Bamberg – A Timeless Treasure with Sepp

Private Tour: Wander Through Bamberg’s Medieval Streets, Historic Landmarks & Idyllic River Views!

Morning Pickup – Your Private Bamberg Adventure Begins

Your day starts in the morning with a comfortable pickup from your hotel or private accommodation in Munich, Ingolstadt, or Nuremberg. Step into a cozy vehicle stocked with cool drinks and snacks—sit back, relax, and enjoy the scenic ride through the rolling Franconian hills toward Bamberg, one of Germany’s best-preserved medieval cities.

As we drive, I’ll share stories of Bamberg’s fascinating history—from its time as a seat of bishops and emperors to its role as a baroque masterpiece and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Exploring Bamberg’s Old Town – A City Built on Seven Hills

✔ Bamberg Cathedral (Bamberger Dom) – We’ll begin our journey at this majestic Romanesque cathedral, home to the famous Bamberg Horseman statue and the tombs of Emperor Henry II and Empress Cunigunde.

✔ Old Court (Alte Hofhaltung) – Step into the charming courtyard where medieval architecture meets Renaissance elegance, once the residence of Bamberg’s bishops.

✔ New Residence & Rose Garden (Neue Residenz) – Explore the grandeur of Bamberg’s Baroque palace and stroll through its beautiful rose garden, offering stunning views across the city’s rooftops.

✔ Altes Rathaus (Old Town Hall) – One of the most unique buildings in Europe, this colorful half-timbered gem was built on a tiny island in the middle of the Regnitz River—a perfect spot for photos!

A Taste of Franconia – Lunch by the River

After exploring, we’ll enjoy a delicious Franconian lunch in one of Bamberg’s historic taverns or riverside restaurants. A main course and a drink of your choice are included in the tour price.

✔ Try Bamberg’s Famous Smoked Beer (Rauchbier) – Unique to this city, this dark, smoky brew tastes like a sip of history—paired perfectly with hearty local dishes like Schäuferla (pork shoulder) or Bratwurst.

✔ Sweet Treat: Sample a local pastry or ice cream along the waterfront as we enjoy the relaxed rhythm of Bamberg life.

Little Venice & Hidden Corners

After lunch, we’ll wander into Klein Venedig (Little Venice)—a picturesque row of former fishermen’s houses lining the Regnitz River. Wooden balconies, colorful facades, and flower boxes make it one of the most charming views in Bavaria.

✔ Time to Explore & Shop – Enjoy some free time to browse Bamberg’s boutique shops, antique stores, or local breweries.

✔ Optional Visit to a Brewery or Beer Museum – Learn about Bamberg’s proud brewing heritage—this city is home to more breweries per square kilometer than anywhere else in the world!
