I booked the On-Off Bus for my grandson and myself. I choose this particular tour because it offered two routes, one going a bit out of town to the BMW Museum and the Olympic Park, both of which were of interest to us. We also took advantage of the intown route. The audio provided a good description of the buildings and areas we passed. I find Hop on Hop Off busses a plus in every new city I visit, and this did not disappoint. My only issue was that we missed the first bus trying to find out where we should be. Another tour we took which picked up at the same spot provided a google map location. This would be helpful.

we've had a great experience with it! lots of historical information given in a very understandable way. Even if your German if far from excellence, you'll still enjoy it

Alun was amazing! One of the best and most informative tours we’ve done. So interesting to learn about a city from a very unique perspective.

Sehr schöne Tour. Viele Sehenswürdigkeiten hätten wir ohne die Tour übersehen. Unser Guide Steffi war hervorragend.

A great way to discover the Old Town…strongly recommended
