A morning in Munich opens with the clack of tram rails and the scent of fresh pretzels; Curt meets guests outside Cafe Rischart, maps in hand, and the city unfurls like a living history book. The tour moves at an intentional walking pace—cobblestones underfoot, Gothic facades rising above narrow streets, the echo of church bells carrying from the cathedral. Curt mixes large-picture context with close-up details: medieval marketplaces, the sculpted faces of the New Town Hall, and the small courtyards most visitors miss.
