Prost! Munich is the beer capital of the world. It is the home of beer-halls, beer-gardens, beer-cellars and the legendary Oktoberfest. They've been brewing 'liquid bread' here for 3000 years and they do it better than anyone else. We'll take you into the heart of Munich's beer culture, show you where the locals go to drink the real good stuff and let you in on their secrets. This is not a pub crawl. This is a tour through the rich history and culture of Bavarian beer and food.

We'll tell you how beer is brewed and fill you in on the fascinating story of German brewing, a story as old as Germany itself. For as long as there have been Germans, there has been beer. From the ancient tribal Hausfrauen brew-women, through the great monastic breweries of the middle ages, to the revered Reinheitsgebot (Purity Law) of 1516, which continues to be the measure of excellence in brewing today. The world has looked to Germany to set the standards of what a cool drink of great beer should be. And Germany looks to Munich. We'll show you why.

We'll inform you on the different types of beer available and let you sample them for yourself. And we'll introduce you to the best traditional Bavarian food in all its variety including Weisswurst veal sausage, dumpling, roast pork, the celebrated Obatzda cheese and more. Don't eat before the tour! We'll give you an exclusive private tour through the beautiful new Beer and Oktoberfest Museum in one of Munich's most historic buildings (standing since 1347), show you a traditional beer garden, let you tuck into a generous Bavarian food platter at our own table in the city's oldest beer hall, and finish at the world-famous Hofbräukeller. There you have the option of continuing through the night. A warm glow is guaranteed.
