Matthew T, Dec 2025
This was an amazing tour. Very informative, engaging. Our tour guide Jamie was incredible, we were lucky to have a small group, he made small talk with us throughout the tour, while mixing in relevant information. He showed us photos of Hitler, of the Beer House and other photos. Would 100% recommend doing this tour, well worth the time and money

Excellent tour! Tons of history shared. Timing at each stop was perfect. Hein was an amazing guide! Lots of walking. We did this and the Dachau tour the same day, so by the end we were exhausted! But it was well worth it! Highly recommend if you enjoy history!
Response from Host, Sept 2025
Thank you for the wonderful review! I’m so glad you found the tour well-paced and full of history. Doing both tours in one day is definitely worth it. I’ll be sure to share your kind words with Hein.
