You can use public transport in Munich free of charge with the Munich City Pass and the Munich Card. Take the underground, bus, tram, suburban railway and regional trains as much as you like. Both the Munich City Pass and the Munich Card give you free travel in the booked area and within the selected validity period of the MVV. If you have a Munich City Pass or a Munich Card, you don’t have to buy another ticket – just get on and go.

Group Ticket – Explore Munich Together
Traveling with family or friends? The Munich Card Group Ticket is your perfect companion for discovering the city as a team. Valid for up to 5 people (two children aged 6–14 count as one person), it unlocks discounts at top attractions, museums, restaurants, and shops across Munich.
💡 Good to know: The included public transport ticket is issued to one main group member, who should be part of the group whenever public transport is used. All other discounts and benefits can be enjoyed by each group member individually, giving you plenty of flexibility to explore Munich your way.
