Big Bus: Munich Sightseeing Bus

Routes and Stops

Thanks to the Munich sightseeing bus, Big Bus, you'll be able to enjoy a unique perspective of the German city. It has two routes and different stops at the must-see places and attractions of Munich. You'll have the opportunity to pass by sights such as the Marienplatz, Stachus, the Nymphenburg Palace and the Olympiapark.

This double-decker convertible vehicle will allow you to tour the city at your own pace, hopping on and off at any of the stops as many times as you like. Also, during the route, you'll enjoy commentaries recorded in English.

Here are the most important places on the two Munich Big Bus routes:

• Green Line: passes important places such as Karlsplatz, Odeonsplatz, the Eisbach River, the Deutsches Museum, Marienplatz or Max-Joseph-Platz.
• Orange Line: starts at Karlsplatz and stops at the Nymphenburg Palace, Olympiapark/ BMW Welt & Museum and Schwabing.
