So much to see in Munich - Fantastic walking tour of Old Town Munich by a local. Wolfgang, our guide, knew so many interesting facts about Munich and really explained everything so thoroughly. He also gave some wonderful tips regarding dining, etc. Having a guide like Wolfgang really beings the city to life for us.
