I'm Andreas, a 30 year old German born and raised in Nuremberg. The first walking tour tour I joined was with my grandfather who lived in Nuremberg for 86 years. He showed his 5 year old grandson his city. Now, 25 years later, I want to do the same to you and show you my city. This is my mission. Since I started this, a lot changed. Now we are an international team of born Nuremberg citizen, Italian historians and Columbian lawyers. We offer professional and passionate old-town tours in English, Spanish and German in the cities Nuremberg and Bamberg! We do what we do, because we love it and therefore we are happy to being your Gurus in Nuremberg and in Bamberg! For more check also our website at https://www.nurembergfreetour.com/

You will learn all about the typicall Nuremberg specialites and where to find the best places to get them. Together we will go to the house of the most important German artist, Albrecht Durer. Listen to stories of the hangman Franz Schmidt, and why he was a feminist. Understand Nurembergs path to deal with the heritage of the Nazi-era and how the city was rebuild after its doom in the WW2.
After the tour we will have time to answer all your questions and we are happy to help you with your plans in and around Nuremberg.

Why good purpose?
For every booking we donate 1€ to the "Altstadtfreunde" (Oldtown friends), a club that renovates the "Pilatushaus" a workshop and residence from 1489. This jewel at Nurembergs most beautiful place needs an investmend of millions of Euro, and it is the citizen and companies of Nuremberg that are now collecting the money for it. This is our small contribution for it.
