The BMW Museum costs €17 for adults. BMW Welt next door is free, so you do not need a tour to visit. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday, 10 am to 6 pm, and closed on Mondays. Take the U3 to Olympiazentrum, and bring a card: there is no cash at the ticket desk. Book a tour only if you want a private guide or a full day out; they start from €264 per person or €440 per group.
Our 4 picks for BMW Museum tours
All four are private tours with free cancellation. The plain museum ticket is sold by BMW itself, so it is not on this list. Prices and ratings as shown on GetYourGuide on 28 October 2026.

What BMW Welt is, and why it is free
BMW Welt is the brand's big showroom, right next to the museum. Entry is free.
It opens long hours. Monday to Saturday it is open from 7:30 am to midnight. On Sundays and holidays it opens at 9 am.
BMW Welt is closed from December 24 to 26, 2026, and from December 31, 2026 to January 1, 2027.
BMW Welt tour and tickets: what you can book
You need no ticket for BMW Welt itself. Three of the four tours on this page stop there.
The short private tour gives you a host at BMW Welt. The 6-hour drive visits it too.
BMW Munich tours: which private tour for whom
Most people do not need a tour here. The museum costs €17, and BMW Welt is free.
A private tour makes sense if you want a guide to tell the story, or a full day planned for you.
The 4-hour walk adds the old town before the museum. If the old town matters more to you than cars, see our walking tours in Munich, Germany.
The two tours by car add the Olympic Park and the Allianz Arena. The 9-hour day also adds Nymphenburg Palace.
What costs extra
The 9-hour day does not include tickets. Its listing names €17 for the museum, €25 for the arena and €12 for the palace, each optional.
Food and drinks are extra on all four tours.
BMW factory tours in Munich: what these tours do not include
