Nazi documentation Center & rally grounds - Wonderful museum that explores Nurnberg's role in the Nazi movement. The rally grounds are huge and the courthouse where they held the trials of the nazi war criminals was chilling.

Very informative and interesting - Our tour started in front of the Nuremberg train station. Our guide, Dimitri, spoke English very well. Once all were assembled, it was off on our 4 hour walking tour. That may seem like a long time but it went by very quickly. He led us through the Old Town section of Nuremberg, adding his own personal experiences as well as the history of the town. Visited the Castle to get a fantastic view of the area. Lots of history. Lunchtime saw us wandering around the town square for bite to eat at one of the many vendors assembled today. Delicious bratwurst and sweet treats abound! Afterwards it was off to the Nazi Rally grounds. We took a public bus to get there as it’s too far to walk. Dimitri told us about the history of the area and what plans the Nazi’s had for the area. After that portion of the tour,it was back to the starting area via trolley car. Very well presented. Wished we had more time to go back to some of the sites for a more in-depth look at things but we were only here for 2 nights. You need several days to fully explore the town. As far as this tour, it was well worth it. Wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for the uphill climb to the castle. Dimitri was a very good tour guide.

Great way to see Nuremberg and learn about its history. - Definitely worth doing. Tour guide was very interesting and covers a lot in the time. There’s a lot of walking but it’s at a slow pace.

Authentic tour packed with lots of history! - Achim was an entertaining and extremely knowledgeable tour guide. He is passionate about his hometown and it made the tour that much more meaningful. It is a well paced and very informative day, so there is a lot of walking and it is indeed a full day experience, so be prepared! We ended 30-45 minutes later than expected but I don’t think that happens every tour.

Great tour - Jason was our guide and spoke excellent English. The tour of Old Nuremberg was so interesting.Jason knew his history and was very informative.
The nazi rally grounds were a bit disappointing.
Not a lot to see, but Jason was very good at making the grounds come alive.
Only thing was Jason walked a bit fast for some of the tour members
