Culture Shock Rating

We have a wide range of tours designed to give you an insight into the destination you're travelling in and there is something for everybody. The culture shock ratings considers the destination visited, transport used, activities undertaken and that "Wow, I'm really not at home now!" factor. While generalisations are always tricky, a summary of our gradings is as follows…

This is the least confronting of our tour range. Transport used on the trip is either private or a very comfortable public option, the activities included are usually iconic sites and locations that are not all too confronting.

The tour can include a mix of private and public transport providing a level of comfort that is slightly below what you would experience at home. Sites visited are usually iconic sites, tours can also include market visits, visits to communities etc that provide the traveller with a fantastic insight into destination.

Expect to rough it for parts of this tour, whether it's a packed public bus where you are forced to stand, a visit to a local market, a local community, you are sure to have an experience that is very different from what you're used to at home.

The comforts of your home town and the environment you are used to are more of a rarity. Expect some challenging transport options, visits to local sites and areas that don't resemble anything at home.

You're out there in the global community! You are likely to be exposed to the elements, travel in whatever means of transport is available and basically take it as it comes, whatever comes! It can be tough.

Physical Rating

Our physical rating gives you an idea of how much huffing and puffing you can expect on the tour. While generalisations are always tricky, a summary of our gradings is as follows…

These tours have very limited physical activity. Usually climbing in and out of the transport provided, walking through sites, markets etc included in the itinerary.

These tours have a bit of physical activity but nothing that should challenge you too much. This could be climbing on and off public transport through to a walk through the destination you're travelling in, they can include walking only tours or a combination of walking and transport.

These tours involve a bit of physical activity from walking up and down hills in the destination you're travelling in or the surrounding areas. Climbing on and off local transport or riding a bike up to 30 kms along predominantly flat terrain or jumping in a kayak for a gentle paddle on flat water.

These Tours will provide you with some solid physical activity. Whether its bike riding, walking, trekking, kayaking or riding on public transport you will need to have a good level of fitness to enjoy this tour.

Be prepared for some serious physical activity. These tours are our most challenging and involve some serious walking, hiking or bike riding. Can involve step climbs by foot or pedal and some challenging public transport options in the destination you are travelling.

Luxury Rating

Some trips are like a stroll on the beach, while others have you trekking alpine passes. Some of you thrive on camping out on the savannah, while others may prefer a hot shower and a comfortable bed in a lodge. Follow the grading systems below to find the right trip for you.

To help you choose the trip that's right for you, we've broken all of our trips down into four service levels. Measuring the comfort level of the accommodation and transport. So whether you're travelling on a budget and want to save money by using public transport, or prefer upgraded accommodation and are happy to pay a little more, then we have a level for you.

Ghost Walking Tour

Experience the atrocities of the dark ages.

Looking for the dark side of Munich? The ghost walking tour will send shivers down your spine.

As you can imagine we usually don't take a walking tour in Munich :-) But this one is different, very different.

Your Guide Gravedigger Josef

The two hour Ghost walking tour features a guide and several actors, who play scenes from the medieval past of Munich. Spooky and terrifying scenes I may add. It is not for the faint of heart

We met at 8 pm at Sendlinger Tor. The tour has to be at night, because otherwise you won't see any haunted spirits, right? We had expected to be met by a nice and tidy tour guide, but no! No one less than Gravedigger Josef Grundlgruber personally (in his rugged and dirty attire) met to greet us.

After we recovered from the first shock and found out that Josef looks quite scary but actually is a really nice guy who knows his way around in Munich (and has a shovel to protect us against evil beings), we decided to stay with him for the Munich tour.

I can tell you, that was only the first scary moment and there was a lot more to come.....

Our guide Josef led us through little known and narrow alleys where we could already feel the spooky atmosphere and hear the ghosts whispering behind us. Thank God, we were in a group of at least 10 persons and my husband was with me. (He will laugh if he reads this, but I held onto his hand just because it felt much safer...)

Cruel Methods Against the Black Death

We just had passed an old house when suddenly a window opened and a poor woman started screaming. She was completely healthy, but had been bricked inside with dozens of people dying from the Black Death. Nobody was to let her out because of fear she would spread this deadly disease.

She begged us to at least send some food and water inside with a bucket. What a shocking experience!

Ghosts on the Graveyard

Gravedigger Josef hurried us onwards to the next ghostly scene: The graveyard of the Frauenkirche cathedral. Why on earth did I agree to participate in this tour? Wouldn't I know better than to visit a graveyard at night?

Guess what happened next: two very bizarre persons appeared out of the nowhere and started arguing about what places on the cemetery are more comfortable living places than others.... thankfully they didn't seem to notice us and I was very relieved when we left that place and moved on to some better lit areas.

Our guide mentioned, that during medieval times there was no such thing as street lighting and the only light you had was the little lantern in your hand. Therefore people wouldn't go outside after dark if at all possible.

Tortured by the Iron Maiden

But the scariest place was yet to come: the Jungfernturm (Tower of the Iron Maiden). This was a very cruel torturing instrument: an iron woman statue with thorns inside. The poor victims were put inside and the door closed. This way they were pricked to death and it's said that you could hear their cries for days and even nowadays you can hear them at night during witching hour.

I was quite happy, when our tour ended and decided to stay in the brightly lit areas of modern Munich.

The ghost walking tour with theatrical scenes was a fantastic, yet scary experience.

Dress for the Occasion

It's offered by Weisser Stadtvogel and you can book it here: Ghost Walking Tour Munich . I believe the guide can translate for you what he explains, but the theatrical scenes will only be in German.
