Rob de Bie Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I'll go on holiday near Innsbruck (Austria) this month, and I'm planning to travel around a bit to visit museums and other interesting places. I expect to travel mostly north in the direction of Munich. So far I've identified: - Deutsches Museum Flugwerft Schleissheim, close to Munich (150 km) - BMW World, in Munich (150 km) - Starfighter Museum in Niederalteich (300 km) From the above you can see that my main interests are planes and cars 🙂 If you have any suggestions, please post them!

dnl42 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Don't miss the Deutches Museum in Munich! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 What a coincidence, I’ll be in Munich early Nov.  I had hoped to make it to Berchtesgaden and the nearby salt mine but don’t see any tours available (I won’t have a car this time).  Any info on whether their are any tours running in this time frame (or  if I can get there on public transportation) would be much appreciated! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It an impressive facilty, especially the high-gradient bus ride and the elevator, and the sight at the top is awesome. But it was very, very busy in mid-summer. I came by car back then, but a quick search shows that there's a rail connection.

Rob  Try getting as close as possible to the city with your car and then sneak in with public transportation! 😉   HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob If you can get to the BMW Museum, you can get to the Deutsches Museum via subway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks! Thank Hajo too 🙂  Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 I've got an open day during the week I'm there. Thinking about a day trip to either Regensburg or Nuremberg.  Anyone have a preference?   Regards,  John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alternative 4 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 In Munich I would visit the Hofbrauhaus, the beer and food are good (but the service sucks). it is very touristy but worth a visit. There will be other nice places to eat too. The Bavarian's do this thing with a pork hock/knuckle where they roast it over a rotisserie, it's magic.  My other recommendation is to just enjoy the countryside. Austria is beautiful.
