DelayI wanted to have a look round Munich. I only had a limited amount of time and the train was unfortunately very late. That shortened my journey even more. At least there was wifi on the journey and I was able to surf the internet. The toilets on the train were very clean and the ticket was cheap.

WIFIThe regional express journey was pleasant and relaxing. The seats were comfortable and there was enough space for luggage. I particularly liked the fact that the train departed on time and the announcements were clear to understand. The train cleaning was okay, not perfect, but acceptable. One downside was that the wifi often didn't work properly, which was a bit annoying. Overall a recommendable journey!

StenchI travelled to Munich to visit a friend. The train arrived on time and I had a good seat. However, it stank very badly and the toilet facilities were very covered. There was a bistro, but you didn't want to buy anything there because the whole train smelt so bad. The wifi was very good and the staff very nice and courteous.

Price-performance ratioI was travelling on business and wanted to use the train journey to work. The seat was comfortable and the wifi worked well for the most part. The service was also friendly and attentive, which I noticed positively. The view en route was beautiful and the train arrived on time. I didn't have to change trains, which saved me a lot of stress. My only criticism was the price-performance ratio, as the ticket was quite expensive for the route. The train journey was a really smart choice for me and I would definitely recommend it!

DelayYesterday I travelled from Ingolstadt to Munich on the Deutsche Bahn. The journey went by quickly and I arrived at my destination in under an hour. Unfortunately, Deutsche Bahn was late and my train arrived half an hour late. The train was empty, so there was plenty of room even without a reservation.
The staff were friendly and there was no on-board bistro where you could buy something to drink.

The view of the beautiful landscape outside made the journey pass quickly. I found it particularly positive that the train was on time and made regular stops, making it easy to reach smaller towns. It was quiet enough to read or listen to music. There was one drawback: there were no power sockets available on the train.

It looked neat and tidy, there was plenty of seating so no one was disadvantaged. The windows were clean and there was enough daylight coming in. The toilets were clean and well designed. There was wifi as well as electricity on the train. A connection that I can gladly recommend.

HygieneWCsComfortHello everyone! A few months ago I took a trip from Ingolstadt to Munich. The price was really very good and appealed to me. In addition, the service was very friendly. The volume on the train was reasonable. However, hygiene was not maintained, especially in WCs. Because these were not clean and it smelled very unpleasant. The seats were not comfortable. I also found some coffee stains on my seats. But the trip was pretty good overall.
Advantages
Very relaxed and not so expensive connectionDisadvantages
NoneThe ride was very relaxed, quiet and pleasant. The staff was very friendly and approachable. Booking the ticket was smooth and quick. The price was reasonable. There was wifi, electricity and a snack bar on the train. You could get a fresh coffee at any time, it was quiet on the train so you could relax and maybe fall asleep. The toilet was clean and there was everything you need. A trip I can recommend.
Advantages
A recommendable connectionDisadvantages
I have not had any negative experiencesBooking this ticket was very understanding and easy. I was able to print my ticket immediately and set off. The train arrived on time, there were enough seats, which were very clean and comfortable. On the train itself it was relaxed and pleasantly quiet. During the journey, you could devote yourself to the scenery. It was clean, there was wifi so you could watch something on YouTube. The toilet met all the guidelines, it was clean for a train. I am very happy to recommend this connection.
Advantages
ComfortableCleanOn timeWIFIDisadvantages
PriceI have to say that the journey was satisfactory overall, but the price was not cheap. First of all, I was happy that the train left on time and I arrived in Munich without any delays. The cleanliness on the train was also fine and there was enough space to sit comfortably. However, I have to say that the price of the ticket was not cheap. It would have been nice if there had been something cheaper, especially as the journey is not too long. Another point of criticism would have been the noise on the train. There were some passengers who were very loud and thus disturbed the relaxed atmosphere. All in all, the train journey from Ingolstadt to Munich was fine. I was satisfied with the punctuality and cleanliness on the train, but I would have liked a slightly cheaper ticket. The noise level on the train was also a bit annoying.
Advantages
QuickCleanOn timeComfortDisadvantages
PriceA trip by train from Ingolstadt to Munich was pleasant overall, but not particularly cheap. The trains were clean and punctual, the seats comfortable and the staff friendly. The journey time was about an hour, which is pleasantly short. However, the ticket price was comparatively high, especially considering that it was only a short route. It is therefore worth looking for offers early on or considering alternative means of transport. Overall, the train is a convenient and reliable option for the route from Ingolstadt to Munich, but you should be aware that it is not always the cheapest option.
Advantages

