About this activity

The tour is designed to make your acquaintance with Munich in a brief, but many-sided manner. We will pace along a 1,5 km route to discover together Munich’s old town, assembling piece by piece parts of the city’s past and modernity into a colourful puzzle of history, architecture, brewing traditions and gastronomic symbols, royal heritage and folk costume, bygone hotspots of Nazism and strongholds of religion, witty Bavarian humour and centuries-old legends.

You will find out how salt and wine helped the city emerge and why a child monk is its symbol. You will visit the world’s most famous beer hall to eyewitness the local beer drinking culture and discover the story of the Oktoberfest. You will learn how an ancient dance connected the 16th-century plague epidemic and the modern-times Coronavirus pandemic and how the bow tied on the apron of a dirndl can encourage to or discourage from flirting with a woman. All that while enjoying Munich’s sights and taking in its atmosphere.
