The knowledge that our tour guide had on the history and culture of Germany was truly awesome and he was able to keep all of us engaged and having fun. I would 100% recommend The Thirsty Historians, they truly made an effort to not just show us the culture but make us a part of it. Every step of the way was a fascinating adventure. Thank you all very much!

Excellent historical tour to Dachau with Adam... He knows his stuff!…read more He provides factual information and a narrative that brings the experience alive. It's well worth the trip out to Dachau... & the tour exposes the ugly truth of the Nazi regime. Bring water & a sandwich and enjoy the day learning and seeing.

We met our tour guide Jon and 5 others joined the tour as well. The tour price included the fare on the lightrail and bus to get to Dachau. It was really nice to not have to worry about the times and connections. Not that it would have been a huge deal, but when on vacation, I like to worry less about logistics. Jon was very knowledgeable and I am so glad that I did use InMunich Tours because it was nice to have someone talk about the key points of the Dachau Memorial. If you're ever in the area, I would check out this tour company because they are very professional and knowledgeable.

He carried large bags with him, and at different times of the tour, would pull out wonderful items to enhance the tour. He was patient with us when we wanted to spend more time at a particular place, and we never felt rushed. If you're considering a private guide in Munich, hire Taff!

We spent a wonderful day with Taff! I can't say enough about how informative he was.

He took us around Munich in the morning, then we grabbed a snack at the train station and headed to Dachau. After the sobering personal tour around the grounds, we shared beers and trained home. It was great sharing the day with a local and hearing his passion for his work. Please don't hesitate to spend a little more and get a personal tour with him. You may not go here again, so make the most of it.

The walkthrough takes about an hour and a half and definitely worth a visit.

It is beautiful during the day but it is very pretty also at night as the area is well-lit and the statues and buildings look quite a bit different. It's always clean and well-kept and is open and a nice area to sit and enjoy the day or people-watch. We entered this time from the English Garden and walked through the gardens of the Munich Residence as well before coming through here on our way to Marienplatz and beyond. So it was a walking day for us but it's easy to see all of those things as you walk the city if you have time. A historic plaza to be sure and one you shouldn't miss if you are here.

We learned so much about cars, trains, bicycles, and delivery vehicles here. For example, I learned why the Audi TT is so named: because the Audi company had merged with a company that had success in the "Tourist Trophy" races. Most of the cars are behind ropes, but they are spaced out such that you can get a good look at them from all sides. We spent three hours here because we are "read every sign" kind of people. I appreciated that they had vending machines for snacks and beverages, because I got hungry mid-adventure. My favorite sections were the wall with the history of bicycle wheels and the area with the interactive demonstrations of the components of a car. Yes, I do want to see how a rotary engine works!
