"Anecdotes from Original Locations" is the title of my Munich travel guide book. I specialize in Bavaria, Germany, and neighboring countries. By car / foot / segway / bike / metro / tram. (Stop Inflation: Pricing from 2019) To travel - not only means trendy districts and sights, but also the darker corners where subcultures arise and where the real birthplaces of typical dishes are (e. g. in Munich: White veal sausage, Prinzregenten cake, Hofbräu beer . . . ) - I'm an international tour guide. In addition to general city tours, I offer combine special theme tours about food+beer, 'death', history, modern architecture, anecdotes, religion, art, mystic, Hitler. Tours within Munich are 2,5-4 hr; outside Munich 5-12 hr or multi-days. Just name you special theme! - I started tour guiding in the US and Europe during my University time.

Dachau concentration camp, Schleissheim Castle, BMW-World, Olympiapark.
Overview of your Munich tour
Why not combine the Dachau concentration camp with the cultural and natural sights of the surrounding Five Lakes Region? Dachau, the first German concentration camp, was the only camp that operated during the entire twelve-year period of the Nazi dictatorship. It served as a "model" for all camps and was called the "School of Terror. " The largest SS training center in the 3rd Reich was also located there. By the time the US liberators arrived on April 29, 1945, 206, 000 people from 34 different nations had been imprisoned and over 41, 000 murdered. This tour helps to illuminate the socio-economic climate of the 1930s that enabled this tragic chapter in Germany's history to emerge. The museum is located in the former maintenance building. You will see a prisoner block, punishment cells and the crematoriums. After the war, three churches, a synagogue and a nunnery were built on the site. Dachau became an International Memorial Site/Documentation Center in 1965.

Bob picked up us up at our hotel in the morning and drove our family to Dachau where he led us through the historic facilities. Then, we had a quick stop for lunch followed by a nice, brief swim at a public rowing training facility. He dropped us off at BMW World for a quick visit which wrapped up an educational and interesting half-day.

We had an incredible day with our tour guide (Bob Moor) in Munich! He met us promptly at our hotel, and from there, we embarked on a well-organized adventure using trains and buses to explore both Dachau and Munich. The tour was fast-paced, which allowed us to see and experience so much in a single day. One of the highlights was the guide’s ability to seamlessly weave in a couple of “secret” experiences that added a unique and personal touch. The surprise tasting of a special liquor was such a thoughtful and memorable moment—we truly felt like we were getting an insider's view of Munich. Our guide’s knowledge, professionalism, and enthusiasm made the entire experience both educational and enjoyable. If you’re looking for a day packed with history, culture, and a few surprises along the way, I can’t recommend this tour enough!
