FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Munich Essentials for the Traveler Part 1: Munich Essentials - How to get there, where to find hotels, how to stay connected. Destination: Munich Germany Founded: June 14th, 1158 by Henry the Lion, Duke of Saxony. It's Germany's third largest city. Munich has the second biggest number of working people in Germany. Munich has 10 Universities as well as 45 Museums and Collections. Munich Germany Quick Facts Munich is located near the geographical center of the Southern German region of Bavaria. The population of Munich is 1.2 million people, about 280,000 of which are foreigners. About 80% of Munich was bombed by the Allies during World War II and subsequently rebuilt. Getting to Munich From Munich's airport, Franz Josef Strauss Flughafen, you can get to the Hauptbahnhof (the city's main train station) by S-Bahn #8. The bus station is near the train station, which is located on the northwest corner of the old city. [ map ] Languages While German is, of course, the main language used in Munich, English is widely spoken and taught in schools. Most restaurants in the town center offer English menus, many with quite interesting translations. It is easy to get by with little or no German language knowledge. Hotels (Note: 2002 prices cited) There are many hotels within walking distance of the main train station. The average price of a reasonable (or inexpensive) hotel with private bath and breakfast is around 100 €. We stayed at the Hotel Europäischer Hof for 99 €. The Hotel Monaco , nearby on Schillerstrauss, was voted the best two star hotel in Germany. Doubles at the Monaco start at 110 €. The recommended youth hostel is found on nearby Senefelderstrasse. Euro Youth Hotel is number 5 on the left side of the road coming from the train station. Restaurants If you find yourself in the tourist center near the Marienplatz, The Neues Rathaus (The New City Hall) has two "kellers", a winestaube and a beer cellar. The winestaube has music (accordion when we were there) starting at 5. The beer celler has good food, but don't be persuaded to sit in one of the empty rooms, enter the hall from the Diener Street entrance and try to find a table in the big, noisy, main room where Munichers eat. They do try to funnel English speaking people into dull, empty rooms. Tipping While service is included in the bill, generally waiters are tipped 5% for good service. Internet Access in Munich Internet access is right in the main train station. Just follow the signs to the Times Square Bistro. They charge .5 Euro for 5 minutes, a bit steep for Europe, but you can sit anywhere in front of a big LCD screen, order a beer and feel you're part of a bar scene rather than crammed into a steamy room full of beige boxes. The Bistro features a friendly owner, too. Just take a seat and start surfing--the time is recorded automatically. There are other internet services near the station on the south side of Bayer Strasse. Nudity and the English Garden Now here's a controversy for you--the tourist powers that be are worried that there aren't enough attractive natives baring it all in the middle of Munich. Yup, that's right, nudity was once a feature of designated areas of the Englischer Garten and the practice is fading--you used to be able to count on gawking at naked people downing liters of beer in the beer gardens. Perhaps you can apply to be a token Munich nudist and make money while vacationing--if I hear anything I'll let you know. Anyway, Munich's Englischer Garten is the largest in Europe and twice the size of Central Park. And you can still practice your nudity there while slugging down some strong beer. Other Sage Advice for Munich Germany Many museums in Munich are closed on Monday. Pick up a copy of "The Inside Track," the EurAide newsletter, at the ticketing office in the train station. The newsletter offers many tips on getting around and enjoying Munich. The EurAide office is near track 11, room three at the station. Get advice, find excursions, passes and travel deals there.

South America Travel

South America Travel - Abercrombie & Kent Africa & Egypt Antarctica Canal & River Cruising Europe Family Holidays North America India, Orient,    Australia & New Zealand Private Jets Small Ship Cruising South America & Galapagos Circumnavigation of South America Costa Rica, Panama & Mexico Ecuador & the Galapagos Islands Peru Chile, Argentina, Brazil & Uruguay The Royal Scotsman Train E-mail This Page Print This Page Print To PDF A&K On Site In South America Other companies often claim that the independent offices to whom they subcontract their business are “their own offices.” But only Abercrombie & Kent has its own network of local offices, staffed by full-time A&K experts, all around the globe. With five locations throughout South America, there are A&K offices working for you. Imagine the level of service that allows us to provide: A&K is always right at hand to ensure that your journey proceeds smoothly, shaped and guided by people who know and love your destination. The World’s Best Tour Directors While other companies often employ guides who are foreign to the destination you are visiting, A&K Tour Directors reside in and are passionate about the country in which they work. And they are hand-chosen for their knowledge, charm and expertise on a variety of subjects from archaeology, flora and wildlife to politics, geography and current affairs. For example, A&K’s Diana Hidalgo has been guiding visitors through her native Peru and neighboring countries for more than 25 years and brings unrivalled knowledge of Peru’s history, culture and people. By Invitation Only… Our highly experienced team offers you innovative insider’s access in the form of, for example, heralded guest speakers, specially hosted welcome dinners, and private wine and cheese tastings — events often not available to other travel companies and their guests. In Buenos Aires, for example, A&K guests travelling on our escorted programs enjoy a private behind-the-scenes visit to the luxurious 1908 opera house, Teatro Colón, where they also tour backstage and attend costume and stage design workshops not open to the general public. Private Transfers …Any Time Unlike many of its competitors, A&K provides its guests with private transfers whenever you choose to arrive or depart. This allows you the flexibility to arrive early or extend your stay beyond the dates or times of your group program. Most other tour operators offer to transfer you to and from the hotel from one specified group flight. But A&K gives you the comfort, luxury and freedom to plan your trip as you prefer. Any day, any time, day or night. In addition, in Santiago, Chile, A&K has special permission to meet you inside the Arrivals Hall, assisting you with passport, visa and other custom formalities. A More Personal Touch With an average of just 12 to 15 travellers (sometimes even less) and a maximum of 24 on our Connoisseurs Series, A&K groups are small enough to facilitate personal contact among group members, and undivided attention from your Tour Director. These smaller numbers also result in access to quaint restaurants off the beaten track, and discerning hotels that refuse large groups. While other company’s travellers are herded through the streets of Buenos Aires or the Inca relics of Cusco in groups of as many as 40, A&K guests feel as if they are travelling with a small collection of friends. Freedom To Choose Excellent meals ought to be a high point of every holiday. So it’s important to know not just how many meals are included in the cost of your program, but what kind. Must you eat from a set menu, or can you choose what you like? On many competitors’ trips, set menus are the inflexible rule. A&K offers…freedom. Sometimes we’ll take you to spectacular “white-tablecloth” restaurants, or casual waterside bistros. Sometimes you’ll set off on your own with a recommendation to a favorite tapas bar or tango club. In many locations, our popular À La Carte option allows you to dine at your hotel when, where and with whom you choose at A&K’s expense. Receive your Travel Catalogue! Download Now Receive By Mail
