Day 1: Fly from any airport in the USA.
Day 2: Upon arrival in Germany, Explore Munich as we head straight to the Marienplatz. This is Munich’s main square, along with Max-Joseph Platz and Odeonsplatz. Here’s where you’ll find Munich’s eye popping grand buildings, though many have been restored to their former glory. If you want the best panoramic view, climb the tower of St. Peter’s Church. You’ll get an eyeful of the majestic Neues Rathaus, or City Hall. If you’re a fan of Mad King Ludwig and his romantic castles in Bavaria, head to St. Michael’s Church to visit his crypt. For lunch, head to Munich’s Victualienmarkt. It’s a thriving outdoor area, fresh bites to go, and a bustling beer garden. Dinner and overnight in Munich.
Day 3: We begins our day at the Munich Residence. The Residenz is a top attraction. The Residenz was the luxe city palace and seat of government of the Wittelsbach dynasty. They were the family that ruled as kings of Bavaria until 1918. The Residenz is a hodgepodge mix of architectural styles — Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, and Neoclassicism. In the afternoon, head out to the beautiful Nymphenburg Palace. The opulent palace is just 30 minutes outside the city center. It’s another enticing Wittlesbach architectural wonder. The 17th century Castle is one of Europe’s best and most beautiful palaces. It has witnessed history — a 7-year-old Mozart concert, an aged King Ludwig cavorting with femme fatale Lola Montez, and the birth of Mad King Ludwig II. Dinner and overnight in Munich.
Day 4: Get up early and visit Fussen, which will be your base for two nights. Tiny Fussen is an enchanting medieval town nestled in the Bavarian mountains. It is an old cultural capital of Europe. It simply could not be more picturesque with its pastel houses and frescoed buildings. As a former center of violin making, Fussen has a violin and lute museum you can visit. Beautiful Baroque St. Mang’s Abbey houses Germany’s oldest fresco. From Fussen, walk or drive to Mad King Ludwig’s castle, Neuschwanstein aka the sleeping beauty castle. Dinner and overnight in Fussen.
Day 5: Visit another Mad King Ludwig castle. Linderhof Palace is decidedly fancier, inside, than Neuschwanstein. You will feel encased in gold inside. Do not forget to explore outside, the gardens are filled with architectural follies. The Venus Grotto and the Moorish Kiosk are a must see. Ettal Abbey is right down the road. You cannot miss the giant green dome emerge between the mountains. The highlight of the abbey is the Rococo basilica. The church houses the monks’ prized possession, a marble Madonna brought from Rome by Ludwig der Bayer in 1330. Dinner and overnight in Fussen.
Day 6: We leave Fussen to Nuremberg. Nuremberg is a small city and entirely walkable. However, it has a cosmopolitan vibe. In addition, plenty of great restaurants to come home to after a day of sightseeing. En route to Nuremberg, stop in Augsburg, one of Germany’s oldest cities. There, you can check out the cathedral, the swanky town hall with its “golden hall,” and the 500-year-old ivy covered neighborhood of Fuggerei. Dinner and overnight in Nuremberg.
Day 7: Spend a leisurely day strolling in Nuremberg. Begin with a tour of the historic center. Then, visit Kaiserburg Castle, a former imperial castle dating from the 13th century. Then stroll down the drop dead gorgeous Weissgerbergasse Street, or Tanner’s Lane. Head to the lively Hauptmarkt Square where The Der Schoene Brunnen, a nice colourful fountain, finds the magic ring and makes a wish. Dinner and overnight in Nuremberg.
Day 8: Explore Rothenburg ob der Tauber. The town is the best-preserved medieval city in Germany and possibly all of Europe. It is a picture perfect charming fairy-tale town. Dinner and overnight in Nuremberg.
Day 9: Explore the beautiful UNESCO town of Bamberg. Bamberg is famous for its beer culture .Hike up to Michaelsberg Abbey for the panoramic views and stroll along Klein Venedig. It’s Bamberg’s Little Venice. It’s decorated with picturesque canal houses.
Day 10: Head to Munich to catch your plane home.
