Journeying with history, from the enchanting medieval to the rebellious post-modernist, Germany can satisfy any traveler’s wanderlust. Making up a checker-board of fantasy, natural beauty, classical cultures and quaint folksiness, the heart of Europe is now, more than ever, a popular destination for tourists from the world over.

There is plenty to pick from, a calendar bursting with fairs and festivities, exciting travel routes through the famed Fairylands of the Brothers Grimm or the open-house at the vineyards during harvest, treks and expeditions across scenic country and a feast of displays at museums and exhibitions, both indoor as well as open-air.

Traveling through Germany is easy, through its famed road and rail networks, by air or even along the waterways. Now, with nearly a fifth of the residents of foreign origin, language no longer remains a barrier and English is spoken or at least understood by most people.
