Has anyone been to Munich recently? Looking for the latest intel.

Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use

I was there a while back and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.

Trying to decide between this and Thailand.

Cheers

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

Word of caution — watch out for taxi scams at the airport. Other than that, great destination.

Did you use local sites or find girls at the hotel?

Quick question — how was the hotel security?

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.
