Going on a beer hike with Rich was definitely one a highlight of our German holiday! He organize our trek along the Fünf Seidla Steig. All we had to do was show up at the Nuremberg train station ready to hike and drink some beer! If you're in the area and love beer, consider going on a Beerwander tour. We booked our trip directly on his website. Rich quickly answered our email question and made sure we were prepared for our adventure.
We lucked out and had amazing weather. It was a wonderful experience being able to hike through the Franconia countryside stopping at some off the beaten path breweries to "hydrate". The hiking makes room for more beer. Trying new beers is motivation for more hiking. It's a nice pairing.
Rich was an amazing guide and delightful companion for the day. We learned all about the history of the breweries we visited and general German beer culture.
Besides our hike, Rich's website is filled with some gems of recommendations in the area. He provides great beer tips across all of Bavaria (where to go and...
Read moreWe couldn’t have found a more perfect guide for our tour than Rich. He truly has a passion for hospitality and service - and of course, beer. We were a group of 8, based in Nuremberg for the weekend. Rich coordinated the entire trip for us from start to finish, including booking train tickets in advance. It was seamless. We lucked out with the weather: not too hot - not too cold. We traversed the countryside and visited 5 breweries. The level of freshness with the beer and food is something that has to be experienced there: it was amazing. Rich was genuine and friendly: he had great stories and knew so much about the beer, food, and history. He jived with everyone in our group and they all raved about how wonderful an experience this was. Don’t wait to book a trip with Rich at...
Read moreMy husband and I just spent an amazing day with Rich Carbonara, hiking through the Bamberg countryside and stopping at rural breweries along the way. My husband loves German beer and I love hiking so we booked the Bamberg Countryside tour with Rich for our August vacation in Bavaria. It was so pleasant getting out into the countryside and visiting small breweries we never would have found on our own. Rich shared so much information about types of German beer and the brewery process, but it was a joy to visit with him about the German culture and language as well. I highly recommend Beer Wanderers. I will be booking another beer/hiking experience with Rich on my next visit to Germany, which I...
