Tour Details

Explore Nuremberg, the City of Empires with its Medieval as well as Third Reich background. We use Germany's efficient and environmentally friendly public transportation for our walking tours. Our goal is to both inform and entertain the English-speaking visitors to this great city. We offer non-strenuous tours led by experienced, fluent English-speaking guides and believe walking is the best way to see Nuremberg. Let us show you a truly extraordinary place: beautiful and prosperous medieval walled city, center of the Holy Roman Empire, cradle of the German Renaissance, Temple City of the Third Reich, and home to both the Nuremberg Nazi Rallies and Nuremberg Trials. Our guides will show you where German Emperors were crowned, where saints are buried, where the most famous and talented German artisans in history created awe-inspiring works and where the colorful and lively markets have taken place for almost 700 years. We'll explore the enchanting Old Town with its fantastic regional food and drink and the greatest Christmas Markets in Germany (Christmas Markets are in December, but Christmas shopping is available year-round). After a lunch break in the marketplace, we'll head out to the Nazi rally grounds, the largest Third Reich ruins in the world. Tour highlights in the Old Town include the city walls, Craftsmen's Court, St Lawrence Church, Marketplace with the Beautiful Fountain and Wishing Ring, Old Town Hall, Albrecht-Durer-Platz and the Imperial Castle Courtyards. At the Rally Grounds you'll see Nuremberg's former World War I memorial, the Luitpold Arena from "Triumph of the Will" and the site of the Luitpold Hall, The Great Street and the Congress Hall of the Nazi Party.
