Looking for cheap tours

Many Russians are looking forward to their vacation to embark on their dream journey. And what a dream trip is - for many it is, of course, not only a first-class vacation in a desired place, but also inexpensive and economical! Indeed, everyone wants to have a great time and pay as little money as possible. Do you think this is unrealistic? You are wrong!

Hot tours!

So, your choice is a cheap vacation ... What is it? Well, first of all, these are the well-known inexpensive last minute tours. If you take vouchers a few days before the start of the trip, then your vacation will require 1.5-2 times less money. Such economy tours are preferred today by thousands of Russians. Those who are easy-going, who are not afraid of quick fees, and are attracted by the prospect of significant savings. You can join their ranks, just remember that a burning inexpensive vacation in 2017 is also an indispensable presence in your hands of all the documents necessary for a trip. This is especially true when traveling abroad. We offer you last minute deals to UAE, Tunisia, Bulgaria, Italy, Goa, France and many other countries of the world.

Early booking will help you save a lot!

Another option for an economical vacation is the opposite of burning cheap vouchers. We are talking about early booking of tours. To book tours a few months in advance is to get a guaranteed vacation at prices 5-15% lower in a pre-selected place. Early booking of tours can save you significant money. Today this type of purchase of tours is extremely popular in Europe and is gaining popularity among Russian travel lovers.

Of course, last minute deals and early booking tours can be classified as inexpensive. They significantly save money, allowing you to relax on a grand scale. But there are also such concepts as economical or budget vacations. For many experienced Soviet-style tourists, this is a trip to nature with a tent, stewed meat and cereals. But still we meant something else. For example, vacation packages abroad in an inexpensive hotel. For example, many Russians prefer to buy tours to Thailand, in hotels of categories 2 - 3 stars, in order to save on accommodation, while receiving one hundred percent of vivid emotions from staying in the desired country.

I have already written about what is interesting about Munich itself. Therefore, today I will not repeat myself and will focus exclusively on logistics issues. In this article, we will analyze how to get to Munich from Minsk and Moscow, and also talk about which transport is best to use on such a trip.

Ready? Then let's get started!

How to get to Munich directly from Moscow

Let's start with the fact that the capital of Bavaria has its own airport, where planes of many different companies fly from Moscow and some other cities of Russia. In particular, you can get to Germany by flights of companies S7, Aeroflot, UTairas well as some other carriers.

Travel time in this case, it will take about 3 hours.

Ticket prices fluctuates depending on the day of the week and the specific month. As a rule, tickets in this direction cost from 8 to 11 thousand RUB for a round trip.

Check the exact price and buy a ticket is available on the Aviasales website.

How to get to Munich directly from Minsk

Unfortunately, there are no direct flights to Bavaria from the Belarusian capital. Therefore, if you fundamentally fly from Minsk airport, you will most likely have to fly with a change in Riga company flight AIR Baltic... If you choose this option, be sure to pay attention to the included baggage allowance. The Latvian airline usually includes only a small hand luggage (up to 8 kg) in the price.

Travel time in this case, it will take just over 4.5 hours (with all transfers).

Ticket prices: about 180 euros (for a round trip).

To buy a ticket and you can check the exact price on the Aviasales website. Keep in mind: the cost of plane tickets is constantly changing. This is normal.

Best option: low-cost airlines

With direct flights sorted out. Now on to the fun part. What is there to say at the very beginning. As I wrote above, Munich, of course, has its own airport. But flights of low-cost airlines fly from there only to some separate destinations (which in this case do not help us at all). Therefore, the best option would be to fly to the capital of Bavaria through the airports of nearby cities - Nuremberg or Memmingen. The latter is even often classified as Munchen-West airport (therefore, the connection between the two cities is excellent).

So ... Now let's talk about everything in order.

How to get to Munich via Nuremberg (for Belarusians)

One of the streets in the old part of Nuremberg.

