Walking tour of old town Munich

Excellent tour by our local guide Uta. It really brought the city to life and showed us lots of places I would otherwise have missed.

Good walking tour but not as advertised for the sights we were to see.

As advertised in the tour highlights. We did not stop by the Glockenspiel at 11,12 to see the clock experience. We walked through the Residenze of Munich, saw nothing of the beautiful architecture and stunning inside of the residenze outlined in the walking tour experience. It was raining, so this may have made a difference. No explanation was offered out side do the HB house other than the tour ends here. Viktoria was excellent at explaining the sites we did visit.
