When you’re planning your trip to Germany, you’re likely to find it gets complicated fast by all the fabulous places there are to visit across the country. How much can you fit into your trip? And where are all these places located? Can you move easily between them?
It’s time to take a step back and think about the different regions in Germany.
Learning about the different regions and where they are located in relation to each other will help you plan your trip. Generally, it’s best to pick a couple of different regions and stick to them, but if you are traveling for more than a couple of weeks, you can add more in.
