We liked our tour so much that we actually back tracked and did the entire thing again…ending at our guide’s recommendation for dinner. Such a delight! Thank you Vanessa!Great guide, great time

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.

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

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
