Bavaria Filmstadt

I would suggest to book your ticket in advance and than come in time so you have enough time to hang arround before. The tour takes 2hrs and is really interesting with kids and also to get a real feeling of filming and movies. Also different locations and lots to see and explore. Worth going.

Tour guide was super friendly and she was trying to include everyone in various acts. But the exibitions are not worth paying €23. Parking also cost €8. The tour would not take that long without tour guide.

Interesting for people who've seen films which are being discussed. Poor audio guide for English speakers. I liked Das boot installation the most. Everything is really good organized.

I got to visit for free for my birthday, so obviously cannot complain. I think for fans of German cinema it is a worthwhile visit - for others, not so much. The tour guides are very friendly though and there are many opportunities to "join in" on the action by acting, but usually this was reserved for the kids. I would not pay 23€ for everything I saw though...

I'll be honest that I only went so I could have a picture of me riding Falkor from the Never Ending Story. Although he was in a room in the courtyard and no longer part of the actual tour. We were there the last week of September 2024. We planned our day around the fact the website stated they offered one English tour at 12pm. Unfortunately, when we got there, they said they had no staff for the English tour. If we had known we could have planned differently. We were able to use the wifi to download their audio tour in English to listen to. It was obvious more information was given in German than on the audio guide. We had a friend with us that knew a little German and told us a few things. The 4D short we were forced to watch made me motion sick. After that we were taken to a spot and waited 10 minutes while our guide ran off to check on something. We were unsure what that was about. Some of the sets were interesting to walk though but most were from older films and not much current. Aside from the NES, it was mostly German films, but that is to be expected. Our friend had seen one or two for them. There were a few "interactive" parts of the tour. The green screen one was entertaining and easy to understand. The one of the other ones, even the Germans didn't seem to understand the point. Not speaking the language made those parts of the tour less enjoyable.

Recommend, although German seems to be main language. The tour guide was great though. Also the tours start at specific times, so one needs to optimize one's arrival.

Very nice experience and great guides. The tour is fun with cool things to see. However they do miss super exciting and famous things to see at the moment, the highlight are mainly from the 80s. The Atelier is also nice as it gives the chance to experience everything with your own speed and level of interest. For TV and movie lovers I can absolutely recommend this place. You can easily spend five hours in the Bavaria Filmstadt.

Bavaria Studios offer a great inside view to how a movie or a tv series are made: from the set, to scenario to acting and making a short movie. Of course you can see the set of some famous movies like Asterix and Obelix, Das Boot, The Never Ending story, The Stowaway and others. You can watch an exciting 4D movie and many more.

This park is only the studios tour version of Universal Studios Hollywood. No real rides except a one minute seated trip through a tunnel of historical films made here, one gift shop and an abbreviated McDonald's menu. There is not much to see outside of the small film museum (Atelier) showing photos of past films and the stars that played in them. There is, however a life sized version of The Neverending Story's luck dragon, falkor , that you can pose with for photos. Sorry but this is just a place u go to to say "at least I saw Falkor" from my youth.
