GETTING AROUND WITHIN GERMANY
Traveling within Germany is very easy and there are plenty of ways you can do it -- each of them fun depending on your time and proclivity.
By car
Germany's Autobahn covers a distance of approximately 7600 miles with no tolls for passenger cars. For being flexible and independent, car rental is the best option, naturally. Best part: there are about 150 scenic routes with several castles and palaces where extraordinary culinary experiences can be made.
By train
Since Germany has an extensive, safe, and comfortable rail network, almost every part in Germany is accessible. High-speed ICE trains can speed up to 190 miles/hour and run every hour connecting more than 50 towns, whereas regional trains connect the smaller towns in Germany. Local services are well-connected to national train services in order to provide excellent connections. For timetables and more info, visit Deutsche Bahn. The available tickets are point-to-point tickets, which are cheaper when purchased several days in advance. For longer travel periods and more flexibility, German rail passes can be purchased from Rail Europe that allow for unlimited travel on a certain amount of days and do not require any reservations in advance.
By bus
Modern and well-maintained coaches deliver their customers safely and comfortably to points across the country. Various themed trips, excursions and club tours are offered by several operators.
By public transport
For travel in and around cities, there are plenty of good connections reached quickly and easily by underground or local suburban railway. Larger cities even have night buses running all night long during the week.
By taxi
In bigger towns there are many taxi ranks and taxis can also be hailed on the street. If you're headed to a small town where there is only little traffic, it's best to order a taxi in advance. Those who travel short distances can agree on "short trip fares" with the driver.
