This trip of a lifetime begins in Berlin, the capital of Germany and the location of some of the most important events of the Twentieth Century. Cross between East Berlin and West Berlin and see what remains of the Berlin Wall at the East Side Gallery. From Berlin, we board a modern, comfortable train and head south to Munich, often referred to as the cultural heart of Germany. Bike through this city like a local and pay your respects at one of the most important World War II sites, Dachau Concentration Camp. Next, hop over the border and cross another country off your bucket list as we explore beautiful Zell Am See.
