Hey everyone, I hope you enjoy this week's video all about my former home city of Munich! As usual, there's more tips in the written version: happytowander.com/munich-travel-tips/ And you can follow me on Instagram here for real time travels and stories :) instagram.com/happytowander/ Be sure to chime in with any additional tips, by the way!! :)

@jeanmariezeyen111 3 месяца назад

little piece of advice - if you want to see most of munich : dont take the u-bahn or the s-bahn (unless strictly necessary) , because they are mostly underground, take the tram ! you almost get everywhere with it, and you see a lot of the city !

@eatsmylife_ 23 дня назад

Totally agree !! not only in Munich i guess (that i haven't visited yet 🥲) but i try to do that in most of my trips at towns with trams ❣

@andrelukin6364 4 месяца назад

I watched tons of videos about Munich and I am so happy I came across your video. Very useful info, thank you a lot! Going to Munich in April.

@ayenul 9 месяцев назад

I’ve been to Munich once before and don’t even have another trip planned yet (hoping for next fall!) but I’m saving this video for when I do plan bc it’s so dense with great information! Thank you for making this

@JustinHEMI05 5 месяцев назад

This is the best Munich video I've watched, thank you! I'm headed there first week of May and this was very informative. Saved for viewing again.

This was great! Heading to Munich for 3 days in September. Planning on checking out Oktoberfest one day and doing Munich things the rest! Very helpful video!!! (And I like how fast you talk lol…you can always pause and write down notes! And a 19 min video is way more appealing than a 25 min video…just saying!👌🍻) Thank you!!

@StefanSulistyo 9 месяцев назад

An addition to the dress tips: Afternoon or evening thunderstorms can happen any day in summer, even if it’s not in the daily forecast (caused by the geographic situation with the mountains close by in the south). It’s always a good idea to carry a small pocket umbrella and/or rain jacket you can stuff in your bag. Also watch rain radar apps towards the afternoon, the thunderstorms will usually form south west of the city and move in north east direction.

@jessied4210 2 месяца назад

Also, watch out on TrainPal price radar. Many ticket prices drop. I'm thinking about train card sales as well.

@karenrichey6074 2 месяца назад

@kirkmack1992 9 месяцев назад

Thank you, I am planning on going next year and so many people have said that Munich is a 2-3 day city, can't wait to watch this and learn so much about Munich

@HappytoWander 9 месяцев назад

Ahh I hope my video can change your mind!! You can definitely cover the main sights in 2-3 days but more time would be ideal if you want to get out of the city and see some of the gorgeous castles, lakes & mountains nearby :)

@kirkmack1992 9 месяцев назад

@@HappytoWander At the moment I'm thinking 2 days on Munich and 1 day at each of Neuschwanstein and Herrenchiemsee. The tip for the Bavarian Castle pass was brilliant made it so much more affordable 😌

@jennybueso6109 9 месяцев назад

Visiting as a tourist in November. It will be cold but I love the fall :) Hoping to visit some castles and Allianz arena, eat and visit museums, churches, and maybe hike

@accless510 8 месяцев назад

thanks for the informative video! what do you think about the 49 euro ticket? im travelling around bavaria like garmisch, nesuwenstein, rothenburg, etc

@melbling5748 9 месяцев назад

Minute 12:00 reminds me of their Jungschweinbraten, one that I will always remember of!

@tj2569 2 месяца назад

We have trip planned for this June and we have one free day and would like your opinion on visiting Nymphenburg Castle vs Munich Residenz. Thank you!

@billmitchell5805 9 месяцев назад

Great video, what is the best way to get to Neuschwanstein? Thanks

@TexasHighwayMan 9 месяцев назад

To be fair, while Memmingen airport is 90 minutes from Munich, the main Munich airport itself is 45 minutes from downtown.

@carlyc8600 9 месяцев назад

Thank you @HappytoWander! This is super helpful! Going to Germany in the next month and wondering if you have any tips for Baden Baden, Berlin, or Heidelberg?

@HappytoWander 9 месяцев назад

Yay so happy you found it helpful!!! I haven’t been to Baden Baden and I’ve only been to Heidelberg once BUT I do know Berlin quite well. Apart from the general Germany must-knows (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xf0byg9qO6o.htmlsi=pjNYcDlIyyOU_wVC), I haven’t written anything about it yet but here are some quick tips off the top of my head haha: - Berlin is quite big so definitely make a sightseeing plan according to neighbourhood as you’ll want to avoid doubling back - Some of the main tourist sights (eg Checkpoint Charlie) are quite underwhelming so lower your expectations haha. - Definitely go beyond Mitte to visit different neighbourhoods to get a better feel for the city - The Reichstag building is REALLY cool (and free) but you need to book a ticket in advance so try to do that ASAP - There are tons of different unique museums/attractions in Berlin for every interest so don’t feel pressured to see the most famous museums just because they’re well known! Pick what you’re personally most interested in. I loved the Computer Games Museum for instance - food-wise, currywurst & Döner are a must, but Berlin has an amazing international and vegan food scene so you’re really spoiled for choice! - If you plan to go out, know that “going out” culture in Berlin is really casual. You can leave the high heels and club dresses at home 💃🏻 - Lastly, I’d recommend reading up on the history of Berlin before you go so you can understand the historical context of the main sights/have a bit of knowledge when you visit museums. Makes things way more interesting! Hope that helps. Depending on when you go, I may have a Berlin guide prepped by then but if not, have an amazing trip and enjoy 🫶

@carlyc8600 9 месяцев назад

❤ thank you so much for all this help! We are so excited and really used your videos for so much help in planning!

