Great tour and wonderful guide
Great tour! Loved learning the history of Nuremburg as well as touring Old Town and the Rally Grounds. We had an absolute beautiful day, and the city is so lovely. Dimitri was a great guide!

Phenomenal! Long day wear...
Phenomenal! Long day wear your sneakers!!! Just a wonderful experience if you are looking for history TAKE this tour! Johannesburg was full of factual and historical information that I promise you - you did NOT know. 10 stars!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review of your tour with Johannes (I think autocorrect may have changed his name a bit)!

Tour should include Zeppelinfeld.
While the tour of the city was good, the tour referred to 'Nazi Rally Grounds'. We were taken to the 'Luitpoldhain' field and not the Zeppelinfeld (The Zeppelinfield is the main Nazi rally field). So, should you wish to join this tour, ask if the Zeppelinfield is to be visited; otherwise, you may be VERY disappointed. This is like going to the Louvre and not seeing the Mona Lisa! Or you can catch a Tram/light Rail or taxi (for about 20 Euro).
Response from the operator: Please read the tour itinerary before you book a tour. The Zeppelin Field is currently a construction zone, the grandstand inaccessible and completely covered by scaffolding. This is why it is not included in our tour itinerary. Also, to be clear, the Zeppelin Field was used exactly twice upon completion (completed 1937, last rallies were 1938). The Mona Lisa it is not. The Luitpoldhain, where you were taken, was the area the Nazis used by far the most and the settling for their most infamous propaganda film, Triumph of the Will. In addition, the Congress Hall of the Nazi Party is included on the tour. Sorry you were nevertheless disappointed.

Amazing guide!
Dimitri was an awesome tour guide. There is so much amazing history to see and learn about in Nuremberg and he did such a good job of hitting the key points and keeping us moving, while inspiring interest in learning more on our own. Very good tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your review!

Great Tour
Nikolas was funny, engaging, and really knew his stuff! We learned a ton about Neuremburg and every beergarden or restaurant he recommended was amazing as well.
Response from the operator: Glad you enjoyed the tour and thank you for leaving a review!

How many days do you need in Nuremberg?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
