• Tours run in German, so download the free English audio guide (Hearonymus app) before you go
• 4D ride has a 1.20 m minimum height, so shorter kids sit out the ten-minute Mowgli film
• Many sets are outdoors and unheated, so wear comfortable shoes and dress for the weather

Bavaria Filmstadt is the visitor side of a working film studio on Munich's southern edge. A guide walks groups through original sets and props: the U-boat model from "Das Boot", the classroom from "Fack ju Göhte" and the set from "Jim Knopf". Kids can act short scenes in front of a camera, then ride a 3D motion-seat cinema. An outdoor play tower by the entrance fills the wait.
