What I did in Munich: Visited BMW Museum Visited Olympic Park Liked around Mariaplatz Square Ate a traditional meal in Mariaplatz Visited and took a tour of Bayern-München Allianz Stadium I was there a day and a half total. It was very safe and clean, the people are friendly to help guide me for transportation, all the places I visited to I was satisfied. I’m not a Maylee car person but it was cool to see the BMW museum and they have free bathrooms WC:) The Olympic park was very pretty and has a little hike at a hill you can see great views from. I felt safe even getting off my bus at 2AM, but kept being aware of my surroundings. Hostels are about $20-$25 USD a night. I highly recommend Munich!!
Posted: March 21, 2025Great parks to visit and the summer is even better. I loved the boat place on the bridge (do not remember the name). Architecture and streets are great for all day strolling around. Plus Christmas markets are really getting you in the mood!
Posted: February 18, 2025I felt extremely safe, munich is a very safe city except for the Oktoberfest time because of all the tourists which are usually very drunk and act stupidly, other than that i felt very safe i took the U-ban (metro) alone everywhere. German food, in general, isn't that great. They have hood bread, tho. I recommend going to the BMW museum (if u like cars), the Olympia park, Marienplatz, Englischer Garten, Eisbachwelle (surfers wave), Hofgarten. And if u like hiking, there is Neuschwanstein castle and Marienbrücke (not exactly IN the city). If u want to experience the Oktoberfest vibes but don't like the crowds (which there are a lot of) (it's very overcrowded), i recommend going in mid april and attending the Frühlingsfest which is the same but not as well known so less people and more fun. I think it lasts about 2 weeks.

The place is very nice, I recommend visiting the concentration camp. It is very easy to get there, you take 1 train and 1 bus. I felt pretty safe and before it got dark I returned to the hostel. I hope the information helped you

I was staying in Munich just for a couple of days, so I didn’t have a lot of time, but I like the city so much! I really enjoyed walking by the river. There are bicycles everywhere! Prices are kinda high comparing to Prague where I live, but that’s live. Oh, and I was staying in Wombat’s City Hostel which is an amazing place to stay!
Posted: August 7, 2024I visited for 2 weeks, fortunately I had free accommodation (visited a friend’s sister). Munich has many interesting museums to offer and many other places and attractions like surfing on the river in the middle of the city:) Overall I liked it but 2 weeks for me was a bit too much.

Great place in oktoberfest and christmas time. Lots to see and do in city and closeby areas. Worthy to travel in all seasons but flight tickets are generally too expensive. But definitely recommend at least one time experience during oktoberfest.

I was with some friends in Munich so I really feel safe. The new eve was really great with a lot of fireworks, some time too near me ahaha. I really like the history of the city through museum and to walk to the different place !
Posted: April 15, 2024I stayed at a Wombats City Hostel which turned out to be incredibly nice. I was with my friend and we shared the room with two other girls. I felt super safe most of the time. However, I always felt a bit wary at night, especially when venturing down dimly lit streets, even though there were two of us. The people were really friendly. Surprisingly, there wasn't much to do on Sundays after 4PM, but it was still delightful to walk around outside. It was much better than I expected! I highly recommend visiting.
Posted: February 23, 2024Munich has several of the best art museums I’ve ever been to. Great collections and great audio guide which is so very helpful for understanding the works. This is a city for art lovers! The cost of living is quite high though…

I feel like it is actually pretty safe in Munich. You just don’t feel the safest when you’re alone at night and walk down a dark alley. But that’s the same feeling in every town around the world tbh.

Most of the times Munich is a very safe city. Esspeccialy compared to others. I never got robbed or anything, but you should lock your bike. Public transport is also very safe, and Uber, and the drivers are helpful. Most of the times I drive home alone, nearly no problems ever. But beeing a girl and beeing way to drunk might be a problem at night.

Hey, I'm Marlene🌻 I enjoy being an old soul who reads or goes for a walk in the park. I write postcards to my loved ones when I'm somewhere. The idea that my friends and family know I'm thinking of them. I also love writing letters to my pen pals, because although writing letters is slow, it's also so much nicer and more lasting than a forgotten WhatsApp message. In general, I'm passionate about so many things! I love getting to know people and trying new things :) I'm always there when hiking, sightseeing, or enjoying a little fun drink! I really enjoy history, as well as cooking (I'm vegan).

Hi, I am Miriam What should I say? Haven't described myself in a long time :) I try... I like nature although I live in the city. Especially lakes and woods. Doing music with other people is really a great way to communicate without words. I am dancing Forró. It's a brazilian dance. Therefore I often go to festivals in different places. Other from that I do different sports, like meeting people especially in nice places. Because often then there are also nice and open people 🙃 Sometimes I need time for myself. Then I watch series or I go for a hike. Or I try to read more. Which works sometimes better, sometimes less good 😊 So, that's it for the start.

Hi! I've traveled solo quite a bit and have had my own experiences with couchsurfing. I really appreciate that this platform is women-only, as it makes traveling feel more comfortable. With accommodation becoming more expensive these days, I'm open to hosting others and would be grateful if someone could host me on my trips. I currently live in a student residence with two female roommates. We have a simple but welcoming space :)
