Kevin gave us an MVP experience - Kevin was amazing. When they closed the Wiesn, he was able to book us a lunch at the Oktoberfest Museum. He led a great tour of Munich Center.

You need to do this! - Do it! Unfortunately don’t remember the name of our guide but she was fantastic (she gave us her card but of course I lost it - I believe she said she used to live in London) but this tour was extremely well planned and gave us so much history of Oktoberfest. So many things I would’ve never known had we not done this, like that the position of a bow on a drindl means something! Being on a tour with others made it a lot of fun and we got to meet a bunch of people. Amazing and of course great beer!

BEST OKTOBERFEST EXPERIENCE!!!! - Our tour guide Tom was absolutely phenomenal! He taught us a lot of history on the tour of the city. When we got to actual Oktoberfest, we had a table inside the tent for a good four and a half hours. He taught us a lot about the history of Oktoberfest. He was very funny and Knowledgeable on Germany. Very thankful getting to meet him!

What a memorable experience! - This tour and Oktoberfest experience was everything we hoped for, and more! It was very clear after trying to navigate Munich and into the fairgrounds the night before that it wasn’t as easy as we thought to get a few beers in a tent at the fest. Thankfully, I found this tour a few days before we left to Munich and I can’t be happier I did. Elisabeth was an amazing guide, offering not only a native Munich perspective but also some fantastic humor to the tour. Everything was set up for us and made it easy. My dad, our friend Paul and I all loved the experience and maybe even more so because of the great history lesson from Elisabeth along the way.

Amazing Oktoberfest experience! - Was looking for a short cut to learn about & attend Oktoberfest. English speaking tour guide named Jay was great. Very articulate and shared history, legends, stories mixed w/ a great sense of humor. Fun tour and really a great crash course to get up to speed at Oktoberfest. Highly recommended!

Great intro the Munich and Oktoberfest - This was a great tour. Enjoyed the walking tour and Munich history as well as the Oktoberfest table. Elisabeth was an amazing guide and truly loves showing off her town and her favorite season. It was really helpful for first timers to understand how to do Oktoberfest!
