Description:

A gem of a town along the Romantic Road in a region possessing quintessentially German scenery and culture, Rothenburg overflows with charm. See the sights of its enchanting old town with a local guide. Stroll cobbled streets lined with half-timbered houses, delightful shops, and pretty cafés.

Towered walls surround the maze of charmingly preserved medieval streets of Rothenburg. A higgledy-piggledy collection of colorful old houses provides an alluring background to a leisurely day in this historical city.

A guided walking tour introduces you to some of the main sights, such as the mighty St James' Church with its precious wooden altar and tall stained glasses, or the intriguing Medieval Crime Museum with its well-researched exhibition on the dark secrets of past centuries.

You also have leisure time to explore the fairy-tale town at your own pace. Shop till you drop in authentic antiques and crafts boutiques offering first-rate goods, then sit back and take a break on the pleasant terrace of one of the many traditional cafés—the perfect spot for some serious people watching.
