Welcome to Oktoberfest, done the way your new local friend would show you — great food, delicious beer, real stories, zero stress, and balcony seats waiting inside the tent.

City Introduction at Marienplatz

Your day begins at Marienplatz, the historic heart of Munich. After meeting your guide, you’ll enjoy a short walking introduction to Munich’s Old Town, learning how the city’s medieval roots, royal history, and beer-making traditions shaped the modern Wiesn. This gentle mini tour sets the stage before the festivities begin.

Traditional Bavarian Breakfast & Beer Culture

Next, settle in for a traditional Bavarian breakfast of Weisswurst, fresh pretzels, and a morning beer — just like the locals. Over breakfast, your guide dives into Munich’s beer culture: the role of monks in brewing, the origins of the pretzel, why beer purity mattered so much here, and even how to properly pour a Weissbier.

Tram Ride to Augustiner Keller — Munich’s Oldest Brewery

After breakfast, you’ll hop on a tram to the iconic Augustiner Keller — one of Munich’s oldest and most beloved beer gardens. Augustiner is the oldest brewery in Munich, and its history goes back to 1328. Here, your guide shares the stories of beer gardens, beer rights, wooden barrels, and the traditions that make Bavarian beer culture unique.

Guests who wish may enjoy a half pint poured directly from a wooden barrel, the way beer has been served here for generations. You’ll also explore the historic underground beer cellars, a place where beer was once stored long before refrigeration existed — a fascinating look into Munich’s brewing past.

Arriving at the Wiesn — Insider Tips & Orientation

From Augustiner Keller, the group takes a scenic walk over the Hackerbrücke bridge toward the Oktoberfest grounds, with great views along the way. Your guide will point out the best photo spots, explain how to navigate the festival, and share essential insider tips for making the most of your time at the Wiesn.

Arriving at the iconic Oktoberfest grounds at Theresienwiese, you’ll bypass the crowds and head straight to your guaranteed reserved balcony seats inside the tent. Balcony seating offers elevated views over the entire hall and a calmer, more spacious atmosphere — with the freedom to move down to the lively main floor whenever you like.

At your table, enjoy a platter of Bavarian meats, cheeses, and spreads, followed by a classic Oktoberfest feast: two liters of beer and a half roast chicken (vegetarian options available). Take photos with lederhosen-clad waiters and dirndl-wearing servers, toast with your tablemates, and soak in the music and atmosphere as your guide shares more stories and local insights.

Get Local!

To make the day even more special, each guest receives a custom-made Oktoberfest gift personalized with their name — a unique keepsake available only through The Local Experience. Guests may also arrange optional Tracht rental (lederhosen or dirndl) with advance notice, and anyone wishing to buy their own traditional outfit can take advantage of our free personal shopper for authentic Bavarian clothing.

You’ll also have time to explore the Wiesn beyond the tents: ride the Ferris wheel for sweeping festival views, wander the historic attractions, and be sure to ask your guide about the legendary toboggan — it’s guaranteed to make you laugh out loud the moment you see it.

This is Oktoberfest done properly: cultural, premium, beautifully organized, and completely stress-free — the perfect way to enjoy the world’s most famous festival.
