You are cordially invited to join us on a scenic 90-minute coach journey to an even more scenic destination, one of Germany’s most romantic castles. Castle Schwerin sits on its own island in the lake of its namesake town, the capital of Mecklenburg. You’ll first see it from a relaxing lake cruise, then by guided tour as you enter this truly spectacular royal residence, topped with more decorative towers and turrets than even the most audacious French chateau. Touring this museum-like former home of the Dukes of Mecklenburg, you’ll gain many insights into the life of Pomeranian royalty – and it wasn’t modest. Intricate wood carvings, fine silk wallpapers and masterfully painted ancestral portraits are everywhere. While the structure dates back only to the mid-1800s, Schloss Schwerin evokes a time that is far older – and has a fantasy style that’s pure Baroque-era splendor. Once your castle tour is completed, take some free time in Schwerin city center before the return to Warnemunde pier. Perhaps you’ll browse for mementos of your visit or simply find an inviting place to sit back and relax while nibbling on a local specialty – accompanied by beer, of course. This is Germany, after all.

Travel by coach to Rostock for a panoramic drive, a guided walk through town, a microbrewery visit and a relaxing river cruise back to Warnemunde. Your rolling journey through Rostock brings you past top sights including University Square, where students have gathered for centuries. But soon, you’ll leave the coach behind and stroll into the heart of this ancient Hanseatic city. A refreshing walk through the gardens of Holy Cross Convent leads to sprawling New Market square and its impressively pink, baroque town hall and the St. Mary`s Church – the icon of Rostock. Enjoy some free time before you stop at a local microbrewery . Enjoy a beer-tasting and German pretzel before making for the local dock, where a river boat will be waiting to convey you back to Warnemunde via the scenic, watery route.

Enjoy an exceptionally scenic drive to Berlin, where you’ll be introduced to top landmarks as you survey the city by coach. Many symbols in this reunited capital still pack a powerful punch, like the monumental Brandenburg Gate, walled off with barbed wire from 1961 until the divided city was reunified in 1990. Another must-see is the Unter den Linden; a fashionable, tree-lined avenue of aristocratic old Berlin that stretches from Brandenburg Gate to Alexanderplatz in what was once the heart of socialist East Germany. At the East Side Gallery, you’ll contemplate a section of the actual Berlin Wall embellished with messages painted by artists, both famous and obscure. Encounter other sights that serve as poignant reminders of Berlin’s earlier divided-city years as you visit Checkpoint Charlie – the infamous Cold War crossing point featured in so many spy stories – and feel the postwar era come alive at the Allied Museum and Tempelhof Airlift Memorial in the old American Sector. Midday brings free time for lunch on your own before traveling to more attractions like the Reichstag and new Memorial for the Victims of War and Dictatorship. Some more free time for shopping precedes the coach return to Warnemunde.

Settle in for a scenic drive across the German countryside to tour Berlin by coach and river cruise, with free time to add your own discoveries to the agenda. Many of the symbols in this reunited capital city still pack a powerful punch, like the monumental Brandenburg Gate, walled off with barbed wire from 1961 until East and West were reunited in 1990. Another classic Berlin icon is the Unter den Linden, the fashionable avenue of aristocratic old Berlin. Lined with stately linden trees, it stretches from the Brandenburg Gate to Alexanderplatz, once the heart of socialist East Germany. A stop at the East Side Gallery invites you to contemplate the messages embellishing a section of the actual Berlin Wall on which artists were invited to express themselves in paint. Midday brings free time to seek lunch on your own before regrouping for a cruise along the River Spree, where you’ll pass must-see landmarks like the Reichstag and Charlottenburg Palace, large enough to hold several other palaces within its baroque walls. Additional free-range time for exploring Berlin at your leisure follows before the coach return to Warnemunde pier.

Delve into the histories of Potsdam and nearby Berlin by visiting landmarks that help define these remarkable cities. Potsdam is renowned for its imperial past, as you will discover while passing through the Dutch and Russian quarters that were constructed following the orders of various Prussian kings. To enhance your understanding of Prussian royal history, you will pause for photos of the Palace of Sanssouci – King Frederick the Great’s summer residence – and Cecilienhof, the last palace constructed before Prussia was dissolved. More must-see attractions await you in Berlin, such as the somber Holocaust Memorial and the Reichstag, the domed Neo-Renaissance building where the lower house of Germany’s legislature meets. You will also enjoy up-close views of a remnant of the Berlin Wall, the former border crossing Checkpoint Charlie and the Brandenburg Gate, the iconic symbol of a once-divided Germany. A look at the 17th-century Charlottenburg Palace reveals more about the Prussian royals’ passion for architecture.

