From mid-September till early October millions of people from all over the world dress up in Bavarian dirndl or lederhosen, indulge in hearty pretzels and bratwursts and litres of wheat beer. What better place to do it in than the famous Bavarian capital city of Munich? And did you know that the city of Munich banned disposable serving ware back in 1991? Fun AND sustainable!

Journey to the beautiful Black Forest

The Black Forest region was like something out of a fairytale and you can really see how the Brother's Grimm got their inspiration! We went on an adventure through thick woodlands, flowering meadows, deep valleys and flowing waterfalls... it was nature at its finest and all so enchanting I half expected to find a trail of breadcrumbs and meet a fair princess or a wicked witch!

Wander along the Berlin Wall

The Berlin Wall was one of the most stirring places I visited in Germany and a must-see on your Berlin trip. The wall once divided the German capital in every sense and you can now visit the remaining sections of the once 155-km wall. It was an incredible experience to see all the thought-provoking graffiti and moving artworks now covering the wall.

what to eat & drink in germany

Spiced sausages, frothy ales, rich cakes… German cuisine is hard to resist and we’ll show you where to find all the best eats in the country.

Pretzel

The German pretzel in its original home is on many foodie bucket lists, and we’ll let you in on all the best pretzel stands across the country. This salty, fluffy, knotted treat is best eaten in the morning when they’re fresh and warm, but we also love to wash them down with an afternoon ale.

Berliner Pfannkuchen

The sugar-obsessed will rejoice at this donut-like pastry made from sweet yeast dough and baked with a filling like jam, chocolate, vanilla cream or even eggnog during the festive season. Incredibly addictive, you won't be able to stop at just one.

Bavarian beer

Here’s some stats to boggle your mind - over 50% of Germany’s breweries are in Bavaria, with around 40 types of beer and over 4,000 brands of Bavarian beer. Feel overwhelmed? We’ll guide you through the frothy goodness, as we hop through the best beer halls to sample the cream of the crop.
