Highly recommend!”

“This walking tour with Noel was really quite amazing! Noel is knowledgeable, personable, and tailored the experience to me since I ended up being the only one on the tour. Despite being the only one, he spent time patiently answering my questions, showing me all the places listed, and gave me an incredible look into local culture and history. The tour is thorough and enjoyable. The tour operator allowed me a last minute time change, which I appreciated a lot. Definitely 5 stars!! Munich’s old town and English garden are well worth a visit, and this tour is a great introduction to the city!”

“Okay, so real talk — we did a ton of tours on our trip (like, more than anyone should do in 2 and a half weeks), but Dani? Dani is in a league of her own. Girl’s got that storyteller magic — like, she doesn’t just tell you facts, she paints the scene, cracks you up, and makes you fall totally in love with her city. Even my 14-year-old — who was so over walking tours — admitted afterwards that this was the best decision we made. And let me tell you, getting a teenager to admit anything? That’s legendary.”

“Yllättävän hyvä kierros 25€ hintaan. Oppaamme oli ihastuttava norjalainen lady, joka muutamissa kohdissa, kertoessaan historiasta herkistyi itsekin. Ehdottomasti kannatti ottaa vähemmän kävelyn päiväksi tämä, jaksoi sitten taas seuraavana päivänä kävellä muita kohteita ja retkiä. Kaupungintalo oli kaunis ja yllättävä neogoottilainen helmi.”
