Book and enjoy. Informative, fun and impressive. Seen a nice part of Munich and learned a lot of stories that made me smile. Thank you BaluBo!
Super interesting and informative city tour that felt way too short but really stuck with me. I loved the little anecdotes about the city's history that you don't really get in standard tours. Our guide really lived his role with humor, enthusiasm, and dedication. Would wholeheartedly recommend. Thanks!
What a blast of an experience! Peter was our guide, and I could not imagine a better one! Everything in him was ultra authentic (we had a German speaking tour) clothing and the torch is a given, booking this tour, but the voice, the Bavarian slang from time to time for an emphasis. I had an amazing time! Dankeschön!
SIMPLY SUPER!! Anyone who enjoys learning facts and historical background as well as legends and curiosities about Munich can confidently entrust themselves to the night watchman! Even as a native of Munich, you learn a lot - during the entertaining and amusing performance, you find yourself in many a familiar yet unfamiliar place - all seasoned with hearty Bavarian humor! THANK YOU Peter Bosch for the great experience! :-))
Interesting insight into the city's history - entertaining and fun, even for 12-year-old teenagers
At the beginning it was a bit difficult for me, as there was so much going on at Marienplatz. We really enjoyed the tour and got a lot of interesting information. I would book this tour again.
I booked a night watchman group tour. Our night watchman Franz was on time at the agreed meeting point and took us back in time. Amazing how much you didn’t know about medieval Munich as a “local”. Our tour lasted two hours and was never boring due to the detailed explanations of our night watchman Franz. On the contrary, in a humorous and funny way, we learned stories, anecdotes and history. It's amazing how much background our nightwatchman had. Despite a very cold night we were all delighted. A great experience, highly recommended. Thank you, Geli and the whole group
The tour was very interesting and we learned a lot about our beautiful city! Franz told exciting stories with a lot of humor and led us - despite the cold - through the old town! It was a lot of fun, thank you so much!
Recommended - there were four of us and found it great !!! Very nice, informative and easy to understand 👍👍👍
Here you can learn a lot of totally interesting things about medieval Munich. About the night watchman profession, dukes, nobles, executioners and torturers. The whole thing coupled with a lot of wit, as well as legends and also creepy Stories. It was a great 2 hours with a "super" night watchman. My absolute recommendation.
The tour was great, I laughed a lot, learned a lot of new things and was made aware of a lot of things that I had never noticed before, although I have been studying in Munich for almost a year and have often been in the area around Marienplatz. In the end I was completely frozen (I would recommend in winter to really wear anything that goes, I had a very warm winter coat on, I should have put a fleece under it), but I didn't regret anything.
Die Führung war sehr informativ, locker ind witzig. Sehr empfehlenswert, kann jedem ans Herz legen diese Führung zu buchen. Gerne wieder! Gehört definitiv zu einem Münchenbesuch :)
CLASS Organization. Very good spots and stories. Vivid and funny told. It was really fun. Anytime again.
Just great! An unforgettable experience! We booked the tour at 9 p.m. Class Told and again and again har the night watchman made a joke.
trotz schlechten Wetters und Kälte auch im Winter ein tolles Erlebnis, wirklich sehr zu empfehlen!!!
Der Nachtwächter Franz führte überaus spannend, kurzweilig und gespickt mit lustigen Anekdoten durchs nächtliche München. Man erfährt viele interessante Dinge. Sehr zu empfehlen!
Interesting guided tour with a sympathetic night watchman who could give all kinds of stories and historical from the Middle Ages to the best.
Tolle kurzweilige Tour mit spannenden und lustigen Geschichten. Der Tourguide hatte eine sehr humorvolle Erzählweise, man hat gar nicht gemerkt dass man tatsächlich 2 Stunden unterwegs war. Absolute Empfehlung! :)
Die Führung war ein sehr schönes Erlebnis! Sehr informativ mit Witz und charm erzählt. Ich kann diese Führung nur weiterempfehlen.
Sehr coole Geschichten, lebendig erzählt und voller Witz! Ich habe Stellen um den Marienplatz gesehen, die mir noch nie aufgefallen sind, und die Hintergründe dazu sind echt spannend!!
The Nightwatchman had interesting, funny and also less funny stories to tell. We found the tour informative. Great time as evening was less hot and less busy on the squares/streets.
I recently had the pleasure of taking part in a medieval torchlight tour of Munich and it was an experience I will never forget! Led by an impressively authentic night watchman, this tour offered a fascinating journey into the city's past. Our night watchman was not only a walking encyclopedia of medieval Munich, but also a gifted storyteller. With his historical garb and burning torch in hand, he took us back in time. His deep knowledge and passion for Munich's history brought every stop on the tour to life. You could practically hear the horses' hooves on the cobblestones and see the hustle and bustle of the medieval market in front of you. What was particularly impressive was the way the night watchman combined historical facts with exciting anecdotes and legends. He knew exactly how to captivate the group, whether through scary stories about the plague or fascinating accounts of the lives of commoners and nobles. His humor and charismatic personality made the tour not only informative but also extremely entertaining. The atmosphere created by the flickering torches and the nighttime backdrop of Munich was simply magical. The narrow streets and historic buildings looked even more impressive in the torchlight and it was easy to imagine what life must have been like here many centuries ago. I highly recommend this medieval torchlight tour. It is a must for any history lover and a wonderful way to see Munich from a completely new perspective. A big thank you to our amazing night watchman who made this tour an unforgettable experience!
