Day 2 - Sunday - Dec 24, 2023
Nuremberg, Germany
Nuremberg, Germany    
For a holiday extravaganza, look no further than Nuremberg, which boasts the largest and grandest Christmas market in all of Germany-and that's really saying something. The "Gingerbread Capital of the World" pulls out all the stops during the holidays, as you'll see for yourself on a panoramic tour guaranteed to put you in a festive mood. You could not ask for a more perfect place to begin an exploration of Christmas traditions than Nuremberg. Stroll through the castle gardens and enjoy breathtaking views of the city, then walk through a maze of cobblestone lanes down to the central Market Square. There, spread out before the Church of Our Lady, is the largest Christmas market in Germany.
Day 3 - Monday - Dec 25, 2023
Bamberg, Germany
Bamberg, Germany    
The fact that Bamberg still exists today is something of a miracle-it survived WWII bombing virtually unscathed. It's a superb example of a medieval German city, one compact enough to explore on foot with a local expert. You'll also have free time to visit not just one but four Christmas markets and a captivating amount of nativity scenes located along nativity trail.
Day 4 - Tuesday - Dec 26, 2023

Kitzingen, Germany    
Wurzburg, Germany    
Rothenburg looks like something straight out of the pages of a storybook, with its medieval walls, cobbled streets, Gothic churches, and Hansel-and-Gretel houses. Join a local expert for an insightful walking tour, and then wander amongst the stalls at one of Germany's oldest Christmas markets.
Day 5 - Wednesday - Dec 27, 2023
Wurzburg, Germany
Wurzburg, Germany    
This morning, you'll head off to see the Wurzburg Residence, a Baroque-style palace famous for its gigantic ceiling fresco. Later, visit the town's renowned Christmas market, held in front of the old City Hall, for some one-of-a-kind gifts for friends back home. Beautifully decorated wooden booths are illuminated by the soft glow of Christmas lighting, and the air is filled with the scent of roasted chestnuts and the sound of Christmas carols. One of the best ways to embrace a different culture is through encounters with local residents, which you'll experience this afternoon in a typical Franconian village. Make new friends over hot drinks and homemade seasonal treats.
Day 6 - Thursday - Dec 28, 2023
Wertheim, Germany
Wertheim, Germany    
Located at the confluence of the Tauber and Main rivers, Wertheim is a lovely village dating back over a thousand years. It epitomizes the friendly, slow-paced small-town atmosphere of many German villages; here, residents greet each other by name as they do their daily shopping for fresh bread and sausage in tiny shops. On your guided walking tour of the village, you'll hear a lot about daily life in Wertheim, as well as facts about the town and its history. Its many well-preserved medieval buildings-complete with low doors and tiny windows-attest to the inconveniences of life in the Middle Ages.
Day 7 - Friday - Dec 29, 2023
Frankfurt, Germany
Frankfurt, Germany    
Frankfurt is known as the "Mainhattan" of Europe, a financial powerhouse with soaring skyscrapers as well as traditional Old Town architecture.
