Munich Day Trip

Munich Tours

Whether you spend your time in Munich enjoying traditional sausages, drinking famous Munich brew or touring some of the castels that make Munich and Germany so interesting, you are bound to have an incredible experience in Munich.  Munich day trips can involve all the afore mentioned attractions, as well as time spent strolling the historic streets and enjoying the excellent museums.


Karlsplatz


Karlsplatz is the name for the district that makes up most of the city center of Munich.  This is an excellent place to start Munich day trips and Munich tours.  A long line of stores, an area zoned for pedestrians, makes up one of the best places to shop for all things German in Munich.  The zone leads directly to the Marienplatz square, a major hangout for tourists.  A Glockenspiel and the Old Town Hall await travelers here in the square, as well as some great places to enjoy a traditional German lunch of sausages and beer.  Spend the afternoon and evening visiting the Alte Pinakothek and the Deutsches Musuem before checking out some more of the local brew scene at one of the local Bavarian pubs in downtown Munich.


Schwabing/Maxvorstadt


Schwabing is the University District of Munich, and is often considered to be one of the more upscale neighborhoods in Munich.  Munich day trips and Munich tours through Schwabing offer views of some excellent theaters, museums, and of course the university itself.  First head to the Englisher Garten located in the district, an enormous park which dates to 1789.  Spend time walking, biking, having lunch or even nude sun bathing in the park.  Also in the area are the Alte Pinakothek, Neue Pinakothek, Glyptothek, and Antikensammlung; important art works that can all be viewed in this diverse district of Munich.  If you have time left after viewing all of the action, spend time in one of the popular beer gardens that continue to make this section of Munich popular.  Munich tours and Munich trips through the area can also end up at one of the incredibly popular discos in the university district, where a traveler can dance the night away.


Day Tours from Munich


Munich is surrounded on just about all sides by an expanse of mountains, lakes and historical towns just waiting to be discovered on Munich trips and day tours from Munich.  Popular day tours from Munich include a drive to the Five Lakes Region, where tourists can enjoy swimming, biking, hiking and a whole host of outdoor sports and activities.  The town of Bad Tolz is yet another popular drive from the city for Munich trips, where weary legs can find a rest in one of the many excellent spas located in the town.  Medieval towns and castles are also popular destinations for a trip from Munich for the day.
