Step into the many layers of Nuremberg’s past on this private walking tour, designed exclusively for you and your group. From medieval streets and imperial landmarks to the powerful remains of the Nazi Rally Grounds, this personalized experience offers an insightful and thought-provoking journey through one of Germany’s most historically significant cities—at your own pace, with your private guide.
Nuremberg Old Town & Nazi Rally Grounds
Medieval streets, imperial power, and the darkest chapter of the 20th century—this is Nuremberg in all its complexity.
On this private half-day tour, you’ll explore two very different faces of Nuremberg: the beautifully preserved medieval Old Town and the vast remains of the Nazi Party Rally Grounds, where history must be remembered and understood. Traveling exclusively with your private guide, the experience is fully personalized, allowing time for questions, discussion, and thoughtful reflection at your own pace.
Medieval Heritage, Third Reich History & Modern Reflection
Your tour starts in central Nuremberg, where you’ll meet your experienced English-speaking private guide. Traveling primarily on foot and using Germany’s efficient public transportation (included), this private format allows for flexibility, deeper storytelling, and the freedom to focus on what interests you most.
Walking is the best way to understand Nuremberg—and every corner has a story to tell.
Historic Highlights
We begin in the heart of the Old Town, where centuries of history unfold among half-timbered houses, fortified walls, and cobbled streets.

In the second half of the tour, we travel to the former Nazi Party Rally Grounds, home to some of the most significant surviving structures of the Third Reich.
