Description
Meet us in Munich for the most unforgettable time of your life. The city has been transformed into a festival unlike anything you’ve ever dreamed of. Millions of people dressed in lederhosen and dirndls frolicking around the festival grounds, riding swings, playing games, laughing, eating and enjoying life as it fades by. Once you’re all checked in to your accommodation in Munich, your guide will help anyone who wants to dress in the traditional outfits by taking you to the best spot to purchase a lederhosen or dirndl. The trip will officially start with a celebratory welcome pretzel and your first beer stein. From here, the magic of Oktoberfest will take you away. The time in Munich will be spent enjoying the final festive weekend at the festival grounds and whizzing through the streets to the Englischer Garten on the Munich Bike Tour. On Monday morning, you’ll board a coach bus and start the journey to the Czech Republic. Soon after you’ll arrive to the fairy tale city of Prague! In Prague, you’ll explore the maze-like streets on an included walking tour followed by a local lunch. There will be plenty of time to explore on your own, catch up with work in a local cafe or simply unwind while taking in the beauty of the city. This time of year in Prague is such a beautiful one with Autumn in full effect, leaves changing colors and a wonderful way to end your trip.

Day 2 – Festival Day
Breakfast will be available at the accommodation in the morning. The group will be departing early to the festival to wait in line outside the famous Hofbrau tent.

It is a massive adrenaline rush once the doors open and the first beer of the day is poured and music starts playing.
