I am Elena, a licensed professional guide, mom of 3 kids and an expert in tourism, who creates unique itineraries and customized tours. You can book classical tours to the castles, palaces, city tours, the 3rd Reich history and hiking, unique tours by Zeppelin, private tours by airplanes and ballon trips over the Alps. My tours include culture, history, nature, and architecture. I also always strive to include some hidden gems that exist in many places but are not often shown to tourists. Because customer satisfaction is my highest priority, I customize tours based on the interests of my customers. I am passionate about sharing the beauty and history of Bavaria, and with my licensed expertise and high-level education, you can trust that your journey through this stunning region will be an unforgettable, informative, and enjoyable experience. While I am not a driver myself, I work closely with trusted companies in Munich to organize professional drivers and licensed minivans/cars that are registered as taxis, ensuring a comfortable and reliable transportation experience for my clients.

Elena was a wonderful guide during our visit during Oktoberfest. She showed us the highlights of the City and gave a lot of pertinent information of each site. She also gave us information on how to get to, get into, and what to expect for Oktoberfest which was to start the day after our tour. She has a lot of enthusiasm and knowledge and we would recommend Elena to anyone visiting Munich. Since we are from Hawaii, or half way around the world, we wanted to have the best tour, and Elena provided it!!!

Elena is an excellent tour guide for your visit to Munich. She was able to pass on her knowledge of the history of Munich and Residenz fluently to my wife and I. Elena was able to answer our questions thoroughly. She is a very friendly person and it was a pleasure to be in her company for her tour. We have no hesitation in recommending Elena for you Munich and Residenz guide.
