If a Stammtisch could talk… 😀 Lots of people come to the Hofbräuhaus every day, among them many a regular, a „Stammgast“. Meeting here every week, on the same day of week, at the same time of day, eating, drinking, discussing. There will be quite some stories that these regular’s tables, the Stammtische, have heard, don’t you think?

St. Peter's Church, the oldest Roman Catholic parish church in town, is famous for its tower platform and the amazing views you get from here – once you made it up the 14 flights of stairs, or 306 steps. It sure is not an easy hike, but more than worth it. We’ll be happy to tell you all about it on our walking tours!

Have you ever been up on „Alter Peter“?

🚩 Limestone, copper sheet and brick - that's what makes Munich's historic patina. Aged over the years, decades or centuries, matured, fixed and restored here and there due in the course of history....

Beautiful, isn't it?😍

Greetings from Munich! 😘🥨🍺👋

If you want to experience beauty, there is no better place for you than Nymphenburg Palace. Over the centuries, the Wittelsbach dynasty developed it from a small pleasure palace into one of the largest palace complexes in Europe. An ensemble full of architectural beauty with a generous park, which is partly still strictly "French", but mostly "English" - natural, so to speak. Does that sound a bit complicated right now? Don't worry, you'll find all the answers to your beauty questions, French or English, on our walking tours.

The Olympic Park with its sports facilities and the Olympic Village present both a unique architecture and landscape design that set standards 50 years ago. Explore the original sites of the 1972 Summer Games with us and find out where Mark Spitz won his seven gold medals.

It has become a beautiful tradition to rub the lions' noses that are guarding the gates to the Residence palace. People say that at least one of the lions has special powers – but which one could it be? And how did this rite develop? We’ll be happy to tell you more on our walking tours.

There is many a talent hiding in us tour guides. 🎶🎵 Singing traditional tunes is definitely one of them! 😁
“Solang der Alte Peter“ is an old song about St. Peter’s church nicknamed Old Pete, the green Isar river, the famous Hofbräuhaus beer tavern and the never ending “gemütlichkeit" in Munich. Enjoy! 🥨🍺

The Viktualienmarkt is definitely one of our favourite places in Munich!

On our tours, we always take our guests to this magical place offering anything that your heart - or your stomach - desires: fruits and vegetables, meat, sausages and eggs, butter and honey, fish, herbs, spices and delicatessen...we could go on and on.
And, of course, some chitchat with the vendors. They have plenty of tales to tell.

Have you ever been to Viktualienmarkt?

Thank you Culinary World Travel for sharing our virtual Sunday Bavarian Breakfast fun with this great collection of screenshots.

What do you all think: Shall we do more of these? 🥨🍻😊

This was one of funnest virtual tours I've been on!
Our Thanks goes out to Synthia and Tobias of .tours Munich.
They treated us to a virtual Breakfast in Munich this morning!
We learned that traditional Bavarian breakfast, consists of boiled sausages (Weisswurst) served with loads of sweet mustard, freshly baked pretzels and a refreshing Weissbier (wheat beer).
My husband was enjoying the tour so much that he suggested that we must have a "sausage " cook off . I am sure that his excited was largely due to the fact there would be a excuse to have "beer" for breakfast 😂😂.
He thinking a cook off between German Sausage, Italian, Chorizo, Andouille, Smoked Kielbasa and South African Boerewore.

But anyways we cannot wait to meet in person Synthia and Tobias, the founders of Your Local Friend Tours Munich to experiance one of their culinary tours when travel reopens.
Have you ever had Beer for breakfast? let us know in the comments below.

Sad but true and in no way unexpected - there will be no Oktoberfest 2021, as was announced earlier today by the Mayor of Munich and the Bavarian Prime Minister. For the 26th time in its 211-year history, the world’s largest public festival will not take place.

What else is there to say? Stay safe, everyone, and let’s keep our fingers crossed for Oktoberfest 2022! ❤🍻🥨

“To the members of the U.S. Armed Forces who liberated Munich from the N**i tyranny on April 30, 1945.”

This inscription can be found on the way to the inner courtyard of our New City Hall. It reminds us that 76 years ago today, on 30th April 1945 and one day after the liberation of the Dachau concentration camp, the Rainbow Division of the U.S. Army entered Munich. This ended the National Socialist tyranny in our city.
