How much does a trip to Munich, Germany cost?

• Best alternative: S-Bahn lines S1 or S8 from the airport station beneath the terminal into central Munich (€13.30)
• Buy your ticket before boarding at the blue/white vending machines or the MVV app. Stamp it once in the red validation box on the platform before entering the train. Unstamped tickets are not valid and inspectors fine on the spot. Fine without a valid ticket: €60.
• Rounding up the bill is the norm. In sit-down restaurants 5 to 10 percent is appreciated, and a small tip for taxi drivers is fine. Tipping is not mandatory anywhere.
• Cover charges are not standard in Munich, though a small service charge may appear. Check that prices are shown on the menu before ordering; walk away if a menu has no prices, which occasionally happens near major sights.
• Use bank-attached ATMs and always choose to be charged in euros, declining the dynamic currency conversion offered on screen. Independent ATM machines in tourist areas often carry higher fees. Cards with contactless payment work widely across the city.
