Germany
Germany'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.

Trip Summary

Stuttgart
Situated in a beautiful area of Swabian Mountains, Stuttgart has an important cultural tradition, reflected in the famous Staatstheater - with the worldwide known Opera and Ballet - and also the Philharmonic and musical theaters. Badly destroyed during the war, Stuttgart imposes itself more like a modern city, home of the Mercedes Benz factory and museum. You may enjoy the silence of the extensive parks and the Black Forrest woodland, take a City Circuit walk or taste the famous local wines.
Visit the Mercedes-Benz Museum, Stuttgart State Gallery, Stuttgart TV Tower, Wilhelma Zoo and Botanical Garden, the Old Castle (Altes Schloss) and New Castle (Neues Schloss), and more! -
Fussen
Füssen, often called the romantic soul of Bavaria, is famed for its location being in the kings nook (Königswinkel), and its closeness to King Ludwig`s dream castle. Situated on one of the most scenic German holiday routes, the Romantic Road (Romantische Straße), starts (or ends) here. The area is surrounded by beautiful nature, history and the most famous German Castles, as well as rolling hills, green meadows, and the peaks of the Alps. The scenery is breathtaking, especially on a sunny day.
Explore Neuschwanstein Castle, Schloss Hohenschwangau, Museum der Bayerischen Könige, Tegelberg Cable Car, Museum Füssen, Medieval Town Center, Lake Forggensee, Kloster St. Mang, Wieskirche Church, and so much more! -
Garmisch-Partenkirchen
The twin villages of Garmisch and Partenkirchen make up Germany's top alpine resort. In spite of their urban flair, the towns maintain the charm of an ancient village, especially Partenkirchen. Even today, you occasionally see country folk in traditional dress, and you may be held up in traffic while the cattle are led from their mountain-grazing grounds down through the streets of town. In 1936 it was the site of the Winter Olympic Games. Traditionally, a ski jumping contest is held in Garmisch-Partenkirchen on New Year's Day, as a part of the Four Hills Tournament (Vierschanzen-Tournee). A variety of Ski World Cup Races are also held here, usually on the Kandahar Track outside town. The 1978 Alpine World Skiing Championships were organized in Garmisch and the Alpine World Ski Championships 2011 is to be held there as well. Visit Partnachklamm, the Wankbahn, the Olympic Ski Jump, Alpspix, Seilbahn Zugspitze, Riessersee, Ludwigstraße, and so much more!

Munich
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 all over 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.
