Josh was a great, passionate guide. He really made you feel the emotions and events that occurred 75 years ago. I also loved the fact he managed to make analogies to current day events and implicitely confronted us with underlying issues of current day society by providing food for thought, without making statements or applying subjectivity. Great guide, extremely interesting tour and an experience that will stick with us for all time!

Full description

Take a 2,5 - 3-hour walking tour of Munich to discover one of the darkest moments in the city’s history, learning of the birth of Nazism, the rise of Hitler, and the infamous Third Reich.
In 1919, Germany was emerging from World War I as a defeated and humiliated nation, with Munich in the grips of hyperinflation and Bavaria dominated by revolution and assassination. Out of this fertile soil of chaos rose the Nazi movement, and one of history’s most powerful dictators, Adolf Hitler.
Follow the inception of Nazism, from the first mass meeting at the Hofbräuhaus to the failed attempt to seize power at the Feldherrnhalle. You will go to the site of party rallies at Königsplatz, and stop in the Hofgarten to talk about The White Rose Resistance Movement.
The tour covers all the important facts and sites that played a role in the origin of this dark chapter, which ended with the beautiful city of Munich in ruins and the second world war cutting deep wounds across Deutschland.

The guide provided lots of information and even more if you asked questions. I learnt a lot of unexpected facts and saw places I didn't know were a part of the rise of Hitler. The guide spoke great English even though he was concerned his English wasn't perfect.
