This cultural journey highlights the refined and enlightened contributions to global fine arts on a south-to-north excursion through Munich, Weimar, Dresden, and Berlin.
Bavaria in Germany's south marks the start of your Germany tour, discovering the classic facade of a city noted for embracing technological advancements while simultaneously honoring its cultural heritage. A journey through lavish architectural accomplishments kicks off the itinerary including Marienplatz, the National Theatre, and sprawling Nymphenburg Palace.

The storied city of Weimar is next on your Germany tour. A UNESCO-protected square is the centerpiece here, and the contrasts of Germany's past will be made clear at Buchenwald concentration camp, as well as in the homes of literary masters Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Friedrich Schiller.
