Our home city and busiest hub. Trade fairs, airport transfers, Oktoberfest — we've been doing this here since 2014.
Munich is where Bus Booking started, and honestly, it's still where we do the most work. The city runs on trade fairs — Messe München hosts Bauma (the world's largest construction trade fair, 600,000+ visitors), ISPO (sports industry), Electronica, Analytica, and a dozen more events that bring tens of thousands of international visitors every season. Most of them arrive in groups. Most of them need transport.
That's how Joe founded the company in 2014. He spent years watching groups of engineers stand on S-Bahn platforms with luggage and lanyards, trying to figure out which line goes to the Messe. The solution was obvious: one contact, one charter bus with a professional driver who knows Munich inside out. Not a self-drive rental — a proper transport service where you get on and someone takes you where you need to go.
Beyond trade fairs, Munich is a magnet for corporate events. BMW Welt hosts product launches and conferences. The Allianz Arena draws corporate hospitality groups for Champions League matches. Pharmaceutical companies in Martinsried, tech firms in Garching — they all need team transport for off-sites, client visits, and training days.
Then there's the seasonal stuff. Oktoberfest (late September to early October) generates an enormous amount of group transport demand — corporate groups, incentive trips, tour operators bringing international visitors to Theresienwiese. And from spring through autumn, day trips to Neuschwanstein Castle, Salzburg, and the Bavarian Alps keep our coaches busy on weekends.
Our Munich partner fleet includes 12 SETRA S 515 HD coaches (all under 3 years old), a fleet of Mercedes Sprinter minibuses, and several Mercedes V-Class vans for executive transfers. Every driver is a Munich local who knows the ring roads, the trade fair gates, and the airport like the back of their hand.

Munich is our headquarters. The office is on Oettingenstraße, a few minutes from the Englischer Garten. When you book transport in Munich, you're dealing with the team that literally walks past these landmarks on their lunch break. That local knowledge matters more than you'd think.
Our Munich partner operators are the ones Joe started with back in 2014. They know which gate at Messe München is fastest for coach drop-offs (Gate East, if you're wondering). They know that the A9 autobahn gets jammed during ISPO week and that the back route via Trudering saves 20 minutes. They know where to park a 55-seater near Marienplatz (spoiler: you don't — you drop off at Sparkassenstraße and the coach waits at the P+R).
For Munich Airport (MUC) transfers, our drivers track your flight in real time. Terminal 1 or Terminal 2, arrivals hall — they'll be there with a name sign. The drive to the city centre is about 40 minutes. To the Messe, 35–45 minutes depending on traffic. To BMW Welt, 30 minutes. We time it, they drive it, you don't think about it.

Prices depend on group size, vehicle type, and duration. A half-day minibus with driver (up to 18 passengers) starts around €450–600.

We provide exact quotes within 2 hours — email us your details.
The drive from MUC Airport to Messe München takes approximately 35–45 minutes depending on traffic. During major trade fairs like Bauma or ISPO, allow extra time — traffic around the Messe can add 15–20 minutes. Our drivers know the fastest routes and monitor conditions in real time.
Yes, Oktoberfest shuttles are one of our most popular Munich services. We handle hotel-to-Theresienwiese transfers, evening returns (including late-night pickups), and multi-day packages. Book early — September dates fill fast, especially for groups of 20+.
All vehicles in our Munich partner fleet are under 5 years old and come with air conditioning as standard. Wi-Fi and USB charging are available on most coaches and minibuses — let us know your requirements and we will confirm availability for your specific booking.
Absolutely. The drive is about 2 hours each way. We can arrange a full-day excursion including Neuschwanstein, Linderhof Palace, and the village of Oberammergau. Our drivers know the parking logistics at the castle (which can be tricky for larger coaches) and the best photo stops along the way.
We provide dedicated shuttle services for all Messe München events including Bauma, ISPO, Electronica, Analytica, and ExpoReal. Services include airport-to-hotel, hotel-to-venue daily shuttles, and inter-city transfers. We know the Messe campus drop-off points and can coordinate timed arrivals around your exhibition schedule.
For standard transfers, 1–2 weeks is usually fine. For trade fair season (especially Bauma week) or Oktoberfest, book 4–6 weeks ahead. Large groups (40+) should ideally book 2–3 months in advance to guarantee vehicle availability. That said, we have handled last-minute requests with 24-hour turnaround.
"We've used Bus Booking for every Bauma since 2016. Forty engineers arriving from three different countries, transfers from MUC to the Messe and back for five days straight. They've never missed a pickup. Not once. At this point we just send them the flight list and don't worry about it."
