Oktoberfest 2025

Bucket List Events ensured a great experience from reaching out to help with trip reservations, transportation to & from the airport on the day of arrival. I purchased the 4-day package and had a great experience! I had enough time to fully enjoy Oktoberfest with Bucket List Groups and on my own, going to the Neuschwanstein Castle for the day, exploring Munich, and meeting great people along the way! I look forward to going back soon and having another great experience with Bucket List Events! Connor and Toby really do help from the beginning to end to make sure your experience is a great one and as hassle free as possible. The tour guides are great people and very personable, adding to the experience, and ensuring you have a fun time while visiting. Thanks again for the experience I won’t forget, Bucket List!

Do yourself a favor

We used Bucket List Events to coordinate our trip to Munich Oktoberbest this year and I can't recommend them enough. They made attending a big event seem like a walk in the park, and everything they touched was first rate. Book with them and sit back and enjoy! Specifically recommend the Neuschwanstein area bike tour they offer.

Oktoberfest 2025

We had an AMAZING time at Oktoberfest with Bucket List Events! Our guides in the tent were SUPER friendly, fun & very knowledgeable about ALL the tent etiquette. Our days trips from both Munich and Salzburg were so well planned and enjoyable; it was a truly a dream vacation. We didn't get to the TOP of the Eagle's Nest because of the weather but Bucket List was able to pivot and offer us a different excursion instead! We highly recommend to anyone who has Oktoberfest on their "Bucket List"! Looking forward to planning the next adventure!

The only way to do Oktoberfest

The experience from beginning to end was fantastic. The opening dinner was great followed by one evening in the Schottenhamel tent (large tent) and one evening in the Poschners tent (small tent). Both were great with great food, beer and fun. The Bucket List Events staff was always helpful and a lot of fun as well. Our group loved every minute of it. Made this one of the best trips we’ve ever taken. We will always recommend them to anyone who is thinking about going to Oktoberfest in Munich. If we had tried to schedule everything ourselves, it would have been a tremendous mistake.
This is the only way you should do Oktoberfest!

We used Bucket List for our Oktoberfest…

We used Bucket List for our Oktoberfest 2025 experience. When we decided to go to Oktoberfest, I knew we would need help. Found Bucket List online. From the airport pickup/drop-off to getting us in the tents, everything was top shelf. Without their service, our experience would have been a 10th of what it was. All the team members were outstanding. Highly recommend Bucket List Events.

The communication before and explanation of all of the events was very superb. All of the details were exactly what we needed, and it was one of the best trips I've ever had. I would highly recommend this company to anyone that might be slightly intimidated by Oktoberfest. They made you feel so welcome and took every detail into account. Truly a professional company and I would love to work with them again.

Oktoberfest 2025. So enjoyable

We had a group of 18 that went to Oktoberfest this year. Everything from the planning, requisite questions, transportation, accommodations , staff assistance and reservations was five star. As we continued on after Oktoberfest, our group kept asking if Bucket List was taking care of the little details that arise. We never had a moment of uncertainty in a foreign country at the biggest event they hold. Hats off to the entire team for making this so memorable. Can’t wait to use them for our next bucket list event

Oktoberfest a Must Do!

We did Oktoberfest through Bucket List Events. It was such an amazing experience! Connor helped our group with the planning and he was always very quick to respond. We did one small tent, Poschners and one big tent, Marstall. Both were so much fun. Our guides were very engaging and participated in celebrating with us. They always made sure we were taken care of. We stayed at Hotel München City Center and it is within walking distance to the grounds. It's the perfect location. The hotel was hopping nightly which was fun. The rooms are a tad small as most European hotels are. I highly recommend using Bucket List. It makes everything so much easier and you are guaranteed a good spot in the tents. Prost!

Lots of fun and highly organized

Connor, Toby and the entire BLE team provided a epic Oktoberfest trip! We did not have to worry or plan anything! They handled hotels, tents and excursions. BLE is highly organized and easy to get along with. Very friendly yet professional, they made us feel like long time friends. We had a large group that was not easy to “corral” and they did nit miss a beat! We will definitely use them again for our next Bucket List Event!

Our trip to Oktoberfest with Bucket…

Our trip to Oktoberfest with Bucket List was awesome! They were so communicative, easy to reach, responded quickly. I wouldn’t use anyone else. We are planning to go back and will use them again.
We compared prices with doing it on our own and using them and price was about the same but feel like we got so much more. Toby, Ben, Emily, (forgot others, sorry) were so much fun!

Bucket list & Bull Run combo made in heaven!

