Oktoberfest Trip-any additional cities to see?

Headed to Munich-Oktoberfest for a bro trip (all in our early 30s) and then ending the trip in Paris with 2 days to spend in a 3rd city before Paris. Any recommendations? Cities thrown around in our group so far have been Barcelona, Copenhagen, Budapest, and Amsterdam. Maybe Prague? Definitely want to take advantage of the nightlife. Also, any day trips worth making from Munich? Was looking at Kufstein for example. Thanks for the help.

Salzburg is an easy train trip from Munich. Worth some time IMO.

Have you ever been to Munich? How many days in Oktoberfest? I recommend a good 3 days at Oktoberfest: one to show up early when it opens, one at night and close it down, and one to enjoy the entire grounds. You can do the first and last together.
Munich is a Great city especially for young people. Most people do too much imo in trying to fit in Oktoberfest and Munich. Maybe go to Neuschwanstein? That’s the obvious day trip.
I’d do something between Munich and Paris though if you are going to stay the night.

Haven’t been to Cop or Bud so I can’t speak on those. If only 2 days, I would suggest:
Prague - cheap, good food, good mix of nightlife and history. Checks all the boxes. And fun all around.
Amsterdam - party, party, party...can get expensive depending on your tastes
Barcelona - favorite city of the 3. Best food of the bunch and the women are spectacular. Beach is amazing. But I went in June so not sure of the weather in Oct. Stay at the Ritz if you have the means
I would think Prague is the easiest to travel to if Munich is entry point. And I would go there. Hit up Barcelona your next Europe trip and make Lisbon your entry point. That’s another trip in itself
Hard to give accurate advice without knowing budget, interests, relationship status and drug use

You could do Salzburg, Innsbruck, Zurich on the way to Paris. You may lose a lot of time traveling to a few of those places.

Berchtesgaden is not far, and very close to Salzburg.
Berchtesgaden includes Das Kehlsteinhaus (Hitler's Eagle's Nest)

im 28 so maybe I can help.
A few months ago I did the following
Prague - good beer scene, good nightlife, good prices.
Amsterdam is crazy nightlife and really crazy everything.
Budapest was a blast. A ton of small little bar joints, amazing prices.
Under the radar - Bratislava. A few strip clubs and a few bars all next to each other, had my favorite night out on my whole trip there.
Vienna was much better than I thought too for nightlife.
can you jump over to London?

I was stationed in Stuttgart while in the Air Force. It’s a really nice city to visit and not that far from Munchen.

Flying out Sunday, doing Munich for a few days then off to Prague for a couple days and then close out the trip in Paris. Any additional tips for Munich/Prague? Paris will be more sight seeing and winding down from Munich/Prague ![](https://images.tigerdroppings.com/Images/Icons/IconLOL.gif)

Go to Copenhagen. Get stoned with your bros in Freetown Christiania, look at some badass beer money art at the Glyptotek. See the Art Museum. Take a cabal boat ride. Have a badass steak at MASH. Go to Tivoli if it’s open. 2 days if tight, but you can see a lot.

Day trip from Munich - Go to Neuschwanstein (with reservations) and stop at Andechs monastery/brewery on the way back to Munich.
A sign above a lavatory in the bathroom at the brewery/beer hall -- "puke and rally" -- is one of the most memorable things about our trip in 2015.

Volksfest in Stuttgart is second only to Munich in size and it’s 3 hours by train from there to Paris. Salzburg is also a cool town but it’s not known for any nightlife scene, plus it’s in the opposite direction. Bertchesgarten, Neuschweinstein, Linderhof, etc are cool destinations but you’d need to explore car options and they’re all in remote areas. Last thing- when you order your first beer or two ask for a sauerradler, which is half sparkling water and half beer. There’s a difference in being hammered and time traveling. Macht Spass!