PunctualityPriceStaffTemperatureUnfortunately, the train ride from Ingolstadt to Munich only gets two stars from me. One reason was that the train was an hour and 15 minutes late. As is always the case with Deutsche Bahn. When it finally arrived late, we boarded the cold train. It was 13 degrees in the train. Then I was also shouted at by the staff when I remarked that it was cold on the train. The only advantage was that there was very good wifi on the train, which made up for the whole train journey. All in all, I regretfully only gave it two stars.

PriceI took the train from Ingolstadt to Munich and I found it very convenient and comfortable. I was glad that I had chosen an environmentally friendly option instead of driving. The duration of the journey was also pleasant and not too long. However, I have to admit that the price of my ride was not cheap. I had not booked the ticket in advance and therefore had to pay the full price. This was annoying as it put a strain on my travel budget. There were no delays or problems during the journey, which was another positive aspect. The train journey went smoothly and I was able to enjoy the scenery while relaxing. Overall, I would say that the train journey from Ingolstadt to Munich is a good option for travelling quickly and comfortably. However, if you want to reduce the cost, it is advisable to book the ticket in advance or look for cheaper fares.

PriceI recently had the opportunity to travel by train from Ingolstadt to Munich and I must say that overall it was a mixed experience. First of all, I have to mention that the price of the journey was not exactly cheap. I found it disappointing that I had to spend so much money for a one-way train ride. Not only was it expensive, but it wasn't very comfortable either. The train was on time and the journey went without any major incidents. However, the train was crowded and it was difficult to find a free seat. The train was also a bit cramped and I found it difficult to sit or move around comfortably. The positive thing about the trip was that I met some interesting people and the scenery was really beautiful during the journey. Overall, I would say that the train journey from Ingolstadt to Munich was a solid experience, but I think there are better options when it comes to comfort and value for money.
Advantages
It's cheaper than driving.Disadvantages
Sometimes comes too late.You usually get a seat. The conductors are usually friendly. It is relatively clean. There is no rubbish lying around and the bins are usually emptied. With the BahnCard 50 for 2nd class, the price-performance ratio is completely okay. With the 9€ ticket it was very crowded, but that was fully OK for the price.
Advantages
PriceDisadvantages
PunctualThis was a journey where comfort was definitely the top priority. The train arrived almost 20 minutes late. The network in Bavaria is very good. As a result, I had good reception on the train. There was no need to change trains and the journey took 45 minutes.
Advantages
PersonnelDisadvantages
NoneI rate the train connection as a very positive experience overall. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The compartments and sanitary facilities were very clean and hygienic. The journey, which took just under 45 minutes, was very quiet and pleasant. The ticket price was also very fair in my opinion. I didn't notice anything negative during the entire train journey.
Advantages
CleanlinessDisadvantages
UnpunctualUnfortunately, I realised that the train was not on time. However, I really enjoyed the journey itself. I rate the comfort as absolutely excellent. The staff were also very helpful. Like everywhere else in Munich, the network was very fast and had no dropouts. I was able to buy the ticket easily online. Overall, I give this short but pleasant train connection 5 stars.
Advantages
FastQuietDisadvantages
NoneIt was a very fast, pleasant, quiet journey! The train had working wifi and power sockets. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The train was also clean and the toilets were easy to use, and the seats were tidy and clean. The train was there within 45 minutes and on time. I think that the price-performance ratio is therefore fair and I will be travelling by train more often from now on.
Advantages

NoneI really have to say that it was very clean. The seats were very comfortable and the train was perfectly on time. It was very quiet during the journey. The wifi reception was very good throughout the journey and there were 2 power sockets available. The sanitary facilities were thoroughly cleaned and hygiene was excellent. The price of the ticket was very fair. The journey took about 50 minutes.
