What people love about Fully Guided Tours in Germany
- Oktoberfest (4 Days)
Great Oktoberfest with Contiki Matt, looked after us and made the trip
- Best of Germany
It is still difficult to pinpont the best part of the tour as it was extensive and very well put together. Kurt was a great guide and the travel pace was well structured with plenty of time to tour with the group and individually.

What our customers ask about Germany Guided Tours & Trips
How does the seasonal timing affect guided tours in Germany?
Each season in Germany brings distinct travel experiences. Summer (June-August) brings warm weather perfect for exploring the Rhine Valley and Berlin's outdoor spaces. Winter (November-December) transforms cities like Nuremberg and Dresden into festive Christmas Market destinations. Spring shows off Heidelberg Palace among blooming gardens while fall paints Bavaria's castles in golden colors. A TourRadar traveler commented: "The timing was perfect for Christmas Markets though some markets weren't open until late November so checking specific dates is important."
What kind of meals are included on fully guided tours in Germany?
Daily hotel breakfasts and select group dinners come standard on most tours. Guests at properties like Hotel Park Plaza Trier start their day with extensive breakfast spreads. Evening meals often showcase local cuisine such as authentic gasthof dinners in Munich or traditional Christstollen tastings in Dresden. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The food was wonderful especially during group dinners where we could try authentic German cuisine. Breakfast buffets at hotels were also impressive with both local and international options."
What are the benefits of choosing a fully guided tour in Germany?
Expert local guides lead visitors through Germany's key landmarks while sharing cultural context and historical background. Tours take care of logistics and provide special access to sites like Dresden's Frauenkirche and Zwinger Palace. Quality hotels such as the Maritim Hotel Nürnberg put guests close to major attractions. A TourRadar traveler noted "Our guide Bradley was absolutely wonderful and made the experience incredibly enriching especially during our visits to historical sites in Berlin and Munich."
What's included in accommodation on fully guided Germany tours?
Tours feature centrally located 4-5 star hotels like Munich's Le Meridien or NH Collection Dresden Altmarkt. Rooms come with private bathrooms WiFi and modern amenities plus daily buffet breakfasts. According to a TourRadar traveler: "The hotels were great especially the Park Plaza in Berlin and NH Collection in Dresden - perfect locations for exploring the cities with excellent breakfast spreads."
How much free time is typically available on guided tours in Germany?
Tours balance guided activities with independent exploration. Most schedules include 2-3 hours of free time in major cities after morning guided visits. This allows guests to explore areas like Munich's Marienplatz or find local restaurants. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The pacing was perfect - we had guided tours of highlights like the Brandenburg Gate in the mornings then free afternoons to explore charming neighborhoods like Munich's Marienplatz or try local restaurants."
What's the typical group size for fully guided tours in Germany?
Group sizes range from intimate 8-15 person tours to larger groups of 40 travelers. Boutique operators like Terranova limit Bavaria bike tours to 15 people while companies like Globus typically host 30-40 guests. A TourRadar traveler noted about their Globus German Vista tour: "I liked that we had a small group as it provided space to spread out on the motor coach and a better opportunity to get to know others on the tour."
How much walking is involved on guided tours in Germany?
Daily walking averages 2-3 miles on varied terrain from medieval cobblestone streets to castle grounds near Neuschwanstein. City tours include 2-3 hour walks with built-in breaks. A TourRadar traveler shared: "The walking was manageable for our group ranging from 30s to 70s - our guide adjusted the pace when needed and there were always options to take taxis if desired."
