My son has a 3 month internship at the university in Erlangen and as part of a longer trip will be visiting him. I have been looking for pensions, so happy to take any recommendations but Erlangen is not so much an area that draws American tourists it seems. As my son will be working, I plan on day trips around the area to Nuremberg, Munich, etc -- I will have RS Germany for the major sites, but would happy to get any suggestions for other things to see/do. Bamberg worthwhile? Also, maybe Dresden.
Need to get to Krakow from Nurenberg. At least using DB website train is not looking like the way to go. Probably bus, but I am not sure how to find the bus routes so could use some help on how to find bus schedules or what are the main bus routes. Alternately, might go to Poznan, Warsaw or Wroclaw first depending on the transportation. Just need to crack the code on best transport to get their. DB wants me to train up to Berlin and buses from there, but that is going very north, just to come back south for Krakow. Get to Prague and bus from there? Just need the bus equivalent of bahn.com (which clearly is not something that exists). Thanks for any ideas.
