Germany
Bavarian castles, Black Forest, Berlin's history, and Oktoberfest.
Overview
About this package
Six days through Germany's most storybook region — Neuschwanstein Castle rising from pine forest like something from a Disney sketch (because it was the inspiration), the medieval walled town of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, and Munich's beer halls and lakeside Alpine views. A rich, compact introduction to Bavarian culture, architecture and (very good) beer. Add a Munich beer-hall evening, the half-timbered lanes of Rothenburg ob der Tauber, and a cable car to turquoise Lake Eibsee, and six days deliver Bavaria's full storybook range.
