Berlin, Germany

About this activity

A seven-day journey across three of Central Europe's most historically significant capitals, combining Berlin's modern and Cold War legacy with Munich's Bavarian charm and Vienna's imperial grandeur. This tour traces centuries of European history, from Prussian power to Habsburg splendour, with iconic landmarks and cultural immersion in each city.

See some of the best of Europe's old capitals. Explore Berlin's Reichstag, see highlights of Munich and visit Neuschwanstein Castle, discover Schönbrunn Palace and enjoy Vienna City Tour.

Highlights

  • Reichstag in Berlin – Germany's parliamentary symbol with panoramic city views
  • Neuschwanstein Castle – Ludwig II's fairy-tale palace nestled in the Bavarian Alps
  • Munich highlights – beer halls, English Garden, and Marienplatz's gothic cathedral
  • Schönbrunn Palace – Vienna's vast imperial summer residence with formal gardens
  • Vienna City Tour – guided exploration of St. Stephen's Cathedral and historic centre

Insider tips

  • Book Reichstag tickets in advance (free, but time-slots fill quickly); go at sunset for the best light over Berlin
  • In Munich, visit the English Garden early morning to avoid crowds and catch locals with their beer steins
  • Schönbrunn's gardens are free to explore; pay only for palace interiors if you want the full Habsburg experience
  • Vienna's public transport is efficient – get a 72-hour City Card to cover U-Bahn, trams and included museum entry

Good to know

  • 7-day itinerary spans three countries with train connections between cities (typically 1.5–2 hours each leg)
  • Bring comfortable walking shoes – each city requires substantial on-foot exploration of historic districts
  • Accommodation and most meals not explicitly included; confirm what's covered before booking
  • Best suited for independent travellers with a mix of guided stops and free time in each city
