Oktoberfest 2025 - questions
Hi - we are excited to be ending our river cruise in Munich for Oktoberfest. I asked Tauck already if they can tell us which brewery tent they have reserved for our lunch. They replied that they don't specify. I wanted to know so we can plan for visits in the city to those breweries we don't experience at the fest. Also - want to know if beer(s) are included in our lunch and how many per person. The fest does not take credit card and trying to gauge how many euros we need to bring with to cover our fun. We did learn that we are getting 50 euros per person due to the cancelation of the lunch in Amsterdam, but not sure how that will be paid to us and when.
Any insight is welcome.

I'd expect you'd get the Euros for the Amsterdam lunch in Amsterdam. When ever Tauck has given us cash for a meal it was done so at a convenient moment before that meal. They may not know the brewery as it could change. As to how many beers per person likely 1-2. Since beer is kind of the point 2 wouldn't surprise me. Any other time it would be 1.
Hi KathyRS - We are on the Autumn Along the Rhine cruise too. We are really looking forward to it. We went on the Seine cruise in 2023 and had a wonderful time. How did you learn that lunch in Amsterdam is cancelled? Mary & Ed McDonald
Tauck will take you early to the airport to fly home and you can exchange your euros for dollars. It’s better to be more prepared with euros so you can enjoy all that the Oktoberfest has to experience.
Unless you think you will never be going to Europe again, I advise hanging on to any leftover Euros for your next visit because changing them back again means you lose out on the reverse exchange rate.
