Hi I'm Philipp, As an official Munich guide and former architect, I love blending architecture, art, and history to bring Munich to life. This special mix reveals the city’s famous landmarks — from Marienplatz, the Frauenkirche, and the Munich Residenz — to day trips like Neuschwanstein Castle and Nuremberg, as well as hidden local gems such as Bahnwärter Thiel with Street Art, Alte Utting, and the Isar River. Expect engaging stories, creative insights, and a fun twist — on select experiences, we’ll even create our own spray-painted Munich postcards. I speak fluent German (my native language), as well as English and Spanish. Join me for a unique experiences. Best, Philipp
