A fun, refreshing vacation package in Germany to revitalize your spirit!. Begin in Frankfurt (famous for its buzzing nightlife, diversity, historic old town, and its cultural wealth); after that, visit Koblenz (known for its monument at Deutsches Eck or the -German Corner-) , Erfurt (known for the spires of its cathedral and numerous churches and the place where Martin Luther studied and became a monk) and Leipzig (interesting city with a wonderful mix of culture and inventive spirit that shapes the city and attracts many artists and creative folk). Finally enjoy Berlin (a cultural capital; art, theater, opera, dance - there is no shortage of activities here). All connected with a Rental Car. This is a flexible vacation package. Select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities.
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!
2 nights in Koblenz
Koblenz has a rich history dating back over 2000 years. The city is surrounded by four low mountain ranges and forms a triangle with the Mosel and Rhine rivers. Directly where the Rhine River meets the Mosel River is one of its major landmarks, the so-called German Corner (Deutsches Eck). On top of the hill on the Rhine shore the old fortress, Ehrenbreitstein, overlooks Koblenz and the German Corner. Strolling around the Old Town feels like walking in an open air museum. The many statues and monuments on the squares around town are evidence of the long history that the city is known for.
Visit the Church of Our Lady, German Corner (Deutsches Eck), Fortress (Festung) Ehrenbreitstein, Deutschherrenhaus, Koblenz Palace, Deutscher Kaiser, Schängelbrunnen, Görresplatz, Florinsmarkt, Jesuitenplatz, and so much more!
2 nights in Erfurt
Located in central Germany, Erfurt is the capital city of Turingia. The city was almost perfectly preserved during the wars and retains its old houses, churches, and bridges designed in Renaissance and Baroque styles. Martin Luther, father of the Protestant Reformation, was ordained in the Cathedral of St. Mary, whose origins date to the 8th century. Next to the cathedral is the Gothic Church of St. Severus. The Augustinerkloster is a monastery where Martin Luther lived as a monk. The Krämerbrücke Bridge (1325), stretching over the Gera River, has medieval houses and shops, and is a pleasant place for a stroll.
Visit Erfurt Cathedral, Mariendom church, Severikirche, the Merchants' Bridge, the Augustinian Monastery, Egapark, and more!
2 nights in Leipzig
Goethe once dubbed Leipzig the 'little Paris' of Eastern Europe, though today's crop of locals are more likely to compare its budding arts and tech sectors to that of post-Wall Berlin in the early '90s, bursting with a raw and invigorating subculture of young, high-energy creatives. Over the past two decades, Leipzig has again become a destination, as it was years ago when it was known for its intellectual and cultural life. It is a metropolis that grew rich from hosting international trade fairs, publishing books, and processing cotton.
Explore Market Square, the Old Town Hall, St Thomas Church, St Nicholas Church, Battle of the Nations Monument, Madlerpassage, Coffe Baum Coffee Museum, Leipzig Zoo, Museum of Fine Arts, and so much more!
2 nights in Berlin
The German capital holds a world cultural record with three opera houses, two concert halls and eight symphony orchestras. This is the heart of Germany, with a stoic beat that echoes through grand public buildings, glorious museums and theatres, urbane restaurants, bustling pubs and raucous nightclubs. Today, structures of steel and glass tower over streets, and parks and gardens are again lush. With its field of new skyscrapers and hip clubs and fashion boutiques, post millennium Berlin has recast itself as the continent's capital of cool.
Visit Brandenburg Gate, Reichstag, Berlin Cathedral, Museum Island, Berlin TV Tower, Holocaust Memorial, Berlin Wall Memorial, Check Point Charlie 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.
