    • Flooding affecting Cologne + Cologne to Brussels and Back

      Cologne Jun 15, 2013 at 9:00 AM

      Hi, we (I, my wife and my 7 yr old son) will be in Berlin the last week of July. I intended to spend a few days in Cologne (travelling by train from Berlin) and then probably go to Brussels for a 2 day trip and then back to Berlin. Wanted to know:

      (i) Has the flooding affected the Berlin to Cologne rail route ?
      (ii) Do the trains (Berlin to Cologne, Cologne to Brussels) have enough luggage space in the trains ? Will travel with a couple of reasonably large suitcases.

      Thanks for your help in advance

    • Solo Travel around the Christmas Markets?

      Cologne Jun 10, 2013 at 1:54 AM

      I have never been to Europe before, but it's a dream of mine to visit a christmas market or two in Germany. The problem however, is that I'd had to travel this by myself ~ while I don't have any fear of doing this, I just wanted to see what people thought about safety etc. I'd be 20 by the time I travel, but wouldn't be looking to see the partying side of the city (my thoughts at this stage is Cologne/Aachen) - just experience a Northern Hemisphere Christmas. Any ideas/advice would be much appreciated. should I just be looking at tour groups who do these breaks?

    • Quickest Transportation to Wedau rowing course from town

      by nancymccloud Online Now Jan 3, 2012 at 10:06 AM

      My husband is racing in the Masters Regatta in September. All of the closest hotels to the site are fully booked so it looks like we'll be staying in Duisburg. I understand that the only bus to the race site from town is No. 923. Can you please suggest hotels that are nice (Not fancy) where this bus is close by? If you don't mind, also suggest good places to eat that the locals love. Thank you very much!

      Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord

      by schmechi Online Now Feb 5, 2011 at 3:01 AM

      I want to visit Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord in order to see some industrial heritage sites. Could you help me to estimate the time, I'll need? The official homepage (landschaftspark.de/en/home/i... - also available in German) offers a map, but unfortunately there is no distance data. So how much time I should allow for getting a quick impression (I believe a tour won't be necessary)? Additionally I am curious, wether there are some restaurants, cafés or at least food stalls in the area. Due to the other journey plans I I'll visit it during daylight, although I know about the illiuminations...

    • From Dortmund to Duisburg by water

      by smitbet Online Now Sep 24, 2009 at 4:14 PM

      From my not-so-good map, it looks like I can kayak from the end of the Dortmund-Ems Kanal to Duisburg. If this is so, then I would like to travel up the Rhein. Is the current from Duisburg to the Main swift? By swift, I mean would it be greater than 4knots? Is there a portion of the Rhein on that stretch that is requlated by schluses? Where would I find this information? Any feedback would certainly be appreciated.
