Top 10 Munich [With Pull-Out Map & Guide]

I was born and raised in Germany, but moved to NY. However, I went back to Munich with my friends, and this is the perfect guide for your vacation. It has everything you need, and being German myself I can tell you that there is nothing missing in this little book!

Every time I go to Europe, I spend a great deal of time researching the sights I want to see, so a book like this is redundant for me. However I gave it to my son who was traveling with friends abroad, and they loved it. They thought they hit the high points of the city and went out of their way to thank me for it.

If you are planning a short trip to Munich this is a must have book. It covers excellent restaurants and wonderful places to stop and shop. The essential sights are all listed by region and are explained in enough detail for one to decide if they want to visit. If you are going for a longer period of time I would recommend a bigger guide but I would still get this one to walk around with. If you are travling around the Bavarian alps region you will need another travel guide in addition to this one as it stays focused on Munich

Guten tag! DK Publishing is the leader in "Top 10" travel guides and their Munich edition is no exception. Accurate and easy to read maps, detailed train/metro line guides, and top 10 lists for nearly everything the city has to offer. I especially enjoy reading their recommendations for how many hours to plan for a museum/point of interest visit. This came in especially handy when visiting the Deutsches Museum. I originally planned to spend three hours there and ended up dedicating nearly an entire day based on the guide. The day was enjoyable and I was able to browse through all the exhibits - which were amazing and I recommend this museum if you are visiting Munich! The guide is also handy to have as you take guided tours through the city. We all can't remember the names of the sights and the hundreds of facts behind them, but you can refer back later in your hotel or on your trip home. Don't miss the section in the back on commonly used words/phrases and their translations. This came in handy a few times! Top 10: Munich - 5 Stars Safe travels, Matthew Sherman
