Experience Munich with fun and passion! Munich is full of life, stories and surprises - and I invite you to discover this city in a very special way. As a true Munich resident, I will show you the most exciting corners, the liveliest places and the most charming sides of this city - and with lots of joy and enthusiasm! Whether it's about the hidden highlights, the best photo spots or a relaxed exchange about the Munich attitude to life, the focus of my tour is fun. My international experiences - from trips through Chile, Japan, Australia, South Africa, Europe and the USA - are included. People and stories always come first for me. In addition to my passion for Munich, I like to be active in my free time - climbing, bouldering and mastering new challenges are among my hobbies. With German roots, Spanish temperament and Estonian curiosity, I bring an international mix that also flows into my tours. I speak fluent German, English and Spanish - and a little French - so we can talk in your favorite language. So, let's discover Munich together and have an unforgettable day! 😊

Hello! My name is Jax and I'm a professional tour guide who's lived in Munich since 2016. Over the years, I worked for two of the best tour agencies in Munich as a freelancer and in March 2021, I started my own tour company 'Heart of Munich Tours'. Over the years I've received hundreds of five-star reviews across Tripadvisor, Google, Getyourguide, Viator, Guruwalk and other platforms. My free tour is also currently the highest rated in Munich across multiple platforms! My guiding style is interactive, passionate, clear spoken, inclusive, fun and at times theatrical. I always bring my tablet on tour to share old photos and pictures to bring history to life. Please note: I do many of the tours and the rest are covered my small team of amazing guides!
