📖

Full description

Led by a licensed English-speaking guide, this two-hour tour walks through the Residenz, the former seat of Bavarian rulers in central Munich. Guests see richly decorated rooms and learn about the dynasty through the art, furnishings and architecture, then pass through the palace courtyards and the Hofgarten setting.

Skip-the-line admission to the palace is included, while the Treasury and Cuvilliés Theatre need separate tickets. Reviewers highlight small groups, patient explanations in every room and room for questions, and one noted the guide briefly repeating key points in German.

Reviews

Anne arrived late after getting lost and appreciated the guide reviewing what she had missed. Kind, patient and thorough explanations helped her leave with a good understanding of the palace.
