5.00I had a great time touring with Vanessa. She’s very knowledgeable and we walked through old town visiting churches, art buildings, and important places with ease. She also recommended restaurants and gave useful information and tidbit. Returning to these places gave me an advantage that my friends didn’t have.

5.00I had a great experience touring with Vanessa. She is very knowledgeable and she made going around old town very easy and fun. She picked me from my hotel then we walk around to different churches, art buildings and important places going through alleyways, giving me history and fun facts. She also recommended restaurants and all information are very helpful. Going back to these places I can still Vanessa’s stories. I have the different appreciation because I’ve toured with her before hand.

5.00Naveen was a wonderful tour guide! We had an 8-hour layover in Munich, so we booked the 3 hour tour. We landed an hour late and hadn't accounted for the travel to/from Munich city center, but Naveen helped us make the most of our (short) time in Munich! He is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and overall an awesome tour guide. Highly recommend!

5.00We booked the two hour walking tour to get an overview of munich on our day of arrival. We were met at our hotel which made it easy and convenient. Anna showed us many sights we might have missed otherwise as well as answered specific questions we had about the city in general. Highly recommend this tour to get you started on on your sightseeing as well as if you only have limited time to spend in the area. Great tour!
Fun and friendly walking tour!

5.00This was an excellent introduction to Munich. Markus was our guide and he was very knowledgeable about the city, he adapted the route really well as we walked around so he could accommodate our preferences. We ended the tour armed with plenty of local knowledge to help us make the most out of our stay in Munich. Thank you Markus, it was a pleasure to meet you
Customized and excellent

5.00We did a private tour with Esper. Both the tour operator and Esper did a excellent job finding out our interests and customizing the tour. We had a wonderful time exploring Munich. Esper was very good at accommodating our pace and needs (my partner was still recovering from surgery a couple of months prior). We stopped at a delicious pastry shop to rest and have a treat and warm beverages. He made some dinner recommendations that we ended up trying later. It was delicious. When my partner wasn't feeling well and went back to the hotel, Esper did a fantastic job making sure I enjoyed the rest of the tour. I would very much recommend Esper and City Unscripted Munich.
Excellent afternoon in Munich with Markus!

5.00We had such a wonderful time with Markus! He listened to what we were interested in doing and created a wonderful itinerary. He even called a few restaurants on our behalf in order to take us to a beautiful view. He was super informative, warm, fun, and helpful. Would highly recommend!
