One free for every 5 paying passengers
$2996 per person - New York

What does the one free for every 5 paying passengers mean?
Very simple. You find 5 people to travel with you on either of the above tour departures and you travel for free. Find 10 people (5 couples) and you receive two free trips. Book 15 people and receive “three free trips”.

It’s as simple as that.
The free passengers do not pay anything. No gimmicks! No catch!

Full day in Oberammergau for the Passion Play. A village in the Bavarian Alps, famous for its woodcarving industry. In the year 1633, the town was stricken by the plague. In desperation the people of the village took an oath that they would stage a performance of the Passion of Jesus every 10 years if the plague would vanish and save their town. The town was saved and the first performance took place in 1634. From 1690 on, the play has been performed regularly every 10 years. The play takes almost eight hours to perform and the 124 speaking parts are performed by inhabitants of the village. The audience is seated in a roofed auditorium while the stage is open-air. Lunch and dinner are included. Following the Passion Play we will transfer to our hotel in Munich for the night.
