Itinerary: 8 Days Germany Romantic Road
The itinerary for touring the Romantic Road in Germany. It is termed as the romantic road with the main purpose of promoting this German region to the world and have hence becomes very popular with castles, 31 scenic spots along this route. With a distance of 424km long, 20 over townships and the major town being close to Munich, the romantic road should not be missed when touring Germany.
I had flew with Turkish Airlines from the far east region (Singapore) to Frankfurt. Do you know Turkish Airlines connect up to 14 cities in Germany alone? They have a great connection time of around 2 hours, making it an ideal transit connection point with very reasonable airfares.
