FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Let Railbookers tailor make your German experience!

Start your journey in style at St Pancras International where you will take the Eurostar to Brussels before taking the 11:59 ICE train to the cosmopolitan city of Cologne.  Explore the medieval streets of Cologne’s Old Town with its landmark gothic Cathedral and enticing local breweries before spending the night at the comfortable 4* Mercure Severinshof Cologne Hotel.

The following afternoon head east to Berlin on the 12.49 ICE train and enjoy lunch in the comfortable surroundings of the restaurant car as the German countryside streams passed your window.

Spend two nights in this exciting capital, staying at the contemporary 4* Arcotel Velvet Berlin Hotel. Visit the impressive Reichstag building, discover the history of the Berlin wall at the museum in Checkpoint Charlie and indulge in a spot of shopping on the fabulous Ku'damm shopping street.

Railbookers can recommend some alternative views of Berlin - get hands on with the past at the fascinating DDR Museum where you can experience life in Berlin when the wall was still up. Take a ride in an original Trabi, see inside an authentic GDR apartment and have a look at the Stasi’s bugging equipment. Alternatively visit the Deutsche Guggenheim museum on Unter den Linden with its current Freeway Balconies exhibition by Collier Schorr, whose photos feature celebrities such as Brooke Shields and Leonardo Di Caprio. Make the most of your time in Berlin by taking the night train home via Brussels.

This trip costs from £445 per person based on two people sharing and including breakfast and return train travel. Upgrades to first class available. If you want to explore even more of Germany Railbookers can tailor-make your trip to take in other cities including Hamburg, Munich, Dresden, Leipzig and Baden-Baden.
