Our amazing small group tours of Bavaria offer a unique experience with an unusual approach to group travel. You will mingle with the locals and experience the history and culture up close. We are very proud of our record of delivering all our guests a memorable experience - read their comments in the About Us section.

BayernTrips tours are often centered around festivals like the Munich Oktoberfest, Starkbierfest, or Frühlingsfest. But, winter is a great time to visit Bavaria's famous Christmas Markets - the Christkindlmarkt. No matter when you choose to go, BayernTrips puts together the package to ensure you experience the depth of Bavarian Culture. We take you to world famous cities and sites like Munich, Neuschwanstein, Nuremburg, Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Salzburg, and Vienna. We also visit more hidden treats like Füssen, Ulm, Regensburg, Berchtesgaden, Königsee, Zugspitze, Oberammergau, Kloster Andechs and Kloster Ettal. And, you are accompanied by a native English speaker, who lives in Munich, speaks fluent German, and is a Diplom Bier Sommelier.

Some statistics about our guests: Average age of our guests 54 years old. In 2012, 32% of our guests had been on more than one previous trip with us.
