Riding the Wave: Munich Lifestyle in the English Garden
♡ Save


Join us to discover Munich’s wild side in the English Garden! Explore green escapes, winter surfing, and local vibes, ending in one of the city’s most beautiful beer gardens. Experience Munich like a true local!
On this tour through the English Garden, we experience all these facets of the Munich lifestyle. The English Garden is one of the largest inner-city parks in the world, laid out in the 18th century, and is today a lively meeting place for those seeking relaxation, for sports enthusiasts, and for culture lovers. On our tour, we explore the history and development of the park - from its initial planning to its modern character.
At the same time, we immerse ourselves in the world of Munich's surfers. At the famous Eisbach wave, an artificial standing wave in the English Garden, surfers have been riding the waves on this side arm of the Isar for decades. Sports enthusiasts from around the world gather here to experience the unique blend of white water and urban flair. Join us on a tour that showcases Munich from its most authentic side: green, lively, modern, and surprisingly wild.
During the tour, we see, among other things: - The famous Eisbach waves and their surfers. - The Monopteros and other landmark buildings in the park. - The extensive green spaces and idyllic streams of the English Garden. - The Chinese Tower with its popular beer garden.
