Germany
Trip Planning & Itineraries
Germany wears its riches well: elegant big-city charm, 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 are all there for the savoring.
Deep in the heart of Europe, Germany has had a seminal impact on Continental history. From Charlemagne and the Holy Roman Empire to Otto von Bismarck's German Reich, Nazism and the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall, no other nation has molded Europe the way Germany has - for better or worse.
Day tour to Neuschwanstein & Linderhof Castles
Visit Linderhof, the smallest of King Ludwig's castles. Then continue on to Neuschwanstein, a magnificent neo-Romanesque style castle and quite possibly the most well-known castle in the world. This is one of Viator's top-rated tours in Germany.
Tour the Romantic Road
All visitors to Germany should experience the Romantic Road. This tour from Munich covers Harburg, one of the best-preserved castles in Germany, and Rothenburg, the most perfectly preserved medieval town in Europe.
Dinner & Concert at Charlottenburg Palace in Berlin
Charlottenburg Palace is a sumptuous building in the heart of Berlin. This unique tour includes candlelight dinner at the palace followed by a concert by the Berlin Residence Orchestra. Bravo.
Best of Germany: Top Hotels
In addition to these options, find a self catered accommodation in Germany from Owners Direct.
This has to be one of the most stunning of Frankfurt's skyscrapers. An imposing red brick tower overlooking the river, it's built to look like one of New York's 1930s edifices, but is in fact only a few years old. The interior design also oozes retro, American-style class. In the summer, seats outside on the cobbled square allow you to sip cocktails while watching the boats on the river nearby. Climb to the 23rd-floor viewing terrace for spectacular city views.
This huge hotel overlooks the heart of Hamburg's harbor. To guarantee a front-facing room you must book a two-night package, but views are among the best in town. Otherwise, ascend to the 14th-floor Tower Bar, the maritime-themed Hotel Hafen's most famous feature. The core of the building is a former seaman's home that boasts the best views, plus an ornate staircase, a cozy sailors' bar with lots of nets and ships' figureheads, and a restaurant with a harbor-side terrace.
This family-run hotel is one of the best value-for-money picks near the main train station. Its central location puts you within minutes of Marienplatz, the Hofbrauhaus and other Munich attractions. No matter whether you're traveling for business or pleasure, you'll feel well taken care of the moment you step into the small lobby of this delightful property.
Suggested Itineraries in Germany
Germans love to party, and kick up their heels at everything from pagan harvest romps to black tie opera galas. The Winter Carnival (Fasching) season occurs throughout Germany, with big cities such as Cologne (Köln), Munich and Mainz erupting into commotion just before Ash Wednesday.
Autumn is a great time for harvest-inspired mayhem, especially in the Rhineland, where the Rhine in Flames frolics feature barges laden with fireworks. Christmas fairs are embraced wholeheartedly by German families; they occur in Munich, Nuremberg, Lübeck, Berlin, Münster and Heidelberg, amongst other places.
