    Did the 5-Day Oktoberfest tour with Megs and it was wonderful! She's so upbeat and charismatic and knows how to get everyone involved, even if we all were drunk most of the trip! Thanks again, Megs; you made my first Contiki a memorable one!

    I did the Contiki Oktoberfest tour with Matt as the guide this year and it was amazing. He was organised, on time and certainly knew the subtle nuances of Munich and the festival that only a local (or a very good tour guide) would know. I would do a tour with Matt again in a heartbeat.

    Danielle

    Asked on June 24th, 2025

    Do the tour tickets include entrance to the tents and seating inside? Which tent is known already? What is the difference between a 'tweeling' room for two people and a 'single' room for two people?

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • ContikiOperatorWritten June 2025

      Entry to the festival grounds is free of charge. Food, rides, and beverages are at your own expense. The group will visit the Lowenbrau tent. For two travelers, you'll be booked in a twin room with two single beds in one shared room. A single room is designed for just one guest and is typically more compact and priced differently.

    Asked on May 15th, 2025

    Is it okay to be a little late for the tour that starts at 2:00? Does this include reservations at the tents? Does the tour guide stay with us the whole time/are able to ask questions on what else we can see and is the transportation solely from hotel to Oktoberfest or does that include from airport as well?
