Munich Germany - Travel Channel

The best way to travel around Munich is the Tram (streetcar), bus and U-Bahn (subway) system. For connections to the suburbs use the S-Bahn. You can get individual, group, day and week tickets. The metro (U-Bahn) stations are signed with a white capital U on a blue background. To go to the suburbs or the airport, use the S-Bahn, signed with a white S on green background. All lines come together in a tunnel in central Munich. The Munich MVV website has maps of the U-Bahn and the S-Bahn network that shows the zones and rings, and maps of the ParkRide car parks attached to U-bahn stations (under the Pl??ne menu), as well as timetables. The official urban rail network map is indispensable. Single trips in a single zone such as the city center cost ???2.30, but the four-zone journey from the airport is a whopping ???9.20. Thus, if you arrive at the airport and intend to explore Munich by the public system, the best option is to buy a ???10.00 Gesamtnetz whole-network day ticket. This ticket will let you travel to and from the airport and all the S-Bahn and U-Bahn stops, as well as on the buses. A day ticket is worth buying if you plan to take more than two trips on the same day. It’s available in single person and group (Partner) versions, the latter for up to five adults traveling together, and is valid until 6AM the next morning. More at: www.travelchanneltv.com
