Is it safe for American girls (in their 20s) to travel to Munich, Germany? |
Travel Info We will be spending about 2.5 days in Munich during July. Planning on going to Dachau and the Neuschwanstein Castle. Travel Tips Munich is a WONDERFUL city. You will LOVE it. Plus, it's the safest city in Germany. The punishments there are twice as steep as they are anywhere else in Germany. I was told this by a cab driver in the city, and to be honest, I FELT safe there. The people were very nice and helpful. There's a nice Croatian restaurant up on Dachauerstrasse, I HIGHLY recommend it. Also, you HAVE to go eat at the Hofbrauhaus. Don't feel shy there, just sit at any table that has seats available. If this is going to be your first time going to Neuschwanstein, you may want to invest in a good pair of walking shoes to go up there. It's a pretty steep hike. Or, you can take the carriage (it's five or six euro for the uphill trip, half that for the downhill trip), but it'll let you off at a point where you STILL have to walk uphill a fair distance, or the bus (which is cheaper than the carriage, and lets you off near St Mary's Bridge. There's a BEAUTIFUL view of the castle from there.). And if it's rainy or gloomy when you go to Dachau, it might freak you out a little. It freaked my husband and I both out. Also, while you're doing castles, it might be worth checking out the Linderhof. I liked it MUCH better than Neuschwanstein. Source(s): Went to Munich just a week ago, and have been living in Germany the last nearly three years. Other Travel Tips If you are smart about how you travel then you will be fine. Just don't put yourself in any uncertain situations...and make sure you have a backup plan if something goes wrong Have fun! stick with your group and avoid night life and heavy drinking. I loved Munich. It's a great city to visit and has wonderful bike lanes if you enjoying cycling. You will be surprised to find that there is a statue of George Washington there. (You could have knocked me over with a feather.) I found it clean and safe and the people were lovely. I can't tell you about Dachau or the castle as I didn't visit there. relatively it should be. but becarful aboutthe type of people you meet, and don't be to trusting. many native people in other countries think americans are idiots and will try to take advantage of tourists. No problem. Germany, particularly Bavaria, is quite safe. However, don't be stupid. There are idiots everywhere. |
