hello everyone,
me and my friend are planning a trip to germany in, to my dismay (no pun intended), may before the world cup. i wanted to go in june but it is not a possibility. so i was wondering if anyone could help me out with when the bundesliga season ends, the price of tickets and the availability. I would prefer to go to a game in munich, not necessarily bayern. thanks in advance for the help.

The last round is May 13th. The cup final in Berlin is April 29. It is usually after the season ends, but because of the World Cup it is earlier.

tickets vary, but are below what you are used to in England or American pro leagues. If you are a student below 20€ for most games in the stands (best atmosphere).
Availability depends on the place and the game, games with Bayern Munich tend to sell out, but games like Wolfsburg vs Bielefeld don't.
You can order the tix from abroad though, so it should not be a problem to set something up.
Where exactly are you guys going to travel? And what exactly are you intending to do (besides attending to a soccer match ;-) )

You travel to the "not so loud stadiums" but they're fine too.
Ok, to watch watch a match in a stadium what is not so noisy is ok sometimes too.

Munich is very expensive, so I don't think I would go there. Are you going to see how the lifestyle is, visit museums or just party (Amsterdam and Prague ;-) )?
I'd try to visit a city in the Ruhr area like Cologne (that's the place to go in Germany, a lot of party, a different mentality to Berlin and Bavaria, and not as expensive) and a city in northern Germany, Hamburg, Hanover or Bremen come to mind, because you'll get to know a different mentality also.