@mrkurtjacob 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for this. Wasn't aware that you have to validate train tickets so thanks for this, very useful! We are going in November and aim to visit Olympic Park, Allianz Arena and city centre. We are staying next to Central Station. What is the best ticket for transport?

@juguy2110 7 месяцев назад

Very well done, you really notice that you live in munich for quite some time! Tip from a local for the beer enthusiasts: The quality of most of the "big 6" of the breweries is kinda bad actually. I mean if its tap you can drink it (augustiner and hacker pschorr are the best imo, hofbräu and löwenbräu are disgusting) but when it comes to bottled beer i would highly recommend the smaller breweries, like Giesinger, Haderner of Tillmanns from munich or maxlrainer or mooser liesl from the region. Also giesinger is sold in more and more bars in munich and that is for a reason.

@jeanmariezeyen111 3 месяца назад

right ! giesinger makes a really great weissbier...and so does the "airbräu" at the airport ! forget about paulaner end franziskaner..augustiner is ok !

@sharonpapkin8574 9 месяцев назад

Well i can tell that you local based on the fact you didn't recommend to go for a beer in hofbrau on marienplaz the biggest tourist trap 😂

@cindyng1004 5 месяцев назад

hi Happy to Wander - im planning to buy the 49 Euro D pass in my coming trip to germany - its basically valid for all the transportation other than the express regional trains. Just want to check quickly i can just hop on the S bahn from the airport in munich to the city centre right?

@liewpg2266 8 месяцев назад

Is there an options that we can use a contactless payment for public transport?

@alejandrotobar737 5 месяцев назад

Going to Munich in February late February to be exact, what do yall think weather mostly will be like

@ronineditor9920 3 месяца назад

Do you or anyone know if there are trains that go directly from the airport to Salzburg? It's looking like we would go into town, then catch a train to Salzburg. Thanks!

@robertolarreal7293 5 месяцев назад

@phritza 8 месяцев назад

I'm planning to visit Munich and during my trip I want to take a day trip to the Alps down south. Have you been there before? How accessible is it by train? Do I need to worry about ticks?

@tobi7777 8 месяцев назад

It’s very good accessible by train in different directions south to the Alpes. No worries with tickets, there is no ticket limit. If you want to avoid big crowds on the weekends, take an early train! Best time for hiking now in fall. You gonna love it

@jessied4210 2 месяца назад

If you booked through TrainPal, it's a smooth process with guarantees. So attached by their discounts and train cards.

@patrickferdinand1901 3 месяца назад

Im traveling for munich for a concert, my hotel is 20 min walking from the place of the gig, would you say its safe to walk at night? xd sorry my first solo trip

@Annie__230 3 месяца назад

I’m going solo for a concert too and asked the same thing in a travel group on Facebook, apparently Munich is extreamly safe. If you have already been let me know if you got on.

@sapphoshanks165 2 месяца назад

i love how fast you talk!!!

@tomholmes5502 8 месяцев назад

We just got back and had a great time! Do us Texans a favor and slow down a little. We listen SLOWLY. 😊

@malvoyin7613 5 месяцев назад

for MVG tickets, how do you validate them?

@Annie__230 3 месяца назад

Saw this on trip advisor “Train tickets, that is, DB tickets, never have to be validated. However, you have to enter your name(s) on the Bayern Ticket. The ticket has blank lines for that, and you should enter the names before the departure of the train. The reason is to make it impossible to sell a used Bayern Ticket when you have arrived at your final destination and don't need it any more. An MVV single ticket or day ticket doesn't have to be validated either, afak. It is for a specific day. An MVV strip ticket needs to be validated, but I'd advise against buying those as you always seem a have a few strips left by the time you leave Munich, and for your next visit, they will have expired, as they expire when prices are raised.”

@PathfinderHistoryTravel 5 месяцев назад

Good info. Thanks. One constructive suggestion, try to grow beyond uptalk. You will sound more confident and listeners are growing tired of uptalk.

Click the cog icon, click playback speed, select 0.75x. I find her pace great though. Presenting at a conversational pace, or doing too much dramatic pausing is really annoying.

@ceciliagambettapa7811 7 месяцев назад

I just learned there's a feature to slow down. Click settings on the video screen and select playback speed. 0.75x worked well for me 😊

@bluebird66918 6 месяцев назад

Exactly, I feel the same. If you talk fast, why do you make the video to show people???

@Annie__230 3 месяца назад

I didn’t think she talked that fast, but did you know you can slow the video down to 0.75 if that’s easier for you?

@superioradvantage 2 месяца назад

Love your channel but you speak too fast. This isn’t a race. Would you talk to your friends as fast?Please slow down. Don’t you watch your videos before posting? Check out Nik at Away together he has a very good cadence. I think you have one of the best channels for travel but you need to take your time when describing the trip. If you’re rushed to put out a video you will put out a video and lose subscribers because it is not enjoyable to watch and frankly very stressful. I couldn’t make it to the end. Not good. What don’t you watch your videos, take one of them and film it over in a slower speed?
