Driving in Munich is generally low key and easy, as the main roadways are clearly marked and safe. In 2008, the city of Munich established a "low emission zone", thus all of our vehicles provide the necessary sticker to prove that they meet emission standards. There are several main roads that lead to Munich. The Autobahn 8, A8, runs from Stuttgart-Munich and the A9 between Nuernberg and Munich, which is also considered to be one of the busier roads in the area. To avoid congestion at rush hour, there are smaller roadways that are known as B service roads that can be taken. When driving near or around the urban center there are several parking garages available, the biggest one located at the Munich Hauptbahnhof.

Munich is a winter and Christmas wonderland. The Christmas market on Marienplatz will be crowded, but it is a must-see. If you are into playing or watching the ice game of curling, check out the track in front of the Nymphenburg Palace. During Advent, hop aboard the Christmas tram (after buying a ticket!) to escape the cold. If the weather gets to be too cold, there are many spas in Munich, or you can also go to the Botanical Gardens. Take a 2-hour drive from the city to the highest mountain in Germany, the Zugspitze. Once there you can go hiking or skiing and enjoy the views. The roads within Munich can be traversed in a luxury sedan, but if heading out of the city, an SUV or 4-wheel-drive vehicle with winter tires is recommended. And be sure to check the availability of ski racks.
