Sport · GERMANY SPORTS EXPERIENCES
The good ones go weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: 12 germany sports experiences, what each includes, and where they differ.
Walk through Borussia Dortmund’s Signal Iduna Park independently on a marked route. See the South Stand, Yellow Wall, player tunnel, coaching area, mixed zone, and changing rooms when open. Scan QR codes for German and English club videos. The walk lasts about an hour for most people, costs $14, and is not wheelchair accessible.
“Amazing experience, so clean and so easy to tour around! Loved it :)”
See Munich’s main sights by bus before touring Allianz Arena with an English or German guide. You’ll visit the FC Bayern Museum, fan store, training grounds, locker room, press room, pitch, and player benches. Guides such as Melanie, Adrian, and Rainer have earned praise for clear city commentary and friendly service.
“Brilliant tour and delighted we could get down to the side if the pitch”
Start with panoramic Allianz Arena views from the North Stand, then follow FC Bayern from its 1900 founding through modern triumphs in Germany’s largest club museum. The app audio guide explains stadium details as you explore independently. This is not a full stadium tour, so locker rooms, the tunnel, pitch, and mixed zone are excluded.
“It’s very informative, more large signage in English and access to lift was a large barrier!”
Enter Berlin’s Olympiastadion for a self-guided visit across the stadium grounds, seating areas, and upper tier. See the full 74,475-seat bowl, read displays about German sport and the stadium’s difficult past, and reach the site easily by U-Bahn or S-Bahn. A guided tour is not included, but an upgrade may be available.
“The stadium access allowed us to freely wander around, sit in seats, visit the upper tier and take lots of photos at our own pace.”
Follow a German-speaking guide through Red Bull Arena Leipzig for 45 to 90 minutes. See the players’ tunnel, home changing room, press room, catacombs, pitch, VIP areas, and the highest public point. Special Night, Match Day, and Warm-Up tours add lights, screens, team preparation, or a close view of players training.
Visit the FC Bayern Museum at Allianz Arena for a self-guided look at the club’s past and present. You’ll see major trophies, giant video screens, decade-by-decade exhibits, and Hall of Fame tributes to Beckenbauer, Gerd Müller, Sepp Maier, Schweinsteiger, Thomas Müller, and Neuer. The museum is wheelchair accessible and your ticket is valid for one day.
“No existía la posibilidad de hacer el tour en la página de getbyour guide, pero al llegar a canjear nuestra visita al museo pudimos mejorarlo (ya que la UEFA había recogido lo del partido del día anterior más rápido de lo esperado). Encantados aunque sólo está disponible en alemán o inglés.”
Spend a half-day seeing Munich by double-decker bus before visiting the FC Bayern Museum and Allianz Arena. You get about 45 minutes at the museum and fan shop, followed by an English or German stadium tour with access to the trophy room, press room, dressing areas, player entrance, benches, and pitch edge. Guides such as Melanie and Wolfgang have earned especially strong praise.
“This was a wonderful, up close look at soccer life! My grandson loved it!! It was just enough time to see the museum and the tour of Allianz Stadium was amazing!”
At the Formula 1 Exhibition in Oberhausen, you move through seven rooms filled with original race cars, racing stories, exclusive interviews, and unseen footage. Interactive challenges add hands-on fun, while a Formula 1 simulator is available for an extra fee. Plan about 1.5 hours and expect the strongest appeal if you already follow the sport.
“Het was een leuke ervaring, de verwachte duur was 1 uur maar hebben ons uiteindelijk twee uur kunnen vermaken. Helaas was de communicatie in een anderen taal dan Duits erg beperkt door t personeel.”
EvoGolf Berlin brings indoor golf and bar time together in a private lounge near Central Station. You can play famous courses on Trackman, try mini-golf, Capture the Flag, or Bullseye, and relax with beer, wine, or cocktails. No golf experience is needed, and sessions run from one to four hours.
“This activity was really fun! Even if you’ve never played golf before, you can switch to the virtual games, which makes it easy for everyone to enjoy. We chose the 2-hour option, and it was the perfect amount of time. The competition was intense! Highly recommended!”
Follow a German-speaking guide behind the scenes at Hockenheimring for 90 minutes. Visit the paddock, pit lane, Race Control, South Grandstand or Baden-Württemberg Center, and the winner’s podium. Access can change with race programs, and part of the route may involve using your own car.
“Mega nette Leute. Interessante Tour für Rennsport interessierte und sehr kurzweilig. Preislich absolut in Ordnung. ich hätte mir nur gewünscht, dass im Vorfeld irgendwo gestanden hätte, dass man mit dem eigenen Auto unterwegs sein wird.”
Spend about five hours exploring Munich’s football story with guide Michael, from TSV 1860’s Grünwalder Stadion to Olympiapark, Allianz Arena, and Säbener Straße. Private transport keeps the route simple, while stadium and museum access depend on closures. Expect a personal tour for up to eight people, with admission fees paid separately.
“Michael has a lot of info and is an amazing story teller.”
Take on a 45-minute Grand Prix 30 at Kart & Eventcenter am Yachthafen in Wörth am Rhein. You get 8 minutes of qualifying, then either 30 indoor laps or 23 laps on the indoor and outdoor circuit, depending on weather.
