I adore Bavaria!

This paradise has been my home for the past twenty two years. The beauty, history, culture, and people have captured my heart, and I love sharing this stunning land with newcomers. For over seven years, I have been a tour guide and small business owner, exposing travelers to my favorite sights, cities, festivals, and breweries. Yet, I am more than your run-of-the-mill tour guide: I am a storyteller, historian, snowboarder, skier, beer connoisseur, and friend. I strive to create the perfect vacation for all of my clients, and it would be my absolute pleasure to showcase Bavaria’s majesty to you!

Bavarian Beer Vacations is the creation of local tour guide Jake Doherty. Originally from the city of Lafayette Louisiana he went on to attend Oglethorpe University in Atlanta Georgia where he studied History and Philosophy with an emphasis on Western Civilization. After university he decided to travel before starting his career in the fast food industry and as the saying goes “He got stuck” in Europe. Eventually he settled in Bavaria and has been there for over eighteen years. He opened all things garmisch in 2010. His business model being to help English speaking travelers with day tours, team building programs, company retreats, and more. His success has lead him to expand that dream with Bavarian Beer Vacations. Since 2012 he has lead small hand picked groups into the heart of Bavaria showing them the history, the culture and the beauty that is Bavaria. Using the festivals and breweries in and around Munich Germany as his backdrop he has created truly unique vacation packages for those wanting to understand, explore and relax in the heart of Bavarian beer culture.
