About this trip

Everyone has heard of the famous German Christmas Markets and our classic tour visits the most traditional of the Bavarian markets. Sip hot wine with the locals and enjoy learning about German Christmas customs! Ours is a small, personalized tour, and participation is limited to 23 people. By design, our tour covers less geography so you don't spend all of your time in a bus. During our time, we use only two hotels, both of which are located in the old towns. We take care of all the details and explain all the secrets of the culture, the history and the traditions. If you believe there is more to travel than just sight-seeing, our trip is for you.

Led by a local

Enjoy the convenience of having a local unveil the history and unlock the culture and its traditions.  With our expertise, you will see more in less time and experience the beauty of the Bavarian Culture, stress-free.

Physical Requirements

Europe is not always for someone with disabilities and we encourage you to asses your abilities frankly. With our tour, there is a good amount of walking. Our hotels are located in the "old town" which makes getting in with a bus challenging. We often need to load and unload the bus and walk to our hotel, with our things, up to 1/4 mile. Many of our hotels do not have an elevator and the most interesting parts of any of our destinations are located in pedestrian only areas, usually paved with cobble stones. As a guideline we recommend you be able to sustain a pace of 3 mph for up to 20 minutes. 

Food and Drink

Many of our group meals have a pre-planned menu and we offer the very best in common German cuisine. We can accommodate many dietary restrictions including common ones like Vegetarian and various allergies. However, we asked that you inform us up front. And, I am afraid that the traditional restaurants we commonly use will almost never offer Vegan selections. 


This being Germany, alcohol is abundant and many of your fellow travelers will be enjoying beer and wine during the meals. In the markets, the alcohol drinks are a beloved part of the the Christmas Market experience.

This was one of the best trips I’ve been on in my life. I call it a trip of a lifetime. Scott and Vonia are the best tour guides I’ve ever had the pleasure of traveling with. We got to see the best of Bavaria with people who grew up American and now live in Germany. They have been doing this for over 20 years and it shows. They are able to share the German traditions and how it relates to American. I love how they embrace the European lifestyle. They do an amazing job of showing how beer is part of the German culture. Being able to visit breweries and world renowned beer bars to enjoy German beer is one of the highlights. And finishing the tour at Oktoberfest? The way they do it is truly a highlight. They have reservations both days and give a novice and an expert an amazing experience. One of the best trips I’ve ever been on.

We had a wonderful time. Everything about the trip was well thought out and so enjoyable. It was also very informational. The passion in which the guides have for Bavaria makes this experience so different than just a normal vacation tour. We could not recommend the tour highly enough.

We had a great time on our journey to Bavaria! The group was fun and we visited many fantastic cities and sites. The food was delicious and hotel accommodations were nice. We visited a number of places that we wouldn't have easily visited on our own. Their were many tasty varieties of beer to drink as well! This was a very unique and enjoyable tour of Bavaria. Prosit!

This was a great trip with amazing insight into Germany and it's beer culture. Enjoyed Scotti, Vonia and the entire trip.

This was a fun filled tour. The people on it were really nice and the small group worked well. Saw a lot of places and things that we’ve never seen before on our trips to Germany. Scott and Vonia worked well together in keeping everyone busy and where they should be on time. We also enjoyed the local stops and inside information on this amazing trip. We came a day early so we had enough time to meet up with the group at the specific time and we should have stayed one more day so that we could catch more time at the Oktoberfest rides and stay later the last night.