Take a drive into Germany’s pastoral Mecklenburg district and ride the narrow-gauge rails to a classic seaside resort once favored by Dukes, Kaisers and Tsars. This road and rail voyage brings you through some of the country’s most sparsely populated terrain, a delightful marshland dotted with traditional villages and what seem to be thousands of pristine lakes. In the town of Bad Doberan, tucked between ancient beech forests and the Baltic Sea, you’ll encounter several medieval treasures including a 700-year-old Cistercian abbey considered one of the Baltic region’s finest Brick Gothic buildings. Stepping off the coach at the Molli train station, you’ll climb aboard a historic narrow-gauge steam train for a true ride back in time. Your destination is the seaside Kuhlungsborn, where you can admire grand buildings and even grandor stories. From the train station, you will transferred by bus to the city center. Upon your arrival, your guide will take you out onto one of the sea bridges. Afterwards, stroll through the town center on your own or treat yourself to a short walk along the beach promenade.

Discover the many Middle Age charms of Rostock on a delightful guided walk that visits key town landmarks, then takes you to a church tower high above them all. The coach transfer from Warnemunde provides views of the suburbs of this Hanseatic harbor city before arriving in Rostock city center, where you’ll embark on your leisurely stroll. Among the diverse highlights encountered will be the venerable University of Rostock, the gardens of Holy Cross Convent, the vibrant shopping mile known as Kropelin Street, the old library and the evocatively playful Fountain of Joy. At picturesque New Market Square, you’ll have a chance to admire Rostock’s very pink Town Hall and St. Mary’s Church, a true Gothic stunner. Free time in town allows for making more discoveries on your own before reboarding the coach for a short hop to St. Peter’s, oldest of the town’s three principal churches. Its rebuilt 360-foot tower is equipped with a modern elevator for a smooth ride up to an observation level that offers amazing bird’s-eye views over all of Rostock. A champagne reception awaits you here and your excursion concludes with an interesting studio demonstration of antiquated blueprinting.

Travel through the hills of northern Germany to Berlin on an expedition focused on iconic landmarks with ties to Jewish history, including the exceptional Jewish Museum Berlin with a photo stop at the Holocaust Memorial . A panoramic three-hour drive through pastoral heath and moorland provides the ideal relaxed prelude before the emotional impact of touring a museum that chronicles 2,000 years of German-Jewish life. Even the Jewish Museum’s building packs a punch; clad in zinc metal and vaulting skyward, it elicits inspiration and hope – a response fully intended by its superstar architect, Daniel Libeskind. Following your museum visit, which includes free time for lunch at the in-house café, you’ll reboard the coach to survey sights significant to every Berliner, Jewish or otherwise. See tree-lined Unter den Linden, the promenade of aristocratic old Berlin. Gaze at the über-historic Brandenburg Gate and marvel at the Reichstag, rebuilt under the direction of superstar architect Norman Foster and once again home to Germany’s parliament. An especially haunting highlight of the afternoon will be your visit to the Topography of Terror, an open-air photography exhibit located on the former site of the Nazi’s Gestapo and SS headquarters. It’s impossible to stand at this spot without hearing powerful echoes of the past. Before saying goodbye to Berlin, you’ll stop for photos at Charlottenburg Palace.

Amble through 800 years of maritime history on a guided Rostock walk that also includes a brewery stop and free time for independent exploration. This lively harbor and university city along the Warnow River has been a power player in shipbuilding and fishing ever since the heyday of the Hanseatic League – and despite heavy damage in WWII still has the buildings to prove it. Your stroll through the city center provides encounters with ancient towers, imposing fortifications, gabled houses from the 15th century and inspiring churches and abbeys, foremost of which is Marienkirche, a true Gothic stunner. During your free time here, you might browse the shops of picturesque New Market Square in the heart of old town, or stop in at the city’s signature medieval monastery, now home to a cultural history museum. And your reward for all this walking around? That visit to a Rostock brewery complex, where you’ll be invited to sample fresh-brewed German beer along with its ideal accompaniment, a salty pretzel.

Get a candid look at the weaponry and vehicles that Germany and Russia used during World War II and the Cold War. You will first visit a technology museum housed in a former air force base. The curator will accompany you through the hangars while describing the collection. Hangar One contains military vehicles such as Panzers, which are armored tanks that Germany produced until the end of World War II. You will even have the opportunity to be a passenger in a Panzer and experience the sheer power of these heavily armed tanks. Other attractions include motorcycles, police cars, helicopters and former Russian government limousines. Browsing the vehicles and aircraft and then watching a S-IL truck demonstrate its missile-launching capabilities will provide great insight into the mindsets of wartime Germany and Cold War communist Russia. You will then tour nearby Rostock, a city known for its characteristic deep-red brick buildings from Hanseatic times.

This non-guided tour is the perfect option for independent-minded travelers who relish the adventure of exploring at their own pace and with their own agenda. You’ll depart Warnemunde pier by coach with your escort, traveling through northern Germany to arrive in central Berlin in about 3 hours’ time. On arrival at the drop-off location, you’ll have approximately 6 hours in town to do, see and savor whatever most captures your imagination. While this is to be a self-directed day, your escort will be available for a time to equip you with a Berlin map and provide information about places you may want to visit while in the city. They will also confirm the time and place to rendezvous later for the return journey. Keep in mind that museum and attraction hours vary by day and season, and that meal or admission costs incurred during this visit are your responsibility. At the appointed time and location, you’ll rejoin your coach for the transfer back to Warnemunde. Plan this step wisely: those who run late for pickup must then make their own way back to the ship, at their own expense.
