10 City Tours in Nuremberg That You Shouldn't Miss

January 13, 2022 Kelli Reichel

With half a million people, Nuremberg is Bavaria's second largest city. While its history dates to the 11th century, Nuremberg is most often linked to the 20th century (specifically World War II). It first served as the site of many pre-war Nazi rallies, then was nearly leveled by Allied bombing, then was the site of the famous post-war Nuremberg Trials. The city has much to offer today's visitors, including the rebuilt Nuremberg Castle and the world-famous gingerbread at Hauptmarkt. Hansel and Gretel would have loved this place.

Martin Luther is NOT the same historical figure as MARTIN LUTHER KING Jr. Germany is not the same nation as the US. Martin Luther was the great GERMAN reformer of the 1500s. Martin Luther King Jr. was the great civil rights American reformer of the 1960s. I keep trying to help this organization, but they don't seem to worry about trivia like historical facts.

This was terrible tour. If you don’t speak German they will give you a headset for English. However they want your passport or picture ID for it. We would never give up our passport so we handed over our drivers license. We were not told this when we purchased the tickets otherwise we would have declined this tour. Now, the worst part of this tour is that the person who is speaking over their PA is shouting. You can not hear the English speaking person over your headset. It was so bad that we had to take our headsets off and plug our ears. We asked her to lower her voice and it got worse. I am hard of hearing and it was horrible. I have no idea as to what was said or what we saw because we could understand any of this. We have been on numerous tours like this and they are usually great and enjoyable. Not this one.

It was also very easy to got one of these headphones, we just left one personal card, i gave my driving license and when we got off the bus we gave back the headphones and i got back my card, so very easy.

We had a wonderful and relaxing time exploring Hamburg with our local host, Aline. She showed us the highlights of Hamburg and she had great recommendations about the local delicacies. We had three children all under 10 years old, and Aline was so accommodating and engaging. She made sure everyone had a good time. Definitely recommend Aline for young families. We were able to see a lot during our visit. I like the flexibility of a private tour, and we could adjust the itinerary based on our preferences.

If you are a history buff, you've come to the right place! Nuremberg, the second largest city of Bavaria, is so much more than Third Reich history, Nazi Trials and WWII memorabilia: from the undeclared capital of the Holy Roman Empire and the preferred residence of most German kings, to a magnet for famous artists like Albrecht Dürer and to a powerhouse in Germany’s industrial revolution in the 19th century, Nuremberg had them all. Even Martin Luther wrote about the city: ”shines throughout Germany like a sun among the moon and stars.” Join our walking tour to understand exactly why and how Nuremberg got this well deserved fame.

Inclusions: Local Guide who will be with your group only, Private guided Tour, Possible customizing on tour with your local guide on the spot
