I LOVED LOVED LOVED Oktoberfest, and I can't say enough good things about this trip. Our TD Jenci was so fun, we had a great group, and you can't beat a few days at this iconic festival. Book it, you won't regret it!

7th-time traveler Rachele

This was my 7th trip with ef and wow it did not disappoint. EF really makes Oktoberfest stress free with tables reservations and drink & food vouchers. The best and only way to do Oktoberfest. Also having Jenci as our TD made it 10x better.

Sure, you can do Oktoberfest on your own, but doing it with EF is SO WORTH IT and so much fun! I loved having a group to go to the tents with. Sander, our tour director, was great and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time :)
