Neuschwanstein Castle is wrapped in mystery and beauty. The former dream of the Wittlesbach king, Ludwig II, the castle is not only gorgeous but the perfect place to explore the mystery of Ludwig's untimely demise and begin to learn the Bavarian Beer Culture. After a 'skip the line' entrance into Neuschwanstein castle the your guide will bring you to the village of Murnau where you will visit the Griesbräu brewery for your tour of the brewery given by the brewmeister himself. An obscene amount of sample beers and beer schnapps await along with your very own "Brewery Certificate." Once the brewery tour is concluded we make our way to the Murnau train station for a short train ride back into the city of Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

Inclusions: Professional guide, Hotel pickup, Guaranteed to skip the long lines, Private tour, Alcoholic Beverages, Dinner, Bottled water, Our "Coronavirus Safety Standard of Travel" on all vehicles and guides

Exclusions: Food and drinks, unless specified, Lunch, Gratuities, Hotel drop-off

The perfect tour for foodies and beer lovers! Believe it or not, Munich's beer culture has evolved since the 1500s, and so our Beer and Street Food Tour is for people who want to also experience the modern side of Munich. Beginning in the heart of Munich’s Marienplatz, we take a short walk to our first stop. Here we will sample one of Munich’s 'younger' beers (500ml) from the 19th century. Take in the cozy ambience of a typical Bavarian Wirtshaus, and savour some traditional local pub fare too. We continue through the streets of the old city to the bustling Platzl. Let us show you how the locals really embrace the night - drinking a bottled-beer and eating street food! No paper-bag necessary - drinking in public is a right in Germany! We take a quick stop to gawk at the world-famous Hofbrauhaus and then move onto dessert. Grab an ice cream cone to-go from the shop of a local Michelin-star chef as we continue our night tour of the city to our final beer destination.

Inclusions: 3x 500ml beer, Snacks, Dinner

Exclusions: Tips/Gratuities

Munich is famous for Oktoberfest. Before this city became so famous, there was a lot of history to be told. Beer halls, beer gardens, and cellars tell different chapters from or history.

I bring you to the different houses and tell you the history behind them. Secrets of the second world war, love affairs, and politics. Everything combined in four hours of fun. My groups are small, till 15 people and we don't run through the city, but enjoy it.

We did an excellent tour with our guide Paul. We are glad that we did it. He is an excellent knowledgeable guide, very caring and a lovely person. We visited St. Peter's Church, Platzl an der Orlandostrasse, Bayerische Staatsoper, U-Bahn to Odeonsplatz etc with him. He was very nice to us during our entire visit, patience as a guide should be, explaining history of each place along with some fun. If we ever visit Munich again, we shall hire Paul. Highly recommended.
