. Great experience and we highly recommend Esteban.

Enjoying Nuremberg with René! - René gave us a great tour of the Castle and old Town in Nuremberg. He has a great personality for this job and was conscious of my need to go slow at times. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks René!

Unbelievable Nuremberg Experience - What an unbelievable experience we had in Nuremberg with our tour. Rene S. was a fantastic tour guide. His knowledge of the city was second to none. We booked him for five hours. We enjoyed conversation, food, drink and his hospitality.

Jason, The Best Nuremberg Tour Guide - Did a day trip to Nuremberg from Munich. I was fortunate to have been connected with Jason. The tour he gave me was absolutely wonderful. It was just me and him the whole tour, so it was very curated tour to say the least. In the beginning he asked me if there was anything I wanted to see with our 4 hour tour time, but I asked him if he could just to show me whatever he thought was best, and boy, did he deliver. He took me to some amazing sight seeing areas, provided great history lessons, and gave me future ideas for when the best time of the year to visit the area the next time I come down was. He gives you a tour of Nuremberg Castle and the surrounding area from the perspective of a German but considering he's American it made communicating with him about questions that I had super easier for me. We connected on a personal level immediately upon meeting and being a solo traveler and not being able to speak fluent German in the least, was incredibly refreshing. It really put me at ease during our tour. If you're looking for the best tour guide on Viator and you're in the Nuremberg area, Jason is your man!

0/10 choose another tour. - This review excludes the personality of the tour guide who was very nice. The tour guide was not a local and had only lived in the city for a year. First, it was hard to understand her as English nor German was her first language. Second, she spoke maybe 50 words during 3 hours, those words being there is a church, there is a shop. She knew nothing of anything. I learned 0 history. We aimlessly walked around for 3 hours. I flew half way across the world to learn about Nuremberg and learned not one thing. I think I even taught her things. I learned more during my 5 minute red train ride around the city than during this tour. I would never book this tour again.

Do not book with is company - I would give a Zero but option not given. Do not book this tour or any other with this company! They canceled our tour 1 hour before it was due to begin and are denying our refund after confirming that they would refund in full due to their error and inability to show. Disappointed in Viator for not completing the refund as well
