Practical for Guests, Consciously Close to the City
The meeting point at ASAM, Marienplatz 7, is central and well connected to the city's infrastructure. At the same time, the tourist information points out that the historical old town is only partially accessible. This makes the tour particularly interesting for guests seeking an authentic, short, and culturally-rich city visit.
