How to get there from Spain. The plan starts in Munich: you arrive the day before. There are direct flights to Franz Josef Strauss airport (MUC) from Madrid, Barcelona, Málaga and other cities; the S-Bahn S1 or S8 drops you in the centre.

This is the Munich day that works best with children from six to twelve: a morning of aeroplanes, ships and experiments in the city's great science and technology museum, a long lunch under the chestnut trees of a Biergarten with swings and an afternoon of palace and park at Nymphenburg, where under-18s do not pay. Everything is done by S-Bahn and tram.

## How you get there from Spain

By air to Munich (MUC), with direct flights from Madrid, Barcelona, Málaga, Valencia, Seville, Bilbao, Alicante, Palma and the Canary Islands. The S-Bahn S1 or S8 takes you to the centre in about 40 minutes; the Airport-City-Day-Ticket for groups of up to five costs €32.60 and covers the whole family that day. The plan starts in the city, after a night in a hotel near the Isar or the main station.

## The day, hour by hour

9:00 · Deutsches Museum. On the Isar island, about ten minutes' walk from the Isartor stop. Open every day from 9:00 to 17:00 except eight a year. Adult admission €18, ages 6 to 17 €11, family €40, and free for under-6s. Demonstrations and guided tours are included: ask for the day's times at the entrance. Allow three and a half hours; under-12s must be with an adult.

12:45 · Lunch at the Augustiner-Keller. S-Bahn from Isartor to Hackerbrücke and a few minutes' walk along Arnulfstraße. If the weather is good, the Biergarten has 5,000 seats under a hundred or so chestnut trees, a self-service area where you can bring your own food and a playground. If it is closed, the restaurant is open all year: roast pork with potato dumpling (€17.90) or Käsespätzle (€14.50), and Kaiserschmarrn for dessert.

15:00 · Nymphenburg Palace and park. Tram 17 stops at Hopfenstraße, beside the Biergarten, and drops you at the Schloss Nymphenburg stop. The combined ticket costs €20 from April to 15 October (€16 in winter) and under-18s enter free. With children, more than the whole palace, the carriage museum and a walk in the park work well; the park is free and in summer is open until 21:30.

## If you have teenagers

Swap the palace for the afternoon in the English Garden and the Eisbach wave: they watch the surfing in the middle of the city and can wander at their own pace in the park.

## Cómo llegar

### Without a car
It is the most convenient: S-Bahn from the museum to the Biergarten and tram 17 to the palace. To return, the same 17 drops you at the main station.

### By car
Beside Nymphenburg there are about 450 free spaces, but in the centre parking is expensive. If you come by car, leave it at the hotel and use it only if you leave Munich.

## Consejos

### Start at 9:00
First thing the museum is quiet; from 11:00 the groups arrive.

### Check the Augustiner-Keller front page
Its website says each day whether the Biergarten is open or only the restaurant.

### Buy Nymphenburg online
The palace ticket comes with a time slot.

## Cuándo no ir

Going to Nymphenburg at 15:00 in winter: the palace closes at 16:00. From November to March, do the plan the other way round.