Back in July my wife and I travelled to Pamplona to run with the bulls. (My wife was too smart to actually run) we decided to use the services of Bucket list events. We couldn’t have asked for more. Connor and Toby have planned one of the greatest vacations we have ever been on. The restaurants we visited, the parades, the opening ceremony, the bull fights, and of course the bull run gave us an experience unmatched. Both of them and their staff catered to our every need, and made sure at every turn we were taken care of. The final 4 days in San Sebastián were the perfect “wind down” from the adrenaline fused Pamplona days. We can’t thank them enough for the professional, spot on excursion they planned for us.

Oktoberfest Group Trip with Bucket List Events

World on the Fly Travel recently partnered with Bucket List Events to organize a group trip for 25 participants to Oktoberfest in September 2025, and we couldn't be happier with the results.

From the start, the Bucket List Events team was exceptionally easy to work with. Their organization and efficiency stood out; they were always quick to respond to our emails and requests, making the planning phase seamless and stress-free.

The on-the-ground support was a huge benefit for our clients. We especially appreciated that Bucket List Events has representatives who stay at the participating hotels. This made it incredibly convenient for our 25 travelers to stop by with any questions, providing a level of accessibility and reassurance that is hard to match.

Their guides are truly fantastic. They didn't just facilitate transport from the hotel to the venue; they stayed at the event with our clients, enhancing the entire experience. These guides are not only fun to spend time with but are also full of knowledge about both Oktoberfest and the surrounding region. It's clear that they genuinely love their jobs, and that enthusiasm is contagious.

The seamless collaboration and high-quality service provided by Bucket List Events ensured our first group trip to Oktoberfest was a resounding success for World on the Fly Travel and our clients.

We look forward to working with Bucket List Events again for future group and custom trips. They are an invaluable partner for delivering top-tier experiences to major world events.

Best group!

Bucket list events plans every detail so perfect as well as is so helpful with anything you need. Their guides are very nice and make your experience as amazing as possible! I’m very happy with my experience with them two years in a row for Oktoberfest. I can’t wait to plan another event with them in the future

Exceeded Expectations!

This event exceeded our expectations! We plan to book others as Connor and crew not only ensured a seamless experience between activities and travel but they went over and beyond to make sure we got the most out of it. Our family is still talking about it today and highly recommend Bucket List to all of our friends and family.

Perfect choice

My husband and I joined with Bucket List Events for the Running with the Bulls Festival in Pamplona and (thanks to Connor Maytnier) added Barcelona before and San Sebastián after through them. We had an outstanding time with beautiful, perfectly located accommodations in each city. We cannot say enough about this staff (special thanks to Connor and Karina) who made sure we were well prepared for our trip and went out of their way to ensure we had an amazing time. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and look forward to joining them again for another fun event. Highest recommendations!

Bucket List Events Rock!

Thank you to the Bucket List Events team for an unforgettable 2025 Running of the Bulls! Their professionalism and personable staff included Jules, Peter, Dara, Nahia, Bea, Laura & Kennedy. Some staff are interns with fascinating experiences to share, others are more seasoned and have been running this event for years and do this full-time with events throughout the world. They were attentive and able to anticipate and navigate the chaos of the festival effortlessly. They provided our group with the tips and tricks an insider is looking for to have a smooth and enjoyable experience. There was just the right amount of pre-festivity communication via email providing us with updates, suggestions, videos to watch, what to wear, what to see, what top do. They really covered all of their bases. The Hotel Tres Reyes, where we stayed, is a first class hotel with a pool, gym and restaurant/bar. It is conveniently located within walking distance of the San Fermin and Running of the Bulls festivities. There are restaurants, pharmacies and shopping stores within reasonable walking distance of the hotel. My son and husband bought white pants from a street vendor as their uniform for the bull run. RWTB provides you with a special t-shirt that is super cool. I was asked multiple times where I got my shirt because people wanted to buy one. You never know how a tour will turn-out, but I can tell you that The Bucket List team has you 100% covered. Highly recommend and you are guaranteed to have a great time and make a great memory!

Awesome Experience!

We traveled with Bucket List Events to Pamplona to run with the bulls. It was a great experience and everything was organized and high quality! All of the hosts that were working with the company were great! We had a blast and would recommend it in a heartbeat. We want to do it again!

Running of the bulls memorable experience

I took my daughter on a trip to Spain and Italy. A big part of our trip was to experience the running of the bulls in Pamplona. We enjoyed our time there and they even gave us better seating. We were able to watch comfortably at dead man's curve. We were served food and mingled with the other visitors and locals. My Bucket List Events is highly professional and very accommodating. It was a most memorable event. I feel proud and confident when I wear my tshirt from the event.
