This was the first time me and my family used Bucket List events. I wasn’t referred, I just booked the trip hoping for a great time at the Macy’s Day Parade. Our experience exceeded our expectations. I know first hand how tough it is trying to organize a large group. Bucket list Events did so without a hitch. Everything was wonderful. The accommodations at the Lotte Palace were top 10. A BEAUTIFUL hotel that spewed the holiday festivities. The day of the parade was crisp and cold. Having a venue to have breakfast prior and lunch after made the event all the more enjoyable. You could view the parade from inside or stand up front on the sidewalk cheering the parade characters as the came by. The energy was intoxicating. Our visit to the Rockettes certainly put us in the Christmas spirit, and the play, Book of Mormon kept us laughing to the very end. Our seats of five to both events were excellent. We couldn’t have asked for a better kick off to the holiday season. It’s one we will never forget. I would use Bucket List Events again in a heartbeat, and I would recommend them everyday of the week!!!!!

Meticulously planned trip that was truly one bucket list experience after another thanks to Ben’s hard work. The hotel and parade viewing locations could not have been better or more beautiful. Brunch was delicious, our theatre tickets were superb. I could not have asked for more.

The Macy’s Parade Bucket List event far exceeded our expectations! The communication with Ben throughout was excellent. The Lotte Palace Hotel was beautiful and the staff was helpful. All events were well planned and no detail left unturned. The parade/ brunch venue was lovely and the food and service was outstanding. We had a perfect viewing spot for the parade. Ben and his crew patiently answered our questions, and were very personable and attentive throughout our stay. We have recommended this event to all our friends and relatives.

We had the greatest trip of our lives. The staff was so friendly and catered to all our needs. They were there for us during our entire stay and made the trip worry free. I would recommend to anyone wanting a package trip to use Bucket List Events before you book with anyone else. Thanks to all the staff with Bucket List Events for a wonderful and memorable Thanksgiving. I will always use your company for future trips.

The Thanksgiving Parade at Jams was fantastic!!! It was exactly what we were hoping for: the location/view; the food; your staff and the staff at the restaurant were all PERFECT!!! We couldn't have asked for anything more!

I don't know what to say. They were great!! Everything was planned perfectly. They are a very caring group and took very good care of everyone.

Ben was a very personable host that took great care of us! The entire experience was fabulous! We loved the walking food tour and driving tour of Nashville. The CMA awards topped it all off! I would highly recommend Ben and Bucket List Events!

If I could say one thing to convince you to book your Oktoberfest tour with Bucketlist, it would be convenience. From the moment we arrived in Munich—exhausted after an hour and 45 minutes of slogging through customs (German efficiency my arse!)—Bucketlist proved their worth. Our original airport transfer had been accidentally taken by other guests, but Toby and Connor responded immediately and arranged a replacement car within minutes. Considering a taxi or Uber from the airport can easily run over €100, this included accommodation is absolutely not something to overlook. We stayed at Hotel Munich City Center, which ended up being a very convenient home base for the tour. The staff were helpful, the breakfast was solid, and the location made it easy to get around. That said, on my next trip I’ll likely choose Hotel Kraft, simply because it’s closer to the downtown area and has quicker access to shops and more traditional German food options. The only real downside of City Center was our bathroom setup—our shower had no curtain or partition, so the entire floor got soaked every time we used it. We found ourselves requesting extra towels more than once, but the hotel staff always provided them promptly, so while it wasn’t ideal, it never became a significant issue. The welcome dinner at Augustiner Keller was the perfect warm-up to Oktoberfest—amazing food, hearty beer, and such a cozy, festive introduction to the culture. The Bucketlist staff and guides were genuinely wonderful: friendly, knowledgeable, fun to talk to, and incredibly well organized. Tent reservations were seamless and stress-free. Our first tent was the smaller Poschner’s, which was a fantastic, intimate introduction to Oktoberfest tent culture. Paulaner was our second tent and our first big one—and honestly my favorite. Every tent had its own charm and vibe, even during the freak heatwave that pushed temps over 90°F inside. The included drinks and food, plus the guides who helped us navigate ordering, made everything incredibly easy. All we had to worry about was having the time of our lives. Our final large tent was Hofbräu, and yes—it absolutely earns its reputation as the rowdy, fratty party tent. It was wild, loud, chaotic, and ridiculously fun. We also did the day trip to Neuschwanstein Castle, and the Mike’s Bikes guides were honestly better than the audio tour. Their storytelling, humor, and knowledge brought the place to life. Truly incredible people showing off an incredible piece of history. Overall, I would 100% book this experience again. In the tumultuous political climate back home in the U.S., it was refreshing and heartwarming to experience so many people from all over the world simply coming together to have fun without judgment, pretense, or preconceived notions. I loved everyone I met, and I cannot wait to go back. Danke, Toby and Connor—you helped make this a trip of a lifetime.
