Day 2Â : Munich
Spend a full day in Munich, exploring the many famous sights and attractions of the Alpine city.
Explore the Marienplatz at the heart of the city and take in the city views from the top of the Town Hall. Uncover the legend behind the Teufelstritt (Devil's Footstep) or you might also like to take a tour of the renowned Deutsches Museum.
Of course, no visit to Munich is complete without a visit to a beer hall! The Hofbräuhaus am Platzl is undoubtedly the most famous of these, where you can sample some Weisswürste (white sausage) or Schweinshaxe (pork knuckle) with your Mass (litre glass) of beer.
