Here is a Germany that you definitely should see by train!. Visit Munich (famous for its beautiful architecture, fine culture, and the annual Oktoberfest beer celebration) and after that, visit Heidelburg (a city with a dreamy, romantic setting around the Old Bridge and the castle, nestled between the Neckar River and the foothills of the Odenwald forest) and Mainz (the city of Gutenberg and Germany's wine capital). Finally, Frankfurt (known for being the financial capital of the EU, and for its famous for its buzzing nightlife, diversity, historic old town, and its cultural wealth). This is a flexible vacation package. Select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities.
Big city style and rural charm, Alpine character and Mediterranean verve, art treasures and the Oktoberfest, traditional customs and high technology, beer gardens and haute cuisine, operas and cool bars; these are all ingredients that makes Bavaria's state capital so endlessly fascinating, and so popular with visitors from around the world. Sprawling Munich is one of Germany's major cultural centers, second only to Berlin in terms of museums and theaters. It's also one of Germany's most festive cities, and its location, at the foot of the Alps, is idyllic. Munich's self-imposed image is that of a fun-loving and festival-addicted city - typified by its Oktoberfest.
Explore Marienplatz and the New Town Hall of Munich, Frauenkirche - Cathedral of Our Blessed Lady, Dachau Concentration Camp, The English Garden, Beer Halls, Viktualienmarkt, Residence Palace of Munich, Deutsches Museum, Museums Ensemble: Alte Pinakothek, Neue Pinakothek, Pinakothek der Moderne, Olympic Stadium of Munich, BMW Museum and much more.
2 nights in Heidelberg
Heidelberg is home to a 13th century castle, the oldest university in Germany, and the longest pedestrian street in Europe. The city is situated below the mountains, and flanks the river Neckar in southwest Germany. Tourists flock here for its charming old town and rich history as well as its stunning landscapes, shops, cafes, and beautiful architecture. In addition to universities, Heidelberg hosts many internationally renowned research institutes and research-based companies.
Explore Heidelberg Castle, Wine Barrel - The great Tun, walk through the Altstadt (old town), the Old Bridge, University Library and Museum, Student Karzer, the Neckar River, Neuenheim, Philosopher's Walk, Thingstatte Open Air Theater, and so much more!
2 nights in Mainz
Situated on the Rhine River, Mainz was founded by the Romans 38 BC. Its 2,000 year heritage is revealed by both Roman relics and the impressive baroque palaces and churches built by talented architects and sculptors in the 17th century. Mainz is known for its old town, with half-timbered houses and medieval market squares. In the center, the Marktbrunnen is a Renaissance fountain with red columns. Nearby, a distinctive octagonal tower tops the Romanesque Mainz Cathedral, built from deep red sandstone. The Gutenberg Museum honors the inventor of the printing press with exhibits, including two of his original bibles.
Explore Biebrich Palace, Kurfürstliches Schloss, Kunsthalle Mainz, Schloss Park, Zollhafen Mainz, and so much more!
2 nights in Frankfurt
Frankfurt is the financial capital of Germany. A closer look reveals there is much more to offer; from arts, outdoors, and shopping, to historic buildings and high-rises. It has long been an important center for cultural and tourism activities. Its huge trade fair complex, Messe Frankfurt, hosts important events such as the Frankfurt Book Fair (the world's most important publishing event). The city is known for its exceptional number of fine museums covering art, science, and history. The traditional cider pubs in Sachsenhausen and the 'Fressgass' (eating street) should not be missed.
Visit the Romerberg, Museum District (Museumsufer), The Palm Garden (Palmengarten), St. Bartholomew's Cathedral, The Hauptwache, Goethe House and Museum, The Frankfurt Museum of Modern Art, Zoo Frankfurt, Stadel Museum, and so much more!
<b>Germany</b>'s landscape is straight from the Fairy tales: castles, deep dark forests and mythical rivers. The German landscapes are extraordinarily diverse, with graceful big-city appeal, small picture-postcard towns, pagan-inspired harvest festivals, a wealth of art and culture, and the perennial pleasures of huge tracts of forest, delightful castles and fine wine and beer. From Charlemagne and the Holy Roman Empire to the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, no other nation has molded Europe the way Germany has - for better or worse.
