Konrad

Konrad calls Munich home and was born here, but has lived in so many countries he often loses track. Although he speaks seven languages, his favorite is “Bavarian”. He’s been blowing customers away on tours with us since 2011.

Konrad´s Munich Tips

Favorite Tour:

I love going on an extended e-bike tour to Nymphenburg Palace and the Olympic park. The rides out there are easy by e-bike and get folks outside of just the city center. And, Oktoberfest Tour is that perfect time of year when we get the biggest mix of nationalities, everyone in good spirits, lots of different cultures, and amazing weather.

Favorite Site:

The Monopteros Monument at the Englischer Garden. From only that spot can you see the towers and spires of Munich’s main buildings and churches appearing above the trees.

Insider Tip:

Surfers Bridge at the Englischer Garten always makes people go “wow!"

Tex

“Tex” is from… Texas.  Although born and raised there he met a lovely German lady and followed her to Munich more than two decades ago. If you don’t see Tex in our shop, you’ll likely find him in a park playing chess or honing his poker skills.

 

Tex's Munich Tips

Favorite Tour:

The e-bikes are great. Munich’s cycle paths, particularly along the Isar River, are world-class and have to be experienced to call any trip to Munich complete.  

Favorite Site:

The Deutsches Museum is a gem. There is one particular off-the-beaten path site that is actually part of the museum’s exhibit, but that is quite a bit off the museum grounds.

Insider Tip:

Don’t forget that at the self-service area in beer gardens you can bring your own food. Pack a picnic, grab a bench at the beer garden, go up to the counter and buy your beer, and then relaxing enjoy the day like the locals.

Achim

Achim, Bavarian-born and Bavarian at heart, has called Munich home sine 2003. He has literally written the book on Munich guiding, having authored a tour guide book available on Amazon or your local book store. He’s well-known in tourism circles around the city, and when not here you can find him working on edits for his Montenegro tour book.

Why is Munich a great city worth visiting or living in:

He tried the alternatives. His native Franconia wasn’t metropolitan enough, Berlin was too raw, the weather in Hamburg was too rainy… After a dozen years here he’s pleased with his decision to call Munich home.

Achim's Munich Tips

Favorite Tour:

The best tour for the “Village of a million people”?  That has to be one that takes in the charm and the variety of the city.  For that it has to be on E-Bikes from Nymphenburg to the Zum Flaucher beer garden.  It covers an amazing swath of the city.  

Favorite Site:

The beer garden.  It doesn’t matter where, on a warm summer evening they’re all bustling. Best of all, German law dictates you can bring your own food with you.  Don’t believe it, look it up: BImSchG §23, Abs. 2, Satz 1. Still, Achim insists he makes the best obatzda (Bavarian cheese cream).  

Insider Tip:

Munich can be an expensive city, but many of the best things are free.  Or close to free: for a delightful evening in the company of fun people, head to the Isar river and grab a couple bottles of beer, wine, or whatever suits your fancy.  The rest will take care of itself in such relaxing environs.
