What is the approximate cost for 2024?

For out Oktoberfest 2024 trip, the cost at this time is $1005 USD per person in a twin share accommodation!

Does this come with tickets? We don't want to drink beer for three days so can we tour off site?

Entry is free into the festival. Travellers need to pay for any rides, food drink / beer. There are free time add ons also available for this trip that you can organize with your trip manager while on trip.

Is it a requirement with your company policy, or can I continue to make my booking as I have not been vaccinated?
