Munich and Bavaria

Munich's Old Town is easily walkable, allowing visitors to explore its charming streets. During the warm summer months, both locals and tourists seek refuge from the heat in the city's many shaded parks and traditional beer gardens. Come autumn, Munich transforms for Oktoberfest, a vibrant celebration that draws six million people to the fairgrounds just outside the city.  

For those seeking a luxurious stay, Munich offers a range of elegant hotels, perfect for immersing yourself in the city. Discover the opulence of the Residenz Palace on a private guided tour, or admire masterpieces at the renowned Alte Pinakothek. Alternatively, take a leisurely stroll through the charming streets, where high-end boutiques and designer shops offer a personalised shopping experience. 

During the winter months, Munich hosts one of Germany's oldest and most beloved Christmas markets, held in Marienplatz in front of the iconic Gothic Town Hall. The majestic Alps are within easy reach, and King Ludwig II of Bavaria built his famous castles amidst the lakes and mountains nearby, with the breathtaking Neuschwanstein Castle, located just under two hours away. Munich is also well-connected by rail, road, and air to other major cities in Germany and Central Europe, making it an ideal gateway for trips to the Black Forest and Austria.
