A journey into the past - 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

Nightwatchman torchlight tour in Munich - An experience !! - 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.

Absolutely recommend! - 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.

Can we recommend - 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.
