Airport and ground transportation

Munich International Airport europeforvisitors.com
Europe's 8th largest airport is in the heart of the most popular German tourist region. It's also a gateway to Austria's leading ski areas. (My article tells how to reach the city from MUC.)

München Airport Center europeforvisitors.com
Eat, drink, shop, find travel bargains, get medical treatment, or drink a beer in Europe's largest covered open-air space without leaving the airport.

Tips on traveling in Germany:

If you plan to drive in Germany, read my articles on driving in Europe and car rentals: when to rent, when to lease. For train travel, consider an international or German rail pass from our partner, Rail Europe. (You can even get passes that combine rail travel with a rental car.)

Local transportation

MVV
The Munich public transit network's site is mostly in German, but the journey planner doesn't require translation.
