This is a week long itinerary for seeing some of the most iconic Christmas Markets in Germany, in the cities of Munich, Nuremberg and Berlin My client flew into Munich and returned from Berlin. Convenient train routes connect Munich with Nuremberg and Nuremberg with Berlin. To get to know the cities she was staying in I suggested to my client to take a city tour with a professional guide who know the best places to visit while giving the history and stories connected to them.
