Austrian Chalet and Beerfest Coach tour - 6 Days

Oktoberfest 2010

Oktoberfest 2009 has come and gone - our dates and itineraries for 2010 will be released later in the year. Below is the 2009 6 day Austrian Chalet and Beerfest Coach tour itinerary, which will be similar to what we offer next year. Watch this space!

 

We have decided to offer passengers the chance to experience the opening weekend of Oktoberfest whilst staying in the stunningly beautiful alpine village of Kitzbühel in Austria. This town provides a great base for our Oktoberfest excursions, and is full of great bars, restaurants and shops. After the opening weekend has taken its toll, there's paragliding and white water rafting options available for the adrenaline junkies! For the Oktoberfest itself we run 90 minute shuttle transfers in and out of Munich.
