Hello travelers,
My wife and I will be traveling from Nov 20 - Dec 11, landing in Frankfurt continuing from there via train for the whole trip.
Our itinerary is as follows:
Frankfurt - 1 night
Berlin - 5 nights
Wroclaw - 4 nights
Prague - 4 nights
Nuremburg - 4 nights
Frankfurt - 2 nights.
I already have our EUrail pass for the 5 travel days between each destination. Accomodations have not been booked yet so still have some flexibility and open to suggestions. Packing carry on only obviously and we don't mind cold and rainy weather. We are 27 and 31, wife is vegetarian 😬.
A main highlight of the trip will be experiencing the Xmas markets and decorations in all the places we will be.
I wanted to ask the group for other tips/suggestions/experience's they had for those areas or travelling during the winter season. My travel experience has mostly been during shoulder seasons so also interested in any closures or difficulties associated with winter travel. I have been to Prague before, but the other locations will be new for both of us.
In terms of our interests, we are interested in WW2 and historical sites, hikes/walks (within reason of weather and availability without a car), cultural experiences, food and drinks.
I have traveled a fair amount, mostly in Europe and am a firm Rick Steves disciple 😅. I always value the RS forum and tips from the travel community, so thank you everyone for your information and help.
Cheers,
Armando
