I was born in Timisoara, spent my childhood there and also attended school there
I completed my studies in Germany and have my life there. Nevertheless, I always like to return to my birthplace, for professional as well as for private reasons.
Because of my background, during the tour I can therefore provide and combine an outsider’s view with a special insider perspective from my childhood and family traditions.
The city tour is aimed at first time visitors to the city who want to get an overview of the main sights. The tour is also ideal for Timisoara residents who have not lived in the city for long. It will also be of interest to former Timisoara residents who have emigrated, and now wish to visit their city of origin again during this special occasion of the Capital of Culture year and get to know it even better. Whatever the reason, I hope you will find the tour enjoyable and informative.
Our guided tour will be available virtually at www.owntowntour.com. In addition, the tour documents can also be purchased as a glossy printed version, in a nicely packaged gift box, in either XS (business card) format or XL (book) format. The stations display QR codes in both formats, which can be accessed during the city tour. The QR codes are linked to an audio tour guide in several languages with the texts on the individual sights, so they can be called up individually. I also offer this as a guided walking tour, by appointment.
The tour leads to the most important sights of the former fortress and today's city centre, but also offers insight into other districts via stops in the suburbs of Josefstadt and Elisabethstadt.
Given the multicultural tradition of Timisoara, the city tour is offered in the languages of its inhabitants: Romanian, German and Hungarian, as well as in English for international visitors.
With a song in our heart and happy feet, let’s be on our way to Timisoara. My most important goal is not only to accurately inform the users of the city tour, but also to “infect” them with my love and enthusiasm for Timisoara.
