Overnight stays by tourists: Bavaria narrowly misses the 2019 record. Booking a holiday home was one of the most popular ways to go on holiday in the Free State in 2023.

In 2023, almost 39 million tourists came to Bavaria and there were 100 million overnight stays, according to the state office. German tourists will also make up the clear majority of the total number of tourists, at 80 percent. In some Bavarian cities and districts, tourists have to pay extra for overnight stays.
