Germany

During your time in Germany, visit the famous town of Nuremberg and learn about its fascinating story on this full-day trip from Munich. Today a dynamic and lively city, Nuremberg calls to mind a history of tyrannical rule. With your expert guide, retrace Nuremberg’s story and learn about the birthplace of the Holy Roman Empire of German Nations and the Third Reich empire with a tour of the historic old town. See the mighty Nuremberg Castle and the city walls, visit the churches and monuments and get an in-depth look at the tyranny of Hitler and the leaders of the Third Reich.

Embark on a guided tour of Berchtesgaden, Hitler’s mountain retreat and the southern headquarters of the Nazi party on a full day coach trip from Munich. Eagle’s Nest is a mountain top lodge built by the Nazis, and is a fascinating sight of historical significance. Located at 6,148 feet (1,834 meters) on top of Mt Kehlstein, the lodge has some of Germany’s most amazing views of the Alps mountain range. Ironically, Hitler suffered from vertigo and rarely took pleasure in the views.

Surround yourself with castles and medieval villages as you travel along the Romantic Road during a full day escorted tour from Munich to Harburg and Rothenburg. There’s plenty of free time at each stop, so there’s plenty of time for lunch and exploring at your own leisurely pace.
