Welcome to a magical week in the "City with a Heart," perfectly tailored for a family adventure where Bavarian tradition meets interactive discovery. This journey is designed to keep young explorers engaged with hands-on science, wildlife encounters, and sprawling parks while ensuring a smooth, budget-friendly experience for parents.

🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect a classic Bavarian May: a mix of spring warmth and sudden "Ice Saints" chills. Temperatures average +7°C to +18°C, but can swing wildly. Clothing: Think "onion style" (layers). A waterproof light jacket is mandatory as May is one of the wettest months. Daylight: You have over 15 hours of light! Sunset is around 20:50, giving you plenty of time for evening park strolls. Pro Tip: Always carry a small umbrella or rain ponchos in your daypack for those 45% probability showers.
