On this four-day route, you are going to explore some of the best bits of Germany. You will head for the Bavarian region, famous for its beer-filled Oktoberfest, but there is so much more than that, as you will see during your road trip. Enchanting castles, authentic cities and great scenery for example. You will walk in a 'silly' forest and sleep in a barrel. Above all that, you get a chance to see the heart of the world-famous car brand Audi. The route will take you to Koblenz, Nuremberg, Ingolstadt, Augsburg, Heidelberg and back to Düsseldorf.

Hey, up already? Great! Because day number two is waiting for you. You will drive deeper into Bavaria to see an Italian villa. What? Yes, for real. If that doesn't confuse you, wait until you get to the next stop, where you won't know what is up and what is down! The highlight of today is your visit to the medieval town of Rothenburg. Oh, by the way, what did you have for breakfast? In Bavaria, they like to eat white sausages for breakfast (weisswurst). If you see them somewhere on the map, try them!
