A highlight of any visit to Germany, should you get the chance to go, is to explore the region in and around Munich. The city itself was named as the ‘World's Most Liveable City' in 2013, down to the high quality of life in the Bavarian state capital. Hiring a car in Munich gets you around the vast expanse of the city and will ensure you don't miss any of the wonderful green land, such as Schloss Nymphenburg. You can easily get to the many museums and galleries that are based in the centre, and if you're prepared to explore further afield, car hire from Munich will get you to the former Dachau Concentration Camp which is often described as a an unforgettable, historical experience.
If you're staying in the city centre, there's a fantastic array of things to see and do. Be sure to get the full market experience and stock up on gifts, crafts and local delicacies. The Viktualienmarkt is held in the centre of Munich daily, and is the city's most popular place for fresh food. In the lead up to Christmas, the Marienplatz transforms into the Christkindlmarkt, hosting Munich's Christmas market, perfect for gifts and ornaments of the season. Also based in the city is Circus Krone, one of the largest circuses in Europe. Rent a car from Munich to travel there and remember to book ahead of your trip to get good seats.
