Munich Mailbag - Your questions answered

This page is where I attempt to answer readers’ questions about all things Munich and Bavaria related. In the past I haven’t bothered to log all of them on this page but instead just replied with a personal message.
Your questions, though, are a great help to other travellers so I’ll endeavor to add them all here linked to their own individual page from now on.

Please send your questions to stuartadmin@destination-munich.com and don't forget to include your first name and country you're from. If you have anything to add to the answer, you can do so in the comments box at the bottom of each page.

So, on with the show!
