Looking to travel in Germany in May/June of 2026. Looks like Frankfurt is best city to fly into, but also could look at Munich. Planning to rent a car for at least part of our trip; wanting to visit Heilbronn where I lived in 1980's. Also want to visit Berlin and Munich, but open to many other cities as well. Interested in a self-driven tour with help for accommodations and guides, also would consider a coach trip if we still have time to explore on our own.

Self drive is a very good option, since you are flexible on time and for 4 people, it will be even cheaper than travelling with trains or buses. I will suggest to start in Munich, do some bus trips in the area, then have a van or a car rental and start your road trip passing by Heilbronn and other cities around the area. Then, you can finish in Berlin with another free days to explore the city and surrounding areas with a guide.

My husband and I chose this tour specifically because it was by train and we could see so much. I have been on bus tours and didn’t want to spend days on a bus. We stayed in Frankfurt a couple days more at the beginning and we loved that. Old town Frankfurt is beautiful. We had one day in both Cologne and Bremen and felt it was enough. They are both beautiful though! Hamburg is a gorgeous port city. The Miniatur Wunderland is definitely worth the visit - it is incredible. And then the boat tour and hop on/hop off bus was also great to have. We felt that we saw so much in Hamburg in 2 days. Berlin has a guided tour, Potsdam and Sachsenhausen. All of these were great to see. We also went to Museum Island and saw a few of the museums too. I love WWII history so we got our fill of it here. Then Munich, I love Munich. We walked the Marienplatz and then there was the day trip to Linderhof and Neuschwanstein. We paid to go inside (which is extra) and we felt it was worth seeing. I did not know that Neuschwanstein was unfinished but what is there is extravagant. We also took in several beer halls including Hofbrauhaus. I think if we had another day in Munich, it would have been better (but that’s another reason to go back!). We were in constant contact with Javi, our guide, through WhatsApp. He would answer questions and offer suggestions throughout the trip. This is also how you receive your vouchers. It was the perfect balance of being on our own and being with a guided tour. There was some confusion over the transfers from the Frankfurt airport (our flight was late and the driver had left) and train stations (we didn’t know where to go), but Javi walked us through it as it happened - minor hiccups. Overall, it was an excellent trip and we would use Eurolatino tours again to help us see more of Europe by train.Show more