It was a super informative night watchman's walk. Our night watchman had a very nice manner, you could listen to him very well. He told us a lot of details about the individual stops in Munich, it was very exciting 🤩 He was also able to calmly and confidently deal with the occasional disturbance from drunk football fans. I would definitely recommend it to everyone 😊
Eine schöne Stadtführung mit vielen kleinen Geschichten. Haben viel gelernt auch wenn wir aus München kommen
Spannende Geschichten über die Vergangenheit und lehrreiche Erkenntnisse sowie Erzählungen. Einfach ein schönes Erlebnis
Night watchman Peter led us through the heart of Munich with a lot of humor and great knowledge. Wonderful, entertaining hours with exciting, interesting stories. Highly recommended. Thank you very much!
Very informative, entertaining, well presented. Highly recommended, authentic in style and language, lots of jokes
The tour was wonderful. Interesting down to the last detail. Even if you come from the Munich area like we did, the tour is great. You learn a lot of new things. Peter does his job with a lot of passion. He deserves 5 stars.
Great!! Definitely recommend it and tell others 🙂 A great idea for an evening activity. Very friendly night watchman and attracts attention with his clothing and torch. His stories are impressive. Definitely take part!
Yesterday we went on a great tour through medieval Munich at night. Our very friendly night watchman has a huge, well-founded wealth of knowledge. The tour was super exciting and, even though I have been living in Munich for a while now, I was able to learn a lot of interesting facts. Our night watchman and the tour itself are definitely highly recommended! Very authentic and entertaining! PS: The costume is also really impressive ;-)
Peter der die Führung gemacht hatte, war super😃 konnte zu allen fragen eine Geschichte erzählen. Witzig und kompetent. Würden wir immer wieder machen.
As a group, we had a great tour in the evening. The general information about the job of night watchman and other professional groups, the presentation - also visually - was really successful and authentic. We learned a lot and were grateful for the great two hours in and around the historic center of Munich. This tour is really recommended.
Very humorous guided tour of medieval Munich. The guide was extremely patient, even with strenuous alcoholic people who repeatedly disturbed the group from the outside (this was always quickly prevented and did not devalue the overall experience). Hats off to him. Recommended for all history lovers!
It was a great guided tour at a fantastic time ;-) as in the evening the city is of course not so crowded and in summer the temperatures are also more bearable. There was some great general information about being a night watchman and the ‘lower occupational groups’ in the Middle Ages, as well as information about medieval Munich. I lacked a ‘spatial idea of the city’, so an explanation of the original city wall, for example, and possibly one or the other night watchman scary story! The time frame of the tour was not mentioned in advance and was unclear even during the tour. Overall, the information was easy to understand and chronologically comprehensible and presented some interesting “Munich medieval toris”. The night watchman was absolutely cool and likeable with his outfit and manner. I can recommend the tour for people who are looking for a little insight into medieval Munich without big tamtam, creeps, touri crowds and eternal running paths.
It was an authentic tour, humorous and informative. Although there were only four of us, the tour took place. Thank you! We were able to enjoy a “VIP tour”. Highly recommended!
An excellent, highly recommended night watchman tour of Munich. Our night watchman has brought us closer to the history of Munich and life in the city in the Middle Ages with a lot of knowledge and humor. Even as natives of Munich, who have lived here - with some interruptions - for over 60 years, we have learned a lot of new things again.
We really liked the tour. Just the right mix between history, stories & anecdotes and a bit of scariness. Even our 14 year old boys were fascinated and never bored. Certainly the impressive stature of our night watchman Peter contributed to this, who led us through the tour with a lot of wit and charm. Thank you for a nice evening.
It was a wonderful experience, fun, exciting and accompanied by many great stories. Highly recommended 👍👍👍
The tour was super exciting and despite all the historical information we got, it was never “too much” or lengthy. Rear guard Peter brought this across super well, authentically and humorously!
A great nightwatchman tour through Munich 🙂 Peter our nightwatchman has brought us a little closer to the past with wit and knowledge. One of the best nightwatchman tours I've done in a city, we had a lot of fun and a great tour with Peter, we can only recommend the nightwatchman tour :-)
Very interesting and educational. Barrier-free in the heart of Munich. Clothing appropriate to the season is required.
An absolutely great experience! Our night watchman Peter led us through the old town of Munich. In special places we were introduced to the historical past of Munich. From legends, legends about delicacies from history and their origins. It was a really nice experience and we could have listened for hours. Thank you so much!
Very informative city tour and authentic! Thank you - highly recommended. Super night watchman Peter :) Also suitable for a bachelor party to integrate some culture.
Despite rainy weather, the tour was very entertaining and highly recommended. The guide was very complete and knew how to tell lots of entertaining stories about Munich and the story. Especially the atmosphere of the tour at night is fascinating and unique.
