New years at munich My friends and I are going to be in Munich for the New Year, and we plan to travel on January 1st to nearby cities and places.

Venice-Munich(direct train) or Venice-Villach-Salzburg-Munich train -> how different are the views? I was planning to take the Venice-Munich direct day train and I heard people say the views are amazing. However, prices are significantly more expensive (double) than the Venice-Villach-Salzburg-Munich (2 transfers) route. How similar/different are the views between these routes? Does the Venice-Village-Salzburg-Munich route also have nice view…

Torn between Munich or Zurich/Bern. How do they compare? Travelling in September and planned to stop buy Munich (one night only) and then noticed that Zurich or Bern are pretty much in route and could replace Munich with one of those two. Is there a “clear winner” between these? I don’t have much time for museums and activities and I just wanted the best place where I could sightsee by just walking ar…

Metallica in Munich These dudes have nothing to prove and they go out and do this. In their 60’s, bleeding, soaking wet and melting faces. I’m not even that big of a Metallica fan but this blew me away. F’ing legends!! Metallica in Munich submitted by /u/grandchester

Vienna and Bratislava or Munich and Innsbruck? I’m arranging a budget trip for January and torn between two options. I’m hoping to get some insights from those who have been to either or both destinations. Option 1: Vienna & Bratislava I’ve heard Vienna is breathtaking, with its stunning architecture, rich history, and vibrant culture. Plus, I’m intrigued by the idea of hopping over to Brati…

Fly to Munich, Road Trips to Innsbruck and then what? Americans looking to get out of the country for the first time since Thailand in 2017. Would like to do some skiing in the alps in January. Seems like the base of the trip idea is fly into Munich and rent a car and drive to Innsbruck for skiing. Very much open to train, just need to do more research on options. I figure we’ll have 7 days not i…

I could just book from google searches, but these are the kinds of thing I really want to be sure I have a captivating, historically accurate and educational experience with. Really want to be sure I do them right. That all being said, has anyon…

Recommendations- where to stop between Florence and Munich? I am planning a trip with a lot of family members for next year. We have a credit for a villa in Tuscany because we put a deposit on it for our 2020 wedding. Since that obviously got cancelled, the owners were nice enough to let us use our deposit for a later time, so we are going to be using it in the fall next year. First, we are going to spen…

Munich layover I’m traveling in a few weeks from VIE to EWR with a layover in MUC. My layover is only 1 hour and I’m nervous that’s not enough time to do passport control and make my connection, especially with potential delays. I was thinking of calling Lufthansa to see if they can put me on an earlier flight from Vienna to Munich, but my tickets were booked …

A few days in Munich This month my wife and I visited München for a couple of days. I have to say, I’ve read quite a bit of good things about the city and was really impressed. It gave us the impression of a young, vibrant city. I really liked the buildings and the fact that most of them, at least around Marienplatz, had small statues either on the front or at the c…
