Germany can be a city break, a castle road trip or a proper Alpine escape.
Choose one brilliant base or join several regions together. Berlin delivers history and nightlife, the Rhine brings storybook towns and vineyards, while Bavaria, the Black Forest and the Baltic coast reward a slower journey.
Two German escapes worth building a trip around.
Start with the kind of holiday you fancy, then choose dates, accommodation and extras. A destination-wide search keeps the idea alive even when one particular hotel is full.
Berlin
Spend two or three nights between Museum Island, Kreuzberg, the Brandenburg Gate and neighbourhood markets. Add a river cruise, street-food tour or Potsdam day trip when you have another day.
Germany by road
Follow the Rhine through vineyard towns, sweep south towards the Black Forest, or collect a car in Munich and join lakes, Alpine villages and Neuschwanstein into one memorable route.
Four easy ways to make Germany yours.
Germany changes completely from region to region and season to season. Pick one shape that suits your time and budget, or use it as the beginning of a much longer European journey.
A Berlin mini break
Join landmark history, creative neighbourhoods, galleries, markets and memorable evenings without needing a car.
See price examples →A castle and vineyard road trip
Link Cologne, Koblenz, Cochem, the Rhine Gorge and Heidelberg through riverside scenery and old towns.
See the route idea →A Bavarian mountain escape
Use Munich as the gateway to bright lakes, palace gardens, Alpine villages and spectacular mountain roads.
Build the trip →A Christmas market journey
Choose Cologne, Nuremberg, Dresden or Munich, then combine festive squares with an easy rail connection.
Compare your options →Could a seven-night Germany break really start from around £329pp?
Yes. Germany holiday searches were showing seven-night options from around this level when checked. Treat these as useful inspiration rather than a fixed promise, then compare your own dates and departure airport for the live total.
Berlin
A seven-night Germany comparison starting point, leaving plenty of time for neighbourhoods, museums, markets and a Potsdam day trip.
Compare Berlin holiday options →Hamburg
A seven-night comparison starting point for waterfront architecture, music, food halls and an easy change of scene from the usual city break.
Compare Hamburg holiday options →Munich
A seven-night comparison starting point that can combine Munich’s old town and food scene with lakes, castles and Bavarian mountain days.
Compare Munich holiday options →London to Brussels was showing from £39 one way, with Brussels to Cologne from £16.50
These were separate lowest-fare examples for selected trains, not a guaranteed combined London-to-Cologne fare. Check the full through journey, connection time and ticket conditions live, then add a Cologne stay or continue along the Rhine.
Examples independently checked 17 July 2026 and generally based on two adults sharing, with seven nights where stated. Days Out Now is not affiliated with the original holiday comparison or rail providers used to verify these examples. The buttons use Days Out Now’s existing travel partners. Prices, dates, departure points, luggage, transfers, local taxes and availability can change, so always confirm the live total and exactly what is included before booking.
Book the whole holiday, or build it your way.
Choose a flight-and-hotel option for simplicity, or compare each part separately when rail travel, a Christmas market hop or a multi-region road trip gives you a better holiday.
Compare complete holidays
Search flight-and-hotel options together, then check luggage, transfers, local taxes and financial protection before booking.
Build a flexible trip
Compare flights and accommodation separately, or arrange rail travel directly. Add a car when castles, mountain roads, forests or smaller towns are part of the plan.
Add memorable experiences
Turn a good-value base into a brilliant holiday with museum tickets, food tours, river cruises, castle visits, guided walks and day trips.
Compare places to stay across Germany.
Use the live map to move between cities and regions rather than relying on one property. If a hotel is full, widen the search to nearby neighbourhoods, towns or the next stop on your route.
