Sights on the Nymphenburg & Olympiapark Tour

The Nymphenburg & Olympiapark tour starts at the Hauptbahnhof (H1). In fifteen minutes, we reach Rotkreuzplatz. Starting here, explore the popular and centrally located district of Neuhausen (H8). If you don’t want to get off at Nymphenburg and the Olympiapark, it’s best to find a seat on the upper deck of our bus on sunny days. Enjoy the view of two of Munich’s tourist highlights while listening to the competent explanations of both areas thanks to the audio guide.

We reach Nymphenburg Castle (H9) half an hour after starting our tour. Stroll through the lush castle grounds or take a guided tour of this magnificent Baroque gem. Don’t confuse Nymphenburg Castle with Amalienburg Castle, which is also located in the expansive green park with water fountain. Take a souvenir photo under the tree of “Eternal Love,” make a detour to the Geranium House or the Botanische Garten, or satisfy your thirst for knowledge at the Museum Mensch und Natur or the BIOTOPIA Lab.

We’ll let you off at the parking deck at the Olympiaturm a quarter of an hour later, so you can stretch your legs. In summer, the Tollwood Festival takes place here with organic gastronomy, an arts and crafts market and top-class concerts. Originally, the Olympiapark (H10) was created for the 1972 Summer Olympics – with an indoor swimming pool, lake, sports halls, Olympic Stadium and the Olympic Tower. Today, the grounds host major music events and shows, as well as sporting events such as ice hockey games and bicycle races. Skatepark, Olympic Village and a memorial plaque for the attacks on Israelite athletes are located on the northern side of the Georg-Brauchle-Ring.

Incidentally, the car manufacturer BMW has not only opened its exhibition center BMW Welt here, but also a futuristic car and motorcycle museum in the BMW Museum. Remember well where the red double-decker bus stops – the way to the main station on foot is long – and there are several parking lots/parking decks around the Olympiapark. We will pick you up at the parking deck at the Olympic Tower.
