Total Cost
🏰 Heidelberg Castle & Christmas Market — $112
A comfortable coach will take you to Heidelberg, the world
famous University City on the Neckar River. The town is one of
the few German cities with a widely preserved baroque Old Town.
Heidelberg was discovered quite early by romantics to use for
diverse literature, songs and paintings. The tour through Heidel-
berg begins with a visit to the castle. The formerly splendid
residence made of red sandstone has been a ruin, maybe the
most beautiful ruin in all of Germany. The castle tour leads also
into the castle garden. From the Grand Terrace you will have a
wonderful view of the city and the Neckar River.
The tour continues with a stroll through the enchanting old town,
to the Karl-Theodor Bridge, the late-gothic Church of the Holy
Spirit and the town hall. At the end of the tour you may take the
chance and stroll around the Christmas market of Heidelberg.
During the Advent season, the beautifully decorated Heidelberg
Christmas Market invites you to linger. Set against the romantic
backdrop of the Old Town, you can stroll among festively adorned
stalls, discover traditional handicrafts, and warm up with a cup
of hot mulled wine or punch. The scent of roasted almonds and
Christmas spices completes the magical winter atmosphere.