This option will be especially relevant for citizens of Belaruswho have long been accustomed to traveling in Europe via the airport of nearby Vilnius. By the way, this is the way we got to Bavaria ourselves. Here, in fact, everything is quite simple. All you need is ...

Go to the website, choose the dates you want and buy the desired ticket.
Fly to Nuremberg, leave the airport and buy a metro ticket from such a red machine (3.1 euros).

Then go down to the subway and take the train to the station Hauptbahnhof... This is the city's central railway station. Trains go there without a change. The bus station is not far from it - a few hundred meters. To find it, go to the opposite (!) Side from the towers of the old city. The bus station itself looks like this.

More about this is written in the article below.

Got to the bus station? Now we take a bus to Munich (for example, a company bus). Personally, we chose this route for ourselves during our trip. It is better to buy bus tickets in advance. The fare between the two cities ranges from 5 to 8 euros.

Travel time (let's count together): 2 hours flight from Vilnius to Nuremberg + 10 minutes by metro + 2 hours by bus from Nuremberg to Munich. In fact, this path will take you about 5 hours (with all the searching and waiting). Plus the time it takes to get from Minsk to Vilnius. But this, of course, is a completely different story.

Ticket prices (again, let's count together)... The average price for a flight Vilnius - Nuremberg is 13-15 euros (we bought at a stock price of 9.99). Add to this the tickets for the metro (3.1) and the FlixBUS bus (5-8 euros). And then we multiply all this by two (since you need to get there and back). It turns out for the whole journey from 36 to 52 euros... Agree, the savings are very decent.

We fly to Memmingen from Moscow (for Belarusians and Russians)

Recently, the company's planes fly from Moscow (Vnukovo) to the M? Nchen-West airport (aka Memmingen) Pobeda... Everything is very simple here: we went to the site pobeda.aero, chose the right dates and flew away to drink beer with sausages.

Ticket prices ranges from 5 to 15 thousand Russian rubles (for a round trip).

Travel time: about 3 hours.

As for the rest of the route - from Memmingen to Munich itself, everything is also very simple here. If you wish, you can buy tickets to the capital of Bavaria right on the Pobeda website, choosing Munich (central station) as your destination. In this case, in Memmingen, you will simply be transferred to a bus centrally and taken to the final point of the route. More on this on the print screen below.

We fly to Memmingen from Vilnius (for Belarusians)

Here everything is a little more complicated, but also nothing unreal. You can buy tickets from the capital of Lithuania to the capital of Bavaria from such low-cost airlines as Wizz air (check who will have the best prices).

Travel time: slightly less than 2.5 hours.

Ticket prices: from 14 euros and more. During sales - 9.99 € (one way).

How to get to Munich from Memmingen airport (Allgäu / Munchen-West)

Photo from the website allgaeu-airport-express.de

Option number 1 ... Direct buses Allg? U Airport Express. They operate 4 to 8 flights every day. Such a trip costs 15 euros (for an adult) and 8 euros for a child (up to 12 years old). You can buy tickets on the carrier's website allgaeu-airport-express.de or from the driver. Tickets are more expensive on the spot.

Option number 2 ... Company flights. They depart from Memmingen Airport to Munich once a day. The cost of the trip is 11 euros. Alternatively, there is also the option to travel to Munich from Memmingen Central Bus Station. In this case, a ticket for a Flixbus bus will cost less - from 5 to 10 euros. The buses themselves will also be much larger. If there is only one flight from the Allgäu airport, then Flixbus buses leave from the central bus station constantly (there are 6 flights between cities at once).

Travel time... Both in the first and in the second case - about 1.5 hours (plus or minus).

Alternative option ... Travel to Munich by train. The railway station is located very close to the bus station, and the trains themselves run between cities every hour.

You can view the schedule and buy tickets on the website www.bahn.de .

Train tickets start at 25 euros. The advantage of this option is the large number of trains that run regularly between cities. The disadvantage is the high cost of the trip.
