8-Day Business Trip Itinerary in Munich

Arrival and check-in

After landing, allow 1–2 hours for the airport transfer and hotel check-in in central Munich. The S-Bahn from Munich Airport to the city centre usually takes around 40–45 minutes; check the day’s service before setting out, and take a taxi or pre-booked transfer if you have bulky luggage or a late arrival. Keep the afternoon light so you can settle in before your business schedule begins.

Afternoon in the Altstadt

Take an easy 45-minute orientation walk around Marienplatz, Munich’s historic central square. Look up at the Neues Rathaus and its Glockenspiel; performances are generally scheduled at 11 a.m. and noon, with an additional 5 p.m. performance in summer, so don’t plan around one on an October arrival afternoon. From the square, it’s a short walk to Viktualienmarkt. Browse the stalls and have an informal early meal here—allow about an hour and budget €15–25 per person. Market stall hours vary, and many close by late afternoon, so head over promptly after check-in.

Evening

Walk a few minutes from the market to Augustiner am Dom for a traditional Bavarian dinner. Allow 1–1.5 hours and budget approximately €25–40 per person. It’s a relaxed first-night choice close to the city centre; check current opening hours and reserve if you arrive during a busy dinner period.

Morning — Business meetings

Attend the scheduled business meetings at the venue listed in your invitation. Allow time for local travel and check the venue’s address and any visitor or security requirements in advance; since it is Saturday, confirm that the meeting schedule and building access are as arranged.

Lunch — Altstadt

Take a one-hour lunch break at Café Luitpold on Brienner Straße, a traditional café in the city centre. Budget around €20–35 per person.

Afternoon and evening — Meetings and dinner

Return to the invitation-listed venue for your afternoon meetings, leaving a little buffer for the journey back. Afterward, head to Hofbräuhaus München at Platzl for dinner in its historic beer hall; allow 1–1.5 hours and budget around €20–35 per person. It is a popular spot, so expect a lively atmosphere and possible waits at busy times. Check current opening hours before setting out, and use the U-Bahn or a taxi to reach Altstadt from your meeting venue.

Morning — Business meetings

Attend the scheduled meetings at the venue named in your business invitation. As Sunday, 25 October, is outside normal business hours for many offices, confirm the meeting time, building access and any visitor registration with your host in advance.

Evening — Dinner by the lake

Finish at Seehaus im Englischen Garten, beside Kleinhesseloher See, for dinner. Allow 1–1.5 hours and budget approximately €30–50 per person. As autumn evenings can be chilly, reserve ahead if you’d like an indoor table, and check the restaurant’s current hours before setting out.

Afternoon and early evening — Meetings and a walk

Return to the invitation-listed venue to complete your afternoon meetings. Afterwards, take an early-evening walk around the Bavaria Statue and Theresienwiese.
