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.

Anna was lovely! She kindly showed me around and helped me get the lay of the land. She has an impressive knowledge of history and I really enjoyed the historical anecdotes that made the sites come to life!

THE TOUR SERVICE IS A VERY GOOD OPTION YOU CAN SEE THE PLACES OF INTEREST IN MUNICHS THEY PASS FOLLOWLY AND THE GOOD THING IS THAT YOU CAN GO UP AND DOWN ALL THE TIME

I had a bus all to myself sometimes. The headset information was very interesting. Sometimes I think the timing of the bus and information became disjointed.

An excellent way to see the highlights of Munich! While we didn’t go into every stop, we had a great time.
