We paid € 360 plus € 36 service charge for 4 persons ; we expected to get more then 2 pints and some cheese, sauer meat and sausages. Scandalous! I will see where to put it on internet to warn other people. Marion did her job as guide well.far much to expensive

This tour was great! Marjut is very kind, she even came to meet us at our hotel because we didn't know our way around and she gave us enough information about places to go and things to see that we could have made an entire second days worth of touring. She is very flexible, she has her options of food places she goes to for you to get a taste of many aspects of Bavaria, but works with you on where to go, when to best fit your needs. For instance, my wife was hungry as we hadn't eaten in quite a few hours. So instead of starting with some of the history, we jumped right into some food! Though she has places in mind of where to go, if you ask her about a stand or what something is, she will take you to try it. Many of the food stands offered free samples too. The most surprising thing to me was how good the Gluhwine (umlaut over the u, I just can't do it on this phone) was. My wife and I do not like wine, so hot wine didn't seem like something we would be into, but something about heating it up got rid of some of the typical bitter flavoring that wine has and made it sweeter. Perfect for a cold evening. Only recommendation is if you book with her, the typical German expectation for gratuity is 10%. Bring a bit more 10-15 $/Euro, because she buys all the food for you while you wait at the tables.

Our time with Marjut was wonderful. We booked with her for the day we arrived in Munich at 2:30PM, as we knew we would be tired from travel and would like to get adjusted to and oriented around the city and have dinner already figured out. Her deep knowledge of Munich's history made the tour both informative and engaging, as she guided us to major sites, sharing fascinating stories along the way. The quantity of food was great too. We had at least four stops around the Viktualienmarkt for Leberkas, the best bratwurst we've ever had, sauerkraut and sausages in the biergarten, a pretzel, and pickles. We had a stop for haxen, which was delicious. We even had an apple strudel for dessert. By the end, we were full and grateful for her tips on where to explore further. Marjut was outstanding!Munich with Marjut

Wir hatten Marion für eine Tour mit drei Erwachsenen und drei Kindern gebucht. Sie hat sich hervorragend auf die Kinder eingestellt und die Stadtführung auch für sie zu einem wirklich tollen, interaktiven Erlebnis gemacht. Es hat riesigen Spaß gemacht. Ihr Wissen über München und die Geschichte war ausgezeichnet und spannend. Sie hat auch die Bedürfnisse der Kinder berücksichtigt. Wenn sie müde waren oder ähnliches, fand sie immer ein schattiges Plätzchen oder eine Toilette. Ein großes Lob an sie. Dankeschön von der drutsch, kanadisch, chinesischen Gruppe. Not to forget, her englisch is perfect 👌 Ein großartiger Tag mit Marion.

We were deeply disappointed in this experience. We weren't made aware that it is a public holiday in Germany and that most things will be closed. Marjut didn't pivot the situation, instead gave us a history walking tour, which is not at all what we have booked. Very, very annoyed and not worth the money at all.Complete waste

Our custom walking tour with Marion was a highlight of our Munich stay (which, for the record, included the Taylor Swift concert.) Marion gave us the exact tour we wanted. We were only in Munich for a couple of days and given our 11 year-old daughter's limited attention span, she shared a perfect amount of history while showing us the great highlights. Our daughter was so taken by what Marion showed us that she was insistent on showing one of the churches to her cousin. Munich Private Custom Walking Tour with a Local

Marjut was very knowledgeable about the history of Munich and took us to many sights of interest around the city. She was friendly and very enthusiastic. Our only criticism is that we didn't try a lot of food, considering it was a food tour. We would have appreciated more variety in the food we sampled and being introduced to some of the lesser known delicacies. A good introduction to Munich

We had the best 10 Tastings of Munich with Marjut. We tried out so many new meats and foods. We also saw the most incredible local sites and found out so much about Munich. Make sure to schedule your tour early enough so that shops in the market don’t start closing on you. That was not Marjut’s fault. In fact she got us to a lot more places than I thought she would given the hour.

Marjut hat uns an einem heißen Sommertag frisch und fröhlich empfangen und hat uns sehr versiert durch die Innenstadt Münchens geführt. Wir konnten aus drei Optionen wählen, wie wir München von oben aus sehen wollen, denn es gibt sowohl die Möglichkeit Treppen zu erklimmen (Alter Peter), als auch bequem mit dem Fahrstuhl zu fahren (Frauenkirche). Sie ging nicht nur hier auf unsere Wünsche ein, so dass wir sehr individuell geführt wurden. Auch vermittelte sie nicht den Eindruck, unter Zeitdruck zu stehen, sondern führte uns als wären wir schon länger befreundet. Wir hatten jede Menge Spaß und fühlten uns bestens aufgehoben.Frisch-fröhliche Tour durch München

Marion did an excellent job, and we loved our 3-hour tour. City Unscripted promised to match us with an appropriate guide, and they did. We had asked to learn about the evolution of Munich as a city and how it is presently dealing with climate change. Marion addressed all this in an engaging manner. She carefully picked out spots to show us and stories to tell that revealed the big picture. We would have missed many interesting things without her. Marion also used many fun and engaging props - I won't reveal all of her secrets, but will admit that at one point, a puppet was involved, which delighted me. She also obviously did some homework before our visit and printed out and gave us images of the city that showed its boundaries and development over time. This was a perfect tour for us. Kudos to Marion! We will use City Unscripted again.Kickstart to Munich
