Ben was a very personable host that took great care of us! The entire experience was fabulous! We loved the walking food tour and driving tour of Nashville. The CMA awards topped it all off! I would highly recommend Ben and Bucket List Events!

Perfect way to celebrate my 40th
If I could say one thing to convince you to book your Oktoberfest tour with Bucketlist, it would be convenience. From the moment we arrived in Munich—exhausted after an hour and 45 minutes of slogging through customs (German efficiency my arse!)—Bucketlist proved their worth. Our original airport transfer had been accidentally taken by other guests, but Toby and Connor responded immediately and arranged a replacement car within minutes. Considering a taxi or Uber from the airport can easily run over €100, this included accommodation is absolutely not something to overlook.
We stayed at Hotel Munich City Center, which ended up being a very convenient home base for the tour. The staff were helpful, the breakfast was solid, and the location made it easy to get around. That said, on my next trip I’ll likely choose Hotel Kraft, simply because it’s closer to the downtown area and has quicker access to shops and more traditional German food options. The only real downside of City Center was our bathroom setup—our shower had no curtain or partition, so the entire floor got soaked every time we used it. We found ourselves requesting extra towels more than once, but the hotel staff always provided them promptly, so while it wasn’t ideal, it never became a significant issue.
The welcome dinner at Augustiner Keller was the perfect warm-up to Oktoberfest—amazing food, hearty beer, and such a cozy, festive introduction to the culture. The Bucketlist staff and guides were genuinely wonderful: friendly, knowledgeable, fun to talk to, and incredibly well organized. Tent reservations were seamless and stress-free.
Our first tent was the smaller Poschner’s, which was a fantastic, intimate introduction to Oktoberfest tent culture. Paulaner was our second tent and our first big one—and honestly my favorite. Every tent had its own charm and vibe, even during the freak heatwave that pushed temps over 90°F inside. The included drinks and food, plus the guides who helped us navigate ordering, made everything incredibly easy. All we had to worry about was having the time of our lives.
Our final large tent was Hofbräu, and yes—it absolutely earns its reputation as the rowdy, fratty party tent. It was wild, loud, chaotic, and ridiculously fun.
We also did the day trip to Neuschwanstein Castle, and the Mike’s Bikes guides were honestly better than the audio tour. Their storytelling, humor, and knowledge brought the place to life. Truly incredible people showing off an incredible piece of history.
Overall, I would 100% book this experience again. In the tumultuous political climate back home in the U.S., it was refreshing and heartwarming to experience so many people from all over the world simply coming together to have fun without judgment, pretense, or preconceived notions. I loved everyone I met, and I cannot wait to go back.
Danke, Toby and Connor—you helped make this a trip of a lifetime.

Octoberfest with Bucketlist
My husband and I had the great opportunity to participate in Oktoberfest in Munich through Bucketlist. It was an extraordinary experience and would highly recommend using Bucketlist. They handled everything from picking us up ar the airport, to reserving a really nice boutique hotel walking distance from Octoberfest grounds. They had great, knowledgeable and fun guides who made sure we were always at the right place and at the best tents. They provided us insider tips on the best food and beer to order at each tent. They definitely made it a memorable experience. I also really like they offered an activity day in between the tent visits days. We went to the Eagles nest which is a truly a unique place with lots of history and amazing view of the alps.

Bucket List Events is the way to go for your once in a lifetime vacation experience! You can mold your experience to your preferences and then let Bucket List take it from there! We used them for our Oktoberfest 2025 vacation and added on Salzburg, Austria. We had no idea how we were going to navigate such a big event and where to start planning and Connor and Toby made it a breeze! We were able to enjoy large and small tent events and there was plenty planned to take in the city and Bavaria. What we loved the most is there was always a back up plan in place in case weather or unforeseen circumstances came up. All the guides were amazing, full of info and, loads of laughs. I highly recommend Bucket List Events for your next adventure.

Our family of 6 agrees: Oktoberfest 2025 exceeded our (already high) expectations!
Solidly organized, clear, delivered every inch to what was promised. Friendly helpful staff, call out to Connor who guided us from the start, remained responsive and helpful up to and at the festival.
We went as a family of 6, and left so happy and still dancing and with lifelong memories of one of the highlights of our travels. Thank you!
