Traveler Tips

It does involve a good bit of walking at a brisk pace so be prepared for that.
Please know there is not a stop for a toilet until the very end.
An action packed few hours, this is a great tour to see some of the sites of Munich by foot, and hear some of the history.

A stroll through Munich to learn a bit of the past
Kimberley_D, Mar 2023
The tour was really good. Our guide Achim had so much knowledge to answer all the questions. He also had a good sense of humor and related some of the NS behaviors to modern day events. The tour was not demanding in terms of physicality and we walked at a good pace. The tour felt too short! We wanted to learn more.

We enjoyed this tour and learned a lot of history unknown to us. Enjoyed seeing all the buildings and the stories about how they were used. Curt was our guide and gave us a pdf of a book he wrote on the war also.

I strongly recommend this tour. Ian was fantastic. He is extremely knowledgeable and charismatic. We had a large group of English speaking tourists. Although the size was large, Ian navigated is through the city with ease.

Dan, our guide, is a knowledgeable person. The tour was full of interesting and valuable information. We went to iconic places from "der dritte Reich". This tour is worth every penny.

Informative tour with great guide.
Sue_S, Mar 2023
Excellent tour with guide Jake. He made it very personal and was enthusiastic and humorous. As it was a cold day I think 2 hours would have been a more reasonable length rather than that extra half hour.
Response from Host, Mar 2023
Sue, thank you very much for putting your trust in us at Radius Tours for your Third Recih Walking Tour. Sorry that the tour felt a little long in the cold, but we still believe this topic should receive the same attention regardless of the weather, as this is an important lesson to ensure that horrible actions like this never repeat itself.
Really Interesting but make sure you go to the toilet and are prepared to walk fast !
Paul_W, Mar 2023
Really interesting walking tour, the guide Steve (I think) was both passionate in his delivery of the facts and very funny. You get to see a number of places which really painted the picture of the rise of the of the Nazi party. As other reviewers have mentioned its a good two and half to three hours long and there no toilet break. So I would recommend going before hand. The guide also walked at a very brisk pace so this may not be the tour for you if you have trouble walking.
Response from Host, Mar 2023
Paul, thanks so much for sharing your feedback with us on our Third Reich Walking Tour. We highly appreciate you putting your trust in us whilst in Munich.
