Waterfront Tour by Boat Best of IgoUgo

Attraction

Quote:
The waterfront is right on the Elbe River, which runs through Germany, the Czech Republic, and other eastern European countries. It is an easy way to see the city skyline and nicely framed at dusk or just before.

St. Bartholomew Cathedral Best of IgoUgo

Attraction

Quote:
The cathedrals in Frankfurt are many, and like the others, this one has been rebuilt several times due to wars, bombings, fires, and general upkeep. Amazing history, glimpse of the city as it grew during the earlier part of the 1900s, although the cathedral, like others, has been there for at least four centuries.

Train Ride to the Baltic Sea Best of IgoUgo

Story/Tip

Quote:
I took a day trip to the Baltic region and then walked the waterfront, where there were numerous art colonies, private homes, and public walkways. Pubs, taverns, and shops everywhere with very nice shopping. The Baltic Sea is quaint, European, and affordable.

Story/Tip

The hillside communities along the Elbe are very rich and luxurious. Germany is friendly, the people are quaint and village oriented. No need for restaurants - you can survive in the pastry shops. Photography is outstanding.
