Bavaria

There’s nothing quite like a Bavarian adventure to ignite a passion for German culture. Alpine forests, snow-capped mountain peaks and medieval villages lend a wonderful fairy tale feel to the entire region, while the extravagant castles built by eccentric kings and dukes have fascinating histories to tell. Sample the famous beer and Weisswurst (white sausage, served with pretzels and mustard) in a traditional beer garden – Lederhosen optional.
