10 Days in Bavaria Cycling, incl. Bamberg and Frankfurt
A grand German circuit connects 9 historic cities over 10 days, spanning 398 km from Bamberg to Frankfurt. Remarkable UNESCO sites, Baroque palaces, and medieval towns await, with stays at premium hotels like Romantik Hotel Messerschmitt. Total costs around $1,200.
- Day 1
Bamberg
Start in UNESCO-listed Bamberg, spread across seven hills. The medieval old town is incredibly well preserved. Be sure to see the Old Town Hall sitting on its own island in the Regnitz River. Bring light layers, as Bamberg's cobblestone streets can be cool in the morning, even during summer.
- Day 2
Bamberg to Hassfurt (42km)
Cycle the well-maintained Main Cycle Path. The flat route works well for beginners. Stop at the Maria Limbach pilgrim church, a beautiful baroque building by Balthasar Neumann. The ride takes 4-5 hours with photo stops. Stay overnight in quiet Hassfurt.
- Day 3
Hassfurt to Volkach (55km)
The riverside path takes you past private castles to the wine village of Volkach. Look for signs along the well-marked route. Pack a basic repair kit since bike shops are limited in this rural area. Visit the baroque Schelfenhaus palace and try some local Silvaner wine in the evening.
- Day 4
Volkach to Würzburg (65km)
A longer ride through Franconia's best wine country. Take a lunch break in Sommerach or Dettelbach. In Würzburg, make time for the UNESCO-listed Residence Palace. A recent cyclist shared: "The view of Marienberg Fortress from the Old Main Bridge at sunset is stunning - arrive by 6 PM if possible to catch the golden hour."
- Day 5
Würzburg to Lohr am Main (60km)
Visit the Veitshöchheim Rococo Garden before cycling to medieval Karlstadt for coffee. The path stays mostly flat but gets crowded in summer. Start early to beat the heat. Your day ends in Lohr am Main, said to be the inspiration for Snow White.
- Days 6-7
Lohr to Wertheim (44km) and on to Miltenberg (36km)
Two easier days let you explore tiny Rothenfels and Wertheim Castle. The medieval Market Square in Miltenberg offers great photos. Pick hotels in the old town centers.
- Day 8
Miltenberg to Aschaffenburg (40km)
Ride through Klingenberg's red wine region. The path follows the river closely, perfect for cooling off on warm days. Check out the unusual Pompejanum in Aschaffenburg, a recreated Roman villa.
- Day 9
Aschaffenburg to Frankfurt (56km)
Take the small ferry across the Main at Seligenstadt, then continue through Hanau, where the Brothers Grimm were born. Watch for commuter bikes near Frankfurt. Finish at the Museumsufer district and celebrate with apple wine in Sachsenhausen.
- Day 10
Frankfurt
Explore Frankfurt's mix of modern and historic sights. The city's bike paths make it simple to return your rental bike anywhere central.
10 Day Germany Itinerary, incl. Berlin and Munich
A 10-day German tour takes you through 4 major cities. Marvel at Berlin's Brandenburg Gate, Dresden's baroque quarter, medieval Rothenburg, and Munich's Marienplatz. The journey includes a tour of Neuschwanstein Castle and a boat ride on Königssee.

- Days 5-6
Nuremberg
The train to Nuremberg takes 4 hours from Dresden. Stay near the Altstadt for easy access to main sights. Take a day trip to Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Trains run every hour and take 1.5 hours each way. Visit between 8-10 AM before tour groups arrive to see this medieval town at its best.
- Days 7-9
Munich
It's a 2-hour train ride from Nuremberg to Munich. Walk around the historic center and Marienplatz. For Neuschwanstein Castle, book the 9 AM tour and arrive 30 minutes early for tickets.

- Germany´s Best (13 destinations)
Well conceived tour but a number of provisos. No good using hotels that do not provide restaurants especially if there are no restaurant within short walking distance after late arrival. Our accomplished guide Pedro had to spend so long on logistical matters that we got little info on Germany s health and welfare system on its education system etc..supplementary guide needed perhaps.
