Two days for Berlin isn't even worth going.

like me reiterate - you can do Berlin well by getting in a 6 am (on a night train) and leaving at 11 pm (on a night train) if you know what you are doing.

two days is more than enough.

if the choice in not going, on spending two days, I'd do two days.

Neuschwanstein is one of the places I think we will definately hit, and Munich. I did hear that Frankfurt is fun, but due to the fact that it's a business center, we wouldn't be missing much if we skipped it altogether. No Baden Baden then, and I'm sure I'll run into some frederichsbads while there. Even the Germans tell me to go to Freiburg, so that will be taken into consideration. Thanks for all the pointers guys. They're all really helpful. We're not going to be sticking to a strict schedule, but it's always great to find out as much as possible from people who've been there before we actually go!

Zum Uerige in the Altstadt is a reason to go there. The other reason would be to track down Ralf and/or Florian.

neuschwanstein, ok, don´t miss it, but expect lineups.

munich is full of history and full of charme. taste the typical bavarian beer, light in colour, with a slight taste of hops. from (allegedly) the oldest brewery in the world, this is a clear bavarian wheat beer. it is pale in colour with a high-rise, creamy head that tastes of vanilla. nose is light and spicy, with characteristic vanilla ice-cream and bubblegum notes. it is lively and spritzy on the tongue, yet very smooth and creamy despite the fizz. one of my favorites. (i don't recommand you to visit the hofbräuhaus, better go to the löwenbräukeller)




speaking of history: munich, the capital of nazi movement. this map will take you to the sites of nazi history. and you really have to visit dachau.

Berlin is said to be an awsome city with great nightlife. Haven't been there myself but have heard lots of good stuff about the place!
