Best of Germany

The itinerary covers alot of medieval history and also more recent history (WW2), which we found very interesting. The scenery is just beautiful, especially the Bavarian part.

We traveled to beautiful cities and had a well-rounded experience in the country of Germany. Loved every day.

The itinerary was ok but in the cities and villages it would be nice to go and explore more ie:shops , markets, inside of buildings like the opera houses. It was a lot of walk and talk with vox box and more walk and talk. I was not expecting to walk between 15,000 and 18,000 steps daily. People got tired of all the walk and talk and stopped listening.

I wish we had two days in Dresden. Otherwise, we loved the hotels and cities we stayed in. I felt rushed to choose optional tours on the bus the first day, and didn't like feeling pressured to select them all. Unfortunately, we didn't choose the Linderhof Palace option, unaware that it was on our tour route, and there wouldn't be anything else to do at that site, so we spent the morning in the gift shop. I genuinely believe this stop should be added to the trip itinerary. Carl was a fantastic tour guide, although he got into world economics more than I'd like on vacation. I researched several German tours, enjoyed the diversity this one offered, and was not disappointed.

I enjoyed this tour so much, and I loved our tour guide! The only recommendation that I would make is to add a town in the Alsace like Colmar, etc., between Heidelberg and Füssen to break up that long drive.
