    This was a bucket list trip for my husband and it did not disappoint. Everything was set up for us and we had so much fun. Ken and his crew were friendly and welcoming.

    This was the trip of a lifetime and Thirsty Swagman took all of the guesswork out of the experience! We customized our trip to add on a few extra days in the beginning at the Munich hotel. We also customize to add a couple of nights at Stuttgart. All this was handled very professionally and very easily. They provided excellent information and recommendations and made this trip one of the best experiences we have ever had! Shout out to Kenneth and Ashley for making sure we enjoyed everything! Be sure to read Ashley’s blogs if you have never been there before.

    What a wonderful experience! Kenneth and his staff were amazing to work with, both in preparing for the trip and after we arrived there. With their help and expertise, the event was everything we had hoped for and then some. Le Meridien was a beautiful hotel. We enjoyed the courtyard, the lounge, the dining room and the nicely appointed rooms. Ken's advice for walking to the Sunday parade and getting back on time was spot on. Leading us to the Oktoberfest grounds and to our reserved seating was probably the primary reason for using this company, but as it turned out, it was just icing on the cake. I will let our local travel agency know that they can wholeheartedly recommend Thirsty Swagman to future clients. (I had asked them if they thought this company was legit.) Thank you again for a great time. Prost!

    The tour was fine but that’s all. It wasn’t anything we couldn’t have done on our own (with the exception of making the hotel reservations which are already sold out a year in advance). We were asked to leave at 1915 due to our son’s age (9) after multiple emails to the tour organizer regarding the presence of kids with us. When I asked him abt that he said “it’s been a long time since we had kids that young.” I’d have thought for the $$ we paid he’d have looked into this beforehand. He basically said “oh well” and took our money. The first day of “reservations” the beer hall was almost empty and we could have sat anywhere. Instead the tour was in the balcony overlooking an empty beer hall (wow). Again, nothing very impressive about this tour.

    Hi Ali, Firstly you didn't even book any package at this hotel, we do not book families with kid there. The children were asked to leave at 8pm, which is a policy of all Oktoberfest beer tents - this was emailed to you prior to booking and it is not... Show more

    My husband and I decided to stop in Munich for Oktoberfest before traveling elsewhere in Europe for a couple weeks. I'm so glad we booked Thirsty Swagman to help us out with this! This is truly the only way to do Oktoberfest if you are a first timer like we were. We had so much fun at the reserved tables they had for us, and made many friends within the group. The hotel was also perfect, and they have the most incredible included breakfast. If we go to Oktoberfest again, we will definitely book it through Thirsty Swagman!

    Rachel you are awesome, thank you so much for this epic feedback! We are so happy that you had such a great time with us at the Munich Oktoberfest. And agreed, the breakfast at the Le Meridien is amazing, it's such a good hotel. Stay thirsty, always.

    We just completed a two week trip through Europe with a group of four of us. Our second leg of the trip was using The Thirsty Swagman for a once in a lifetime experience at Octoberfest. Expectations were high going into this leg of the trip but Kenneth and his team exceeded this lofty bar in making everything as worry free and easy as possible. Everything was on time, well coordinated and the only thing we needed to worry about was showing up. We'd definitely use The Thirsty Swagman again and recommend that anyone else looking for a worry free Octoberfest experience do the same!

    This is my 3rd Oktoberfest tour with Thirsty Swagman and it has maintained its thorough excellence. Kenneth is amazing and has everything perfectly organized. IMO if you are coming from abroad to experience Oktoberfest, this is the only way to do it.

    Kenneth and his crew were all very knowledgeable with how to navigate Oktoberfest. It would have been difficult without their help. They helped make our experience top notch!
