Discover the Bavarian beer that was brewed according to the Puity Law passed in 1516! The tour begins with a visit to Munich city centre on foot to discover the capital's main attractions. Then make your way to the Paulaner brewery for a tour of the premises. Under the supervision of a professional brewer, you will be introduced to the brewing techniques that have been used in Bavaria for centuries. Last but not least, you will have the opportunity to try some of the brewery's beer. Excessive drinking is harmful to your health. Please drink responsibly.

Discover the most beautiful castles in Bavaria on an excursion from Munich.

Leave Munich and drive to Linderhod Castle, where you will meet the castle guide. Discover the secrets of the castle and its gardens, as well as the Venus grotto or even the hunting lodge. Take your time in traditional Bavarian Oberammergau to eat or shop. Then head to the famous Bavarian building: Neuschwanstein Castle, built on a rocky outcrop. Enjoy 3 hours of visiting the castle at your own pace. Step onto the throne of Ludwig II of Bavaria, the chapel or even the Marienbrücke to enjoy the romantic view of the gorges. Drive back to Munich in the early evening.

Drive from Munich into the heart of the Bavarian Alps, and explore the Kehlsteinhaus, a former representative building in Hitler's so-called "Führer's restricted area". An idyllic road leads from Munich to the pretty village of Berchtesgaden. From there it goes to the Obersalzberg to climb the Kehlsteinhaus, also called "Eagle's Nest", with an elevator that was built into the mountain (not included in the price, has to be paid on site).

The Kehlsteinhaus stands on a rocky peak at an altitude of 1,834 meters. It was given to Adolf Hitler on his 50th birthday and was used as a representative building. Explore the conference room, the dining room, the small tea room and the terraces in the company of your guide, who will bring you closer to the history of this unique place.

Home to breweries, a magnificent Old Town, and an array of museums and galleries, the capital of Bavaria is a wonderful choice for a memorable city break, and a culture-lover’s dream. Founded by Benedictine monks sometime in the 10th century, the city is now considered a major centre of technology, art, and science, successfully rebuilding itself after the destruction of the Second World War.

Start your exploration of Munich in Stachus Square, with its concentration of restaurants, cafes, and shops, before moving on to the luxury boutiques on Maximilianstrasse or admire the Gothic city hall on Marienplatz. For a taste of local life, wander the Schwabing district north of the city centre, where you can take a wander through the 900-acre English Garden, and even go surfing on the Eisbach river!

Visitors to the city towards late September will find it difficult to miss the annual Oktoberfest, a historic and worlds-largest Volksfest, an expansive beer festival and funfair where visitors can taste the product of some of the city’s oldest and best breweries! To immerse yourself in more Bavarian history, visit Nymphenburg Palace, a Baroque summer palace for the House of Wittselbac; or, take a day trip to the picture-perfect, fairytale-like Neuschwanstein Castle, perched on a clifftop in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps.
