- It is one of the most common questions I get on tours in Munich. How do we buy tickets for the trains? Or, how do we get to the airport. In this video, I show you how to buy a ticket using the machines and making your way down to the platforms. We see how to check the information boards and board a train. To finish off, you go for a little ride with me on a train. Enjoy and see you in Munich!
Thanks for this...brought back many memories as I lived in Munich back in the mid 1980’s...I’ve often said that Munich has one of the best public transport systems in the world!...not cheap...but comprehensive (and with a somewhat confusing fare structure...at least I felt it was back then)..with international travel at a virtual standstill atm I get my travel fix by watching videos such as yours..Grüsse aus Australien
Thanks for your feedback Terry, happy that it gave you a little nostalgia fix. Trust me, the fare system is still somewhat confusing.
My first daytrip to Munich was back in 2011. It took me a while to get used to the city's public transport system, but I lived close to Leipzig at that time and I've been working in Reit im Winkl, a small village in the Traunstein area. So it was a bit easier to understand how Munich's public transport works, with the zones and different lines. All I needed was a map like you've shown with all the lines and destinations. In 2014 I used Flixbus for the first time, so I had to get from Traunstein to Munich's central bus station, locatet at the s-Bahn station "Hackerbrücke". So I took the regional train to Munich east and the next s-Bahn to Hackerbrücke. (It's great that these stations are on the main branch ("Stammstrecke"), so there's a train every 2-3 minutes...)
Thanks for your contribution. It helps give visitors the confidence to use the transportation system..

So I purchased a roundtrip ticket for 3 on DB train to Salzburg but I'm not sure if I did indeed buy for 3 people. How do I check this?
Well, I also went to Salzburg one morning in 2019, but I purchased my ticket at a departament which a mister sold the passages. So, I'd like to ask you: roundtrip is a travel when you go and return at the same day? Because I only said to the man: "going and back" and he understood me. Thank you! Daniel from Rio de Janeiro.
Can I use German pass for S bahn?
Unfortunately not,only for intercity and regional trains.
