you walk through the pedestrian area of the charming Old Town and<br />
see St. Sebald Church, painstakingly reconstructed as a monument<br />
to peace from the rubble of near-total wartime destruction. Also<br />
admire the Schöner Brunnen, a 14th-century fountain dedicated to<br />
the Holy Roman Empire. It is said that it brings good luck to spin the<br />
two brass rings. (B,L)<br />
DAY 4 NUREMBERG. EXCURSION TO BAYREUTH & BAMBERG. (Tue.)<br />
Look forward to an exciting day. First, stop in Bayreuth for an orientation<br />
of this city of festival fame. Richard Wagner came to Bayreuth in<br />
1871 and was not satisfied with the existing 18th-century theater, the<br />
Markgräfliches Opernhaus, so he had a new one built. Today, the Festival<br />
Hall is used exclusively for the Bayreuth Festival, and only works by<br />
Wagner are performed there. Continue to picturesque Bamberg, the<br />
city with the largest historical center in Germany and a UNESCO World<br />
Heritage Site. Taste “smoked beer,” a type of beer with a distinctive<br />
smoke flavor imparted by using malted barley dried over an open flame.<br />
Later enjoy a guided walk along the cobblestone streets, and admire the<br />
architecture of the houses. Return to Nuremberg. (B)<br />
DAY 5 NUREMBERG–ROTHENBURG–STUTTGART–BLACK FOREST. (Wed.)<br />
A short drive delivers you to medieval Rothenburg with its ramparts and<br />
towers, cobblestone lanes, and 16th-century houses. Hear how the town<br />
survived the Thirty Years’ War, and shop for Christmas ornaments. On to<br />
Stuttgart for an exciting visit to the MERCEDES-BENZ MUSEUM. Then,<br />
enter the Black Forest for your overnight stay. (B,D)<br />
DAY 6 BLACK FOREST–LAKE CONSTANCE–OBERAMMERGAU AREA. (Thu.)<br />
A scenic drive this morning to sparkling Lake Constance. Next, stop<br />
in the Passion Play village of Oberammergau before continuing to your<br />
hotel. Choose from our exciting optional excursions. (B)<br />
DAY 7 OBERAMMERGAU AREA. EXCURSION TO NEUSCHWANSTEIN. (Fri.)<br />
The highlight today is a visit to King Ludwig’s magnificent<br />
NEUSCHWANSTEIN CASTLE, one of Germany’s most famous castles<br />
and inspiration for Walt Disney’s Sleeping Beauty Castle at his theme<br />
park. Follow your Local Guide through this fairytale castle on its craggy<br />
outcrop high above a sparkling lake. Also visit the MUSEUM OF THE<br />
BAVARIAN KINGS and enjoy a HORSE-DRAWN CARRIAGE RIDE. (B,D)<br />
DAY 8 OBERAMMERGAU AREA–MUNICH. (Sat.)<br />
A leisurely morning with the possibility to join an optional excursion<br />
to visit King Ludwig’s Linderhof Castle. This afternoon, you can return<br />
to Marienplatz and explore its many enticing shops. Tonight, a special<br />
farewell dinner awaits you at one of Munich’s lively restaurants to say<br />
auf Wiedersehen! (B,D)<br />
DAY 9 MUNICH. (Sun.)<br />
