Tailor-made Germany holidays shaped around your passions
Birthplace of Beethoven, Einstein and Nietzsche, Germany offers far more to its visitors than its reputation for efficiency, bratwurst and beer. Our specialists would argue that it’s one of the most overlooked holiday destinations in Europe, its cosmopolitan cities are packed with historical charm as well as cutting-edge architecture and contemporary quirks. They’ll help you uncover the highlights of Berlin, including Checkpoint Charlie, the remnants of its infamous wall and trendy open-air markets.
With our specialists’ help, you can plan a holiday to Germany that takes in everything from Cologne’s glorious cathedral to Munich’s Oktoberfest and the Black Forest valleys. You could sample riesling wine in the Rhine Valley or follow hiking trails in the Bavarian Alps. Come to marvel at the theatrical excess of Neuschwanstein or the legacy of Mahler, Brahms and Mendelssohn in Hamburg, explore half-timbered houses in Alpine valleys, glittering Christmas markets or the darker, more poignant reminders of World War II.
