Best Time To Visit
Due to the annual Oktoberfest, autumn becomes the most busy tourist season as it draws thousands of fun-loving tourists and travellers to wash down roast chicken and sausages with a pint of Bavaria's legendary beer. However, hotels often inflate their prices during this time of year, which means you might pay quadruple rates for a room. Spring season is specially for those who are on a budget travel when a plethora of much more affordable folk festivals are held such as Festival of Strong Beer or the Starkbierfest, in March and the traditional celebration of spring, the Maibaumaufstellen, on May 1.
