I am looking for a grocery store in the town. I am staying at an apartment on Jakobsberg and Storchsgasse. Is there anything close?

I will be visiting Berchtesgaden in May 2013 and would like to hike with others who can speak some English. IS there anything planed or a group I can join?

This is the plan for the end of October this year. Is there any "must do" or "off the beaten path" things to do along the way? We will return to Frankfurt from Prague and we will have two weeks. Part of the reason we are in Frankfurt is to visit my boyfriend's family. Thank you, in advance, for you input!

We will be in Munich between Christmas and New Year's. Our rented apartment is near the corner of Prinzregentenstrasse and Ismaninger Strasse. Can anyone recommend places near there for food, particularly breakfasts and dinners? I'd like to go with a few close-by recommendations for any days we need something closer to "home." Also, is there a grocery/store market nearby where we might be able to pick up a few things to keep in the apartment for snacking or simple breakfasts? Thanks in advance! ~Erin

Can somebody explain how I can get from Munich to Memmingen airport? I found the last train from Munich at 11PM and it arrives to Memmingen train station at about 1AM. But nobody seem to know how to get to the airport from the train station at night.

Thank you for help!

Hi we will be going to Munich on 18-20th June and 23-25th June in Zurich. I heard a lot of people mentioned about going to shopping in Konstanz, Germany for good deals. I would like to know how we going there by Train? How long will the journey take? Which place is nearer to go? Munich or Zurich?

I'm taking dad (retiree) and three other newbies to Munich for either Oktoberfest weekend. Ideally, I'd like affordable hotel accommodations, reservations at a fest tent, and a (very) patient guide to handle a senior citizen and the million questions my group will likely throw at him/her. Since time is limited with Oktoberfest around the corner, I'm thinking it might be best to sign up for an all-inclusive tour package, but which one? I've only been able to find what looks like "frat party" tours so far. Any help is appreciated.

Is there possibility to find club where can i listen to this two music styles or here noone knows about this kind of music?

Hello everyone!!

I'm planning to go to the Oktoberfest this 2013, but I'm really really lost on this, hope you can give me a hand with all my very basic questions:

When is the best time to go to avoid craziness, if possible :)
What should I book in addition to hotel??
What are the so famous "tends"?
How much money should I expect to use? Mid range drinker
I've heard it gets too expensive, would it be worth to go after the festival to avoid that?

Thank you so much for any extra info you can provide!!!!

Cheers!!!

Finalizing the last leg of my Bavaria itenary and hope to get some views. I have finalized the places I am visiting, only checking the better route and where to spend the night given train timings. My route is from Munich to Fussen (will see Neuwanstein only) and day trip to Rothenburg (DIY city tour) and Wurzburg (the Residenz tour at 11 AM, explore the city and Marienburg Fortress).

I have recommendation it is easier to head to Wurzburg (instead of Rothenburg) from either Fussen. From Wurzburg I will head to Frankfurt airport to fly out (do not plan to see Frankfurt). On the last day my flight is at 10 PM so I aim to be at the Frankfurt airport by 7 PM and will depart to airport from Wurzburg latest by 5 PM.

Day 1 take morning train to Munich, arrive by 1 PM, check in / deposit luggage in hotel, quickly DIY walking tour. Overnight Munich. (Do not need suggestions on this day as have got a lot of forum reply on Munich express tour already). Looking for feedback specifically on Day 2 onwards (option A, B or C) or any better option is appreciated.

Option A
Day 2 day trip to Fussen, anticipate back by 6 / 7 PM, have the evening to maybe go to a beer garden... Overnight Munich.
Day 3 early morning check out take train to Rothenburg, deposit luggage in hotel, DIY walking tour, maybe at night for for watchman tour.... Overnight Rothenburg.
Day 4 early morning check out take train to Wurzburg, deposit luggage in train station, then see EXPRESS Wurzburg and head to Frankfurt airport
summary 2 night stay Munich, 1 night Rothenburg

Option B
Day 2 day trip to Fussen, anticipate back by 6 / 7 PM, have the evening to maybe go to a beer garden... Overnight Munich.
Day 3 early morning check out take train to Rothenburg, deposit luggage in train station, spend whole day.... take night train to Wurzburg (only 1 hour) Overnight Wurzburg.
Day 4 early morning see EXPRESS Wurzburg and head to Frankfurt airport
summary 2 night stay Munich, 1 night Wurzburg

Option C
Day 2 early morning check out, day trip to Fussen, deposit luggage at train station. Take night train to Wurzburg as easier to go to Wurzburg than Rothenburg from Fussen. Overnight Wurzburg.
Day 3 early morning take train (1 hour) to see EXPRESS Rothenburg, spend whole day.... take night train back to Wurzburg (only 1 hour) Overnight Wurzburg.
Day 4 early morning see EXPRESS Wurzburg and head to Frankfurt airport
summary 1 night stay Munich, 2 night Wurzburg

Which option is better? Or is there any better option? Thanks!

My husband and 18 yr old son are travelling to Munich and wherever this Christmas. We fly into Munich on the 22nd Dec and will have christmas eve dinner in Munich, as well as see the markets. As everything is then closed thought of leaving on the 25th.
Iam not sure where to go to next?
We are Australians but live in the middle east so have always had a warm Christmas.
I have found a place to stay at Oberaudorf, but have to book it for 5 nights.
Then I see Garmisch-Partenkirchen is a great place to visit but will only have 3 days left as we fly out on the 2nd Jan.
I see most places are already booked out as we need a 2 bed apt or similar .
Any suggestions on an itinerary/

does anyone know of a bus service or tour bus that would be better than the train?
