THE mUNICH HOTEL COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER BATHROOM DRAIN SLOW AND SHOWER DRAIN DIDNT DRAIN
Best of GermanyActually, I worked with our agent, Mina Abdelmalak, to design a custom tour of Germany. It was an excellent experience. Mina was very hands on, presented numerous options, helped me select the tours that best fit our interests (which wasn’t easy as it was a large group) and supported us every step of the way. Not only did Mina spend a lot of time planning, each day I received a message which instructions and copies of all the vouchers we would need. I never had to go digging for them. It turned out that one tour had been modified without notice to Mina or me.. Mina jumped on it immediately and within 48 hours I received appropriate compensation from the tour company. Mina booked all of our hotels and train fare. Everything was perfect. He checked with me every day to make sure all was going according to plan. My grandkids felt very spoiled too. All the tour guides in Germany were very good and one was exceptional. It was pretty much a perfect trip. Largely thanks to Mina’s hard work, I am now Super Grandma and we now have wonderful lifelong memories of our days together.
9 Day Germany By Train-Munich, Frankfurt, Berlin And HamburgThe staff and crew were extremely helpful and went out of their way to help. The ship was nice, not luxurious but more than adequate for us. Comfy casual atmosphere made the cruise perfect for us. The only fault was not realizing very few people onboard spoke fluent English. Thus socializing with other passengers was limited. I will ask about this before booking any future cruises.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
The Christmas Markets Rhine cruise sets out from Düsseldorf when autumn's cool air settles in, connecting medieval towns like Rüdesheim, Mainz and also Cologne. Our comprehensive 24-destination route reveals its charm as seasonal changes sweep through - you'll appreciate Munich's beer halls during harvest celebrations, while Dresden's baroque architecture glows against the autumn leaves. Our travelers tell us how the mild temperatures make exploring cities more pleasant, whether discovering Berlin's Museum Island or exploring the lanes of Frankfurt's historic center. The Rhine and Moselle valleys truly come alive this season, as vineyard-covered hills shift to rich autumn shades and local harvest festivals add cultural depth to your travels. For those drawn to premium experiences, the 12-day tours include special moments like castle dining in 13th-century halls and taking in Berlin's panoramic views from the TV Tower, made even better by autumn's crisp, clear skies.

- Winter 2026 / 2027
Winter in Germany really comes into its own, especially during holiday season. The Rhine river cruises connecting Düsseldorf and Cologne take you right to those classic Christmas markets in old medieval spots like Rüdesheim and Mainz. Our guests tell us they love how the tours mix guided walks through historic areas with enough free time to explore the market stalls at their own pace. When you take the Christmas Markets route from Berlin through Leipzig and Dresden, you'll get both city discoveries and seasonal traditions - there's fresh Christstollen cake with hot Glühwein while learning what locals have been doing here for centuries. The Gendarmenmarkt in Berlin and Dresden's Frauenkirke look particularly special all lit up for winter. We've made sure the winter routes include plenty of indoor stops and warm breaks at local restaurants and cafes.

- Spring 2027
Spring opens Germany up nicely - April and May bring just the right temperatures for exploring. Our multi-city tours from Berlin make good use of the clear spring days; you can see forever from the TV Tower and the Tiergarten's gardens are starting to bloom. The Rhine and Moselle valley routes work really well this time of year, with the vineyard terraces turning green and river cruises back in full swing. You'll find the castles like Neuschwanstein and Heidelberg less crowded, plus they look great against the spring mountain scenery. It's when beer garden culture kicks off too - in Munich you'll find yourself sharing benches with locals and trying Bavarian specialties in the fresh air.

Summer lets you experience everything Germany has to offer, from cities right through to countryside. Our main route covers 24 different places, showing you how each region makes the most of warm weather - whether you're swimming in Munich's English Garden, taking a boat through the Danube Gorge or walking the Black Forest paths. The long summer days mean more time to explore medieval towns like Rothenburg and Quedlinburg, which our travelers really appreciate. Hamburg's harbor is busy with boat tours and Berlin's Museum Island stays open into the evening. The Brothers Grimm route through central Germany really comes alive in summer - castle gardens are in full bloom and you can walk the forest paths between fairy tale towns.
