My brother and I loved the tour. Albert explained it very well and you could tell Albert that he enjoys telling about Munich's scary corners, and the conversation before the tour was very pleasant. (My brother and I did 2 tours that Albert led, so the rating is identical to the rating of the horror tour).

Was very nice.

Our guide had been waiting for us, our group was of a good size so that we could all stand very nicely near them and hear their interesting stories. US liked it. The time (18:00) was also not too late for us. We had a printed internet ticket that the guide did not have from us (she did not have us on her list), but this had no effect.

Entertaining and very informative, also for Munich residents

The enthusiasm for the topic of the leader of the leadership infected us all equally. In principle it was a private tour for us 4 friends, but the group size is generally limited to 6 people. You felt like you were in one of Dan Brown's books. We would never have thought that there are so many legendary relics in the old town that people in Munich have never noticed before. All in all super exciting to get to know Munich from a completely different perspective!
