Traveling after oktober fest place ideas..

Hey guys.

In around 5 weeks ill be heading off on my 1st solo trip overseas. Iv got a list of countrys i want to visit but am fairly clueless on the towns ill be heading to and looking for some ideas.

Im 24 and love a party. Looking for livley places where i can meet people easily.

I also have a love for good beer and could consume the stuff over oxygen all day every day so seeing places that make some of the worlds best beers is right up there for me..

I fly over to London and am staying their for 2 days before getting on a contiki tour for Oktoberfest. Ill be staying there in tents for 6 days. After this im totally free and have no plans.

Iv got a train pass to travel to the following countrys.

My list goes.

London
Germany
Austria
Italy
Belgium
Ireland

In that order, iv been told a few places to head to like Brugge but apart from that kinda going with the flow and hoping to meet people on the contiki to travel with.

But think i should atleast have some ideas of places incase i end up alone.

Cheers guys.

Then you should stick to the usual party spots around the Med. Ibiza, coasts of Croatia and Bulgaria, Lloret de Mar in Spain, Siofok in Hungary, ...

But your time of travel might not be the best time for partying there.

The big cities are also not too bad, I know Berlin has a great szene.

Prague = Europe's version of Tijuana, there isn't anything legal or illegal that you cannot get in Prague. Amsterdam has the same for higher prices which are set off by higher safety at night.

Great beers: Definitely visit the Czech Republic. Plzen and C. Budovice are pretty much the beer towns in Europe. (Homes of the first lager and of Budweiser.) Combine it with a visit to Cesky Krumlov.
