Germany: Frankfurt or Munich?

[+ Vegas_Millennial]

Gentlemen, 

Please help me decide whether to visit Frankfurt or Munich for 3 nights next May.  My 2.5 week trip is centered around a gay Spartacus cruise from Croatia to Rome, with 5 nights in Rome afterwards.  I need to choose a European city to spend the weekend before flying to Croatia for the cruise.  Business Class flight prices and schedules will dictate where I fly, (I'm waiting for flight schedules to be adjusted 6 months prior to my trip before booking); but, right now, it's a tie between Frankfurt and Munich.

Do either Frankfurt or Munich stand out as having better hustler bar, sauna, or European hunks for rent than the other?

Munich is 10 times more interesting in my book.

Munich is like Chicago. It’s not Germany’s greatest city….but it’s interesting.

Frankfurt is like Detroit. It just is.

Agree. Frankfurt is boring. I recall a decent sauna but that’s all. Go for Bavaria

for sex trade Cologne/Dusseldorf/Essen and Berlin are best with Hamburg a close 2nd. air connections are weird to Germany but avoid FRA at all costs. I've never not had a good time in Cologne. I've never tried Munich.

I agree with the recs.  We did Munich in '22 and loved it.

If the choice is between Frankfurt and Munich, definitely choose Munich. It is a more international and cosmopolitan city with diverse dining and cultural options.

I appreciate this information. But are there actually German guys available for hire? It seems like all over Europe for the last few decades there are men from all over the globe except locals on the market. One of the pleasures of traveling to a particular country is to savor the distinct culture and local fare!

that's my problem with the Prague thread too. Although not may of the escort circuit guys come to Prague to advertise (some do), many of the Czech escorts are now on the escort circuit and rarely advertise in Prague, even when they're home. Zurich and London used to be the only cities with a lot of travelers but It seems the most popular cities for Czechs now are Dusseldorf/Cologne , several cities in Switzerland, not just Zurich, and some Amsterdam and some Frankfurt, Berlin and Stuttgart. (that Amsterdam to Cologne area is also is a compact "Ruhr" area to travel) . London is expensive to work because of high hotel costs and UK immigration is not friendly to them. That said there are a few exceptional Germans on Hunqz i follow who do just the German/Swiss circuit.

Having lived in both Frankfurt and Detroit, I find your comparison almost comical.  Can I ask what city in Germany is the greatest?   Most likely you'll say Berlin which actually is compared to Detroit quite often.  That being said, between the two cities mentioned, Munich is by far the better choice.
