Oktoberfest and Bavaria Discovery

Questions? Call us: 1-866-549-7614

Bavarian beer, Bavarian cuisine and Bavarian culture combine to make this one tour of Germany you don’t want to miss. Germans love their beer, and drink on average more than almost any nation on the face of the earth and the Octoberfest is where you get to not only see this in action, but partake in the festivities as well. Imagine singing along with ten thousand other voices to a simple but famous Bavarian song while the oom pah pah band plays while wearing lederhosen and hats with feathers in them, and you dance on tables with everybody else in unbridled joy. This is Octoberfest! Ok course, this tour is not only about beer. It’s also about sampling Bavarian cuisine, learning about the culture and history of Munich. And of course, two full day trips to gorgeous alpine lands where one can see where Walt Disney got his inspiration for the Disney castle and where Julie Andrews sang “the hills are alive with the sound of music” in the classic movie The Sound of Music. And where was this?: In Salzburg, Austria!

After frolicking at Oktoberfest, you’ll probably be pretty darned curious about where all this beer comes from, and the inspiration that drives the brewery’s pursuit of total quality. Tour a local brewery and find out how this famous beer is made.

Day 7 Munich (D)

The best thing about today is dinner! Dine at a traditional Bavarian restaurant and have your fill of hearty foods such as pigs knuckle, schnitzel, haxe, creamy sauces with locally produced mushrooms, suckling pig, creamy cheeses etc. Enjoy your one last night on the town with your new found friends.
