We have almost finalized our itinerary for our winter (Christmas Market-ish) trip! We arrive in Rothenburg November 28th (night train from Budapest) and will stay for 2 nights. From Rothenburg we will go to Nuremberg from Nov 30-Dec 4th. We have a day trip to Regensburg planned for 1 day, and would consider another day trip from there. Suggestions for another day trip are welcome!
From Nuremberg we will go to either Frankfurt or Cologne. Opinions on which city is best? We enjoy museums, old town atmosphere, and good eats. If it's Frankfurt we will definitely take a day trip to Cologne to see the Cathedral and a Christmas Market or two.
If it seems we are missing Munich, castles, The Rhine, etc--we have been to Germany twice before, so we're focusing on new places.
Opinions? Suggestions?
(We fly out of Frankfurt, and will definitely stay near the airport the night before)
Thanks in advance for any advice!
