It is the cheapest option for one or two travelers and the dearest per head from three, because it has no group fare of any kind and the train does.

Buying from the driver costs EUR 1.00 more than buying online, so book on your phone before you board.

The last departure is 22:25. It is a daytime service and covers none of the night.

It is a road journey into the middle of Munich and the published 45 minutes is a fair-weather figure.

It loses at every party size from one to eight. Even eight people in one large taxi pay EUR 106.00 against EUR 65.20 for two group tickets on the train.

The fixed fare applies to the Hauptbahnhof zone. The extent of that zone is not stated here, so for an address elsewhere in Munich agree the basis of the fare before setting off.

It is the only option here that certainly runs all night, which is its real argument rather than the price.
