Germany is truly a treasure of history, beauty and intrigue. The "Romantic Road" (as coined in the 1950's) combines the historic beauty of towns like Wurzburg, Bamburg, and Augsburg with medieval, walled towns like Rothenburg ob der Tuaber, Dinkelsbuhl and Nordlingen. The southern end of this "road" includes the amazing Neuschwanstein Castle, nestled along the base of the Alps. This is an unforgettable experience and one that any traveler will be certain to enjoy!
