Germany’S Romantic Road, Munich & Lake Constance

Itinerary

Description

An area rich in natural beauty, cultural heritage and lively traditions, Germany’s southernmost state of Bavaria has plenty to offer visitors. Together we explore this charming region with a scenic tour of the Romantic Road, one of Germany’s oldest tourist routes, which combines picturesque medieval walled towns of half-timbered houses with idyllic scenery. We also discover Munich, the capital city of Bavaria, and Lindau, a charming old island town on the eastern shores of Lake Constance.

Day 3 – Germany’s Romantic Road

Day 4 – Day at leisure

Day 5 – Munich

We visit Munich, the capital of Bavaria and one of Germany’s most attractive cities. Lying near the foot of the German Alps, the city is famous for its beautiful architecture including the Frauenkirche, its largest church with its two dome-topped Gothic towers, and the City Hall in the Marienplatz, a lively square in the heart of the city.

Day 6 – Optional excursion to Nuremberg including entrance to the Nazi Rally Grounds (£22pp)

Join an optional excursion to the charming city of Nuremberg, famous for its medieval walls, Gothic churches and ancient castle which dominates the skyline. Despite having been severely damaged in World War Two, many of the city's medieval buildings have been painstakingly restored to their former glory. Our visit includes entrance to the former Nazi Rally Grounds, a vast area covering almost 11 square kilometres, scattered with the ruins of monumental structures, where Nazi party rallies were held between 1933 and 1938.

Day 7 – Lindau in Lake Constance

Our destination today is the town of Lindau, uniquely located on an island on the eastern side of Lake Constance, set against a stunning backdrop of mountains. Explore the historic buildings, lively squares and picturesque alleyways of the Old Town, stroll along the lakeside promenade or head to the bustling harbour where the entrance is flanked by a Bavarian lion and lighthouse.

Day 8

Travel to our overnight hotel in France, stopping en-route in the ancient university city of Heidelberg. A light evening meal is included tonight. 

Continue to Calais for our return ferry home.
