I stayed at The Tent Munich which operates during the summer months. It only cost 10€ a night and was the best hostel experience I've ever had! Met so many amazing people there and even ended up going on the do more travel with some of them! It's in a foresty area only 20mins from the main station with the tram which is just down the road. Honestly this hostel was the highlight of the trip. It has cheap food and beer as well as a bonfire where everyone gathers at night. Munich itself was amazing so many things to see and do lots of cool areas and museums. I did a free walking tour on my first day and met some cool people through that as well! A few of us also did a day trip to Neuschwanstein Castle which was definitely worth the early morning wake up. Munich is also a great base to go and visit Dauchau concentration camp which is definitely worth a visit, especially as it's free, and a tour is only 4€ which I also recommend but it's definitely very heavy stuff and we all felt very drained afterwards. Overall I met so many amazing people in munich and going just before October fest is great because it's not too crazy or expensive yet.
Posted: November 27, 2023Experienced: August, 2023Overall, it was an amazing experience. I currently live here, but there’s a lot you can do in this city. From checking out all the different (and so many) museums, to visiting plenty of seriously delicious restaurants, to bar hopping, and so it goes. Only thing I’d say is that Munich in itself can be a little bit expensive so probably not the best idea if you’re deciding on a low budget travel unless you’re staying with someone or Couchsurf or stay at a cheap hostel. Try not to order taxis or Ubers because they can be very expensive and the public transportation works great, just bear in mind at a certain time at night (around 1 am) u-bahns (trains) stop working and then you’ll either need to take a tram or bus. When it comes to safety, I’ve never felt fear while walking alone or being alone at night/day, I’d give it a 10/10 in regards to that. Some places that you must check out are the city center of course, this would be Marienplatz and Odeonsplatz, Universität comes next which would be the university area (the famous LMU) plenty of bars and restaurants. Glockenbachviertel is also known for its lovely LGBT+ community and party scene. Englischer garten is a must, if you’re coming in summer you cannot miss out on this place. Munich residenz, alte pinakothek and alte pinakothek Der moderne are some of the museums you can visit but there are so many and on Sundays (as of now) you can pay 1 euro to enter some of the museums. In summary there’s a lot you can do in this beautiful city, and if you’re more into nature you can also go on day trips from Munich, to Tegernsee, ammersee, other cities like ingoldstadt (50 min train ride), regensburg, and so on.
Posted: November 20, 2023Munich was a great city to start for my first solo travelling experience! I stayed in a hostel which was social and had a bar, I chatted to the people in my dorm room and we met other people at the bar and went out. It was great fun! I did free walking tours and shopped at Aldi for cheap breakfasts so I didn't spend too much money.
Posted: November 18, 2023Experienced: November, 2017It was a nice trip to Munich, Germany in 2017. The public transport is quite convenient to the viewpoints, highly recommend the city free tour, usually starting at the square of the famous church, and in the market you can find a lot of foods. Also, I personally like the English Garden which consists of different types of architectures inside.
Posted: November 13, 2023Experienced: September, 2017My first solo trip was to Munich and I absolutely loved it. I felt very safe there (despite not speaking much German) and was mesmerized by the stunning architecture, palaces, and art museums.
Posted: October 18, 2023Munich is such a beautiful city and I felt very safe. I was there for two nights and was able to finish most of the sights. I recommend visiting if you are looking for a short trip or passing by. Also, all the museums cost only 1 euro on Sundays.

A quite nice city. Very clean, human are kind but not really open. Things there are expensive. But like Bayerischen Food are really good. I stayed in my aunt’s house and the city is really quiet. A conservative city too.
Posted: August 6, 2023Been to Munich and loved it. Stayed near the Central station and never had an issue there but I didn't go out late at night.
Posted: April 1, 2023Things to do: - Wander around Marienplatz - Visit the BMW Museum - Watch surfers at Eisbachwelle - Stroll through the English Garden - Visit Frauenkirche - Visit Hofgarten Safety: I felt perfectly safe as a female solo traveller. Recommendations: Munich is such a lovely city! Adorable architecture, music in the air, a definite beer culture!
Posted: September 17, 2022Things to do: - Visit Nymphenburg Palace - Visit the Hofgarten - Explore Odeonsplatz - Visit Frauenkirche - Wander around Marienplatz Safety: I felt completely safe everywhere I went. Recommendations: Munich is one of my favorite European cities and very easy to get around.
Posted: September 10, 2022Munich is safe for women no crime at all. Marienplatz great place for shopping. A lot of expats around and so easy to find a job! You will love the lakes around and you can learn skiing or snowboarding in the winter sp many places for skiing and hiking around Munich. Also by train you can be in Austria in couple of hours.
