About this tour
This session moves through a Munich evening of beer halls and gardens, from Augustiner-Keller's chestnut garden to a neighbourhood Wirtshaus and past the Hofbräuhaus toward quieter tables. The camera settles on the details, the size of the glasses, the shade of the chestnut trees, the plate set out at the end. The guide explains the rules that go with each one along the way.
The call opens with a short sound check, then moves garden to garden as the evening develops, leaving room for questions about anything unfamiliar. A short list of the beer sizes and gardens mentioned follows by message once the call ends.
This suits anyone curious about Munich's beer culture beyond the well-known hall, whether planning a visit or simply interested from a distance. It also works for a relaxed evening watching someone else work out the rules.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way

Itinerary
-
Welcome and sound check 7 min
The guide joins the video call, checks the picture and sound with you, and gives you a quick sense of Munich before heading out.
-
Augustiner-Keller garden 21 min
Augustiner-Keller's chestnut garden fills up in the warmer months, and the guide explains why Munich's beer gardens are built under chestnut trees in the first place, a habit left over from cellar brewing.
-
Neighbourhood Wirtshaus 21 min
The walk passes a neighbourhood Wirtshaus that locals still use on an ordinary evening, then goes by the Hofbräuhaus, which the guide explains before moving straight past it toward quieter places.
-
Beer garden table 21 min
At a table in a beer garden, the guide explains the sizes, a Maß, a Halbe, a Radler and a Russ, while a Brotzeit plate sits ready to be shared at the table.
-
Your questions 14 min
Time to ask anything about Munich: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 6 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Brezn (pretzels) and Schwabing, worth a slower look.

Questions about this tour

What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Is this suitable if I do not drink?
