      Road trip from Frankfurt to Prague

      Frankfurt May 20, 2013 at 9:31 AM

      This is the plan for the end of October this year. Is there any "must do" or "off the beaten path" things to do along the way? We will return to Frankfurt from Prague and we will have two weeks. Part of the reason we are in Frankfurt is to visit my boyfriend's family. Thank you, in advance, for you input!

      Munich May 3, 2013 at 8:54 AM

      We will be in Munich between Christmas and New Year's. Our rented apartment is near the corner of Prinzregentenstrasse and Ismaninger Strasse. Can anyone recommend places near there for food, particularly breakfasts and dinners? I'd like to go with a few close-by recommendations for any days we need something closer to "home." Also, is there a grocery/store market nearby where we might be able to pick up a few things to keep in the apartment for snacking or simple breakfasts? Thanks in advance! ~Erin

    • Oktoberfest 2013

      Munich May 8, 2013 at 5:41 PM

      I'm taking dad (retiree) and three other newbies to Munich for either Oktoberfest weekend. Ideally, I'd like affordable hotel accommodations, reservations at a fest tent, and a (very) patient guide to handle a senior citizen and the million questions my group will likely throw at him/her. Since time is limited with Oktoberfest around the corner, I'm thinking it might be best to sign up for an all-inclusive tour package, but which one? I've only been able to find what looks like "frat party" tours so far. Any help is appreciated.

      Munich May 6, 2013 at 7:52 PM

      Hello everyone!!

      I'm planning to go to the Oktoberfest this 2013, but I'm really really lost on this, hope you can give me a hand with all my very basic questions:

      When is the best time to go to avoid craziness, if possible :)
      What should I book in addition to hotel??
      What are the so famous "tends"?
      How much money should I expect to use? Mid range drinker
      I've heard it gets too expensive, would it be worth to go after the festival to avoid that?

      Thank you so much for any extra info you can provide!!!!

      Cheers!!!

      I see most places are already booked out as we need a 2 bed apt or similar .

      Hi there. I'm just looking for a bit of advice with regard to a day trip I want to make to Berchtesgaden in March. I will be travelling from Salzburg by bus and ideally I would like to go to Dokumentation Obersalzberg and then on for the rest of the day to Konigssee and then back to Salzburg that evening. First of all is this realistic to do this in one day? I have no problem in being in Berchtesgaden early in the morning. Am I correct to say there is a bus directly to Dokumentation Obersalzberg? Is there a bus from there onwards to Konigssee or would I need to return back to Berchtesgaden and get a bus from there? Likewise from Konigssee do I need to return to Berchtesgaden in order to get the bus back to Sallzburg? Thanks in advance for any replies:-)

    • Budget bike touring, hiking, lodging,

      by nayr2012 Online Now Jun 9, 2012 at 7:20 PM

      Hello, My soon-to-be wife and I are planning to spend part of our honeymoon in Berchtesgaden in the beginning of August of this year. How accessible are hiking trailheads from town? Does anyone have any recommendations on where to stay? Many of the places seem pretty similar online. We would love to camp a night or two in the National Park. Are there places to rent camping gear? Would this be a practical option or would it be more advantageous to just do day hikes? We also would really like to do some bike touring. Are there vendors in town with reliable road bikes? What would be an average price per day for that time of year? Do they offer any different pick-up/drop-off for longer destination cycling? Thanks for the help!

    • A Visit to "Eagle's Nest", Berchtesgaden

      by ramot418 Online Now Jun 18, 2010 at 8:20 AM

      I'm trying to get information on visiting the "Eagle's Nest", but the information available is somewhat spread out and confusing. From what I can piece together: - Parking for my car at Obersalzberg parking lot: 2.50 Euros - Bus to tunnel + elevator: 15 Euros per person - The bus leaves the parking lot about every half hour (last bus - 16:00). What I don't know is: (1) How much time to budget for this? (2) Is it possible to park my car at the parking lot and to walk up to the "Eagle's Nest (avoiding the 15 Euro fee)? (3) If yes, how long does it take to walk to the top from the parking lot? (4) Are there any other options? Thanks.

      by d0rsia Online Now Jul 14, 2009 at 6:41 AM

      Hi, Im planning on spending 10 days in Berchtesgaden next April. At the moment I was think of staying 2 nights in Berchtesgaden town itself to allow me to look around the town and surrounding area, aswell as walking to Obersalzburg one day. I was then planning on going onto a campsite which is apparently 10mins from Lake Konigssee and spending the next week there hiking trails and spending time at the lake. Does this sound like a sensible plan and are there any suggestions as to more activities or sights. (i.e. would you spend more time in the town maybe) Thanks

      We stayed at a great place in Loipl just outside Berchtesgaden a couple of years ago. Unforunately it's since stopped doing holiday rentals, but my family and my sister's family (5 adults, 3 children, 1 toddler) are looking for a similar Bavarian retreat. Ideally it would be more rural than urban, and in the Berchtesgadener-land. We're looking for a couple of weeks in August 2007, and have looked on the internet, and seen some places, but none that are ideal. Therefore, I'm hoping somehwere out there is someone who knows of a private rental (or one I simply haven't stumbled on yet), and can point me in their direction. Thanks in advance (and with fingers crossed) Phil
