About this trip
This one is built around two of Germany's biggest beer festivals, with a couple of proper towns thrown in between drinks. You start at Oktoberfest in Munich, in the tents with the crowds, then head to Regensburg and Rothenburg before finishing at the Stuttgart Beer Festival.
It's a trip for people who want the festival atmosphere as much as the sightseeing — long tables, big crowds, and a lot of beer, alongside some genuinely old towns worth walking around sober for an hour or two.
Regensburg and Rothenburg ob der Tauber give you the medieval Germany side of things, with centuries-old streets and pubs to match, before you're back into festival mode in Stuttgart.
What you'll do
- Join the crowds in the beer tents at Munich's Oktoberfest
- Explore Regensburg, a UNESCO World Heritage city with hundreds of bars and pubs
- Wander the medieval streets of Rothenburg ob der Tauber
- Drink at a pub in Rothenburg that's over 1,000 years old
- Raise a glass at the Stuttgart Beer Festival, including at a revolving bar
- This is a festival-focused trip built around drinking culture, so it suits people happy with big crowds and beer tents
- Timed to run alongside Oktoberfest and the Stuttgart Beer Festival, so dates are seasonal rather than year-round
Worth it if you want Oktoberfest sorted with a tight group and proper guides. Think twice if you need strict itineraries or prefer independent travel.
- Pre-booked beer tent reservations and festival entry mean no queuing or stress on the day.
- Guides consistently praised as personable and knowledgeable, making the difference between good and memorable.
- Genuine balance: structured group events like Oktoberfest, but substantial free time for solo exploration daily.
- All meals and beer pre-arranged and paid; limited flexibility if dietary needs or preferences change mid-trip.
