Full description

Embark on a day trip from Frankfurt along the Romantic Road, Germany's oldest and most loved holiday route. Travel through Würzburg into the Tauber Valley to Rothenburg ob der Tauber, the epitome of German romanticism.

Depart Frankfurt in the morning, start the drive through the Spessart to Würzburg. Passing the university town, the Tauber Valley will be reached. Bad Mergentheim and Markelsheim are located where three major wine-growing regions come together.

Drive to the Würzburg Residence, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the official starting point of the Romantic Road. Crossing the River Main, enjoy views of the Marienberg Fortress and the Käppele, the Chapel of Grace.

Visit the city of Weikersheim next, where the Renaissance castle and the Baroque garden can be visited. See the historic market square, then pass Röttingen, Germany’s first European town, and Creglingen. Rothenburg ob der Tauber will be reached at lunch time.

Rothenburg ob der Tauber is a must when traveling in Europe. Famous sights are the medieval town wall, the historical marketplace, the town hall, the Gothic Parish Church of St. Jakob, and the Plönlein, an area featuring a colorful timber-frame house.

The tour ends round-trip back in Frankfurt.

Keiko was a fantastic guide who gave us so much background from Frankfurt all the way to Rothenburg. Our only challenge was the argumentative driver Igor who was very upset with traffic and seemed to speak to our guide with no bit of kindness or teamwork. The locations Keiko brought us to were amazing and it was clear that she had a great deal of experience. Definitely recommend!

It was an excellent trip. We wish we had more time in Rothenburg for shopping and strolling - four hours and it was not enough 😁 one of the most beautiful places in Germany. Weikersheim was also a gem. The trip is very well organized and not tiring at all. Keiko, our guide, was very nice- explaining everything and helping with the Programme and her suggestions. It is an experience that worths it! It opened our appetite for more Romantic Road Towns!
