  1. Day 1

    Frankfurt am Main, Germany

    Frankfurt am Main pairs a striking skyline with the River Main and a compact historic centre. Begin at Römerberg, where half-timbered façades frame the city’s medieval square. Then cross the river to the Städel Museum, one of Germany’s leading art museums. The city rewards a longer stay. Explore the Museumsufer and sample Apfelwein in Sachsenhausen. Here, Europe’s financial capital balances modern ambition with old-world character.

  2. Day 2

    Wertheim am Main, Germany

    Wertheim stands where the Tauber meets the Main, on Baden-Württemberg’s northern edge. The compact old town rewards a slow walk among timber-framed houses and narrow lanes. Its market square recalls centuries of trade. Above it, the ruins of Wertheim Castle command broad river views. The Glass Museum traces the craft that carried Wertheim’s name beyond the valley.

  3. Day 3

    Wurzburg, Germany

    Step ashore in Würzburg, where Franconian wine, Baroque splendour and the Main River shape a memorable day. The Würzburg Residence, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, rewards a visit for its grand staircase and Tiepolo frescoes. Cross the Old Main Bridge for views of Marienberg Fortress and vineyards climbing the surrounding slopes. Then explore the compact old town, where cafés and wine taverns offer a pause between landmarks.

  4. Day 4

    Miltenberg, Germany

    Miltenberg sits between the Main River and wooded hills, with a compact old town made for exploring on foot. Half-timbered houses line market lanes leading to Schnatterloch, the handsome square beneath Mildenburg Castle. Climb to the castle for views across the rooftops and river valley, then linger over Franconian food or wine. This small town offers a vivid pause between larger German cities.

  5. Days 5–6

    Frankfurt am Main, Germany

    Frankfurt am Main pairs a striking skyline with the River Main and a compact historic centre. Begin at Römerberg, where half-timbered façades frame the city’s medieval square. Then cross the river to the Städel Museum, one of Germany’s leading art museums. The city rewards a longer stay. Explore the Museumsufer and sample Apfelwein in Sachsenhausen. Here, Europe’s financial capital balances modern ambition with old-world character.
