Poster: A snowHead
|
We are booked to go Gerlos in Austria on 11 March. Hotel and flights all booked. For a number of reasons we are flying to Munich.
Are there any shared transfer options available from Munich? We have been quoted 950 euros for 4 of us ( x2 with skis) but just wondering whether there is anything cheaper. Ideally we would prefer a shared (coach) transfer. Non of us are keen on renting and driving.
Thank you in advance

You might get a hire car cheaper?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I would think they could, but as they’ve said they are not keen on renting and driving .

Train to Jenbach then local taxi from there would work out a fair bit cheaper, one change of train needed

Four Seasons (Taxi Tirol) do shared transfers from Munich to the Zillertal. I’ve always found them reliable but the train would be cheaper, yes. You could get the train(s) to Zell am Ziller station and then get a regional bus from Zell am Ziller station to Gerlos. The regional bus 4094 might work for you, costs €6.70 one way per person. If you download the VVT app all the connections are on there.

@ralphr, You could take the train to Mayrhofen or Zell am Ziller and get a transfer from there but it is a long trip with at least two changes of train (possibly more). Car hire is the obvious answer but you say you are not keen. Any transfer is going to be expensive as it is a fair drive. I doubt there is a bus but look here https://www.muenchen-zob.de/en/countries this is the central bus station (near the Hauptbahnhof get off at Hackerbrücke - same stop as Oktoberfest ). Other option might be to look to change your flights into Innsbruck

@ralphr, I think you can get a shared shuttle if you Google it. 250-300 per way.

I did a shared transfer at the start of December (so only 3 weeks ago) with Four Seasons Travel from Munich airport to the Zillertal 198 Euros return.

Thank @VolklAttivaS5 @munich_irish @Matrix and @Alistair_Pink and everyone else for your advice. We have decided to go with Four Seasons- cost of 562 euros which is far more reasonable. Thanks again.
