We were informed about everything worth knowing. With the 48-hour ticket, you saved the cost of any public transport, as it also went to destinations outside the city center. For example, the English Garden or Nymphenburg Palace. Or the Opympia grounds.
Highly recommended at any time.

The staff were very friendly and in a good mood, the tour had a different route due to the many construction sites. The explanations via headphones were in different languages, everything was well explained and easy to understand. I will try a different tour on my next visit...

The friendly and helpful staff, for whom no question was too stupid.
To get to know all the lines on the first day, we hopped the interesting parts the next day.
Perhaps one thing: there is no address/street of the starting station on your website. Not easy to find when you arrive at the station underground

Très intéressants tours de ville. Trois circuits possibles. Descendre faire une visite de musée et retrouver le bus ensuite est difficile, voire impossible, car les horaires ne sont pas indiqués aux différents arrêts.
