While in Munich, Arno's Bear Cruises will organize excursions to some amazing places like the Neu-Schwanstein Castle (Disney's castle is modeled after that), Garmisch Partenkirchen, a beautiful town with the possibility to go up to the highest mountain in Germany, The Zugspitze. And Dachau, a historical place from World War II. Other excursions are in the making.
The Marriott in Munich will be the host hotel for our stay. Because of Oktoberfest, there will be a 4 night minimum stay in Munich. Other hotels can be booked upon request, however the host hotel will be the primary meeting point for excursions. The morning of September 21st make your way to the host hotel with your luggage and you are all set.
On September 21 we will walk from the host hotel to the Oktoberfest for Pink Sunday. Get there early to get a seat. The tent will be packed with LGBT families. In the afternoon we will walk back to the Marriott, about 30 minutes, and we will make our way to Passau where we board the vessel.
