Wonderful tour by a knowledgeable guide before the castle tour! He had obviously done his research and was able to add more, and more historically accurate, details. Lots of "fun" facts, too (I had no idea what BMW stood for or why the logo looks looks like it does. I do now!). He knows all the best spots for pictures and the best times to get them in before the next tour groups arrive. Skipping the line for the castle tour tickets was a real plus. Highly recommend!

Relaxed yet full of life and passion for his craft, his subject and his niche, Kevin is 'The Picasso' of tour guiding in Germany. I learned so much about details and points of view, you'll never read in a book, or notice in a photo. It's great to learn from someone who makes a difference to the way we look at life, and shows that we should and can learn from history. Thanks for an awesome day Kevin.

On March 22, 1933, a few weeks after Adolf Hitler had been appointed Reich Chancellor, a concentration camp for political prisoners was set up in Dachau. This camp served as a model for all later concentration camps and as a "school of violence" for the SS men under whose command it stood. In the twelve years of its existence over 200. 000 persons from all over Europe were imprisoned here and in the numerous subsidary camps. 41. 500 were murdered. On April 29 1945, American troops liberated the survivors.

6. Full-Day Brewing Heartlad Hiking/Bierkeller Tour in Franconia
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 1 reviews
Part of what makes this region so unique is the number of small family run brewpubs that dot the countryside. This particular area is blessed with great rural scenery which passes through some pretty small villages. During the 9-Hours Brewing Heartland Hiking Experience in Germany, you'll experience a part of Bavaria rarely seen by tourists as you hike the 10 miles through the heart of this brewing paradise. The brewpubs are from another time, simple but of great value. Regional specialties like Geräuchertes (smoked ham) go perfectly with the the very much local brews, often served via gravity dispense by the brewer himself. These are beers you're not going to find back home and they'll have you pining for them once back there. -Please not the Sunday departure follows a different route in a slightly different area and hence takes in different breweries and is about half the distance. This option is also possible on Saturday.
Inclusions: Transportation to and from hike via public transportation. , Guided 10-mile hike (shorter version available) through an area fondly called Franconian Tuscany.
Exclusions: We will be stopping a number of small rural brewpubs and all food and beverages are at your own expense., Food at brewpubs is also at your own expense.

Our family of five did a day-long beer hike with Rich in the area around Bamberg while on our Franconian/Bavarian holiday last August. Rich was an exceptional guide for the day, and this was quite possibly our favorite and most memorable day of the entire trip. Even our two 12-year-olds really enjoyed the day despite not being able to enjoy the beer (Spezi was available at all of our stops.) We were able to visit four wonderful local breweries (Brauerei Hönig, Brauerei Hölzlein, Brauerei Knoblach, and Brauerei Drei Kronen) before catching the last bus back from Memmelsdorf to Bamberg in the evening. In between, we covered about nine miles of some amazing Franconian countryside where we were the only people in sight. At one point I found myself simply awestruck that I was walking with my family through a forest in Bavaria on a barely-marked trail, and I was so comfortable with Rich's competence that I wasn't anxious at all and could just enjoy the scenery around me. I can't recommend Rich's beer hikes highly enough... you'll gain lifelong memories!

We did a private Nazi Party Grounds tour and found it to be extremely interesting and captivating. Kevin is very knowledgeable about Nazi party history and also shared some behind the scenes information which you would not normally hear about in a large guided tour. Kevin was also very amenable to both walking and driving as the weather changed dramatically during our time together. We learned a lot and will definitely take future tours with Kevin. Highly recommend!!

Great day trip from Munich. I always wondered why so many fairy tales originate from Germany. Well, all those castles answer the questions.
