Hello, everybody. This is our first trip in Germany ( me and my husband ). We have about 8-9 days and the first day we%26#39;ll be staying in Nurnberg ( my ant leaves there ).
Could you advice please what cities we should visit ( where to stay ) and should we rent a car or use the train. We%26#39;d like to see castles, museums, etc.
Also, it would be great to see Salzburg and Vienna. Don%26#39;t know if it%26#39;s possible with our time frame.
Thanks a lot, Alla

If you decide to use the excellent trains, check out the website www.bahn.de If you use the Bayern Ticket you can both travel as far as you like within the area after 9am until 3am next day for about 30 euros. You could travel all the way to Salzburg on this deal. Vienna is a bit far for your timescale.
I%26#39;m no expert on the entire area, but I have visited the Bavarian Alps, Salzburg and Munich. All were wonderful and very do-able using public transport. Enjoy your trip.

Definitely take advantage of the train. Information about the Bayer-Tickets [24 or 26 €] is at bahn.de/-S:PtVORd:d9E-jtNNYyadcNNNNPIM/p/vie…
A download pdf map of the area where the Bayern-Ticket can be used is at bahn.de/-S:PtVOR9:dC1IPdNNo6q5h9NNNcEM/regio…

Definately use the InterCity and InterCity Express (ICE) trains for any travel. My wife and I visited Germany in 2004 and will be returning this may %26#39;06 and be using DeutcheBahn rail. German rail way is 100x better than anything in north america. Rail stations (Bahnhof%26#39;s) are clear, clean and accurate and trains are always ontime (esp. in Germany). Visit the reiseauskunft.bahn.de to see schedules and ETA%26#39;s for distances. Consider a Rail pass, it%26#39;s cheaper for non-europeans if you%26#39;re going to be travelling more than 3 days.

I agree with all the above, but you can%26#39;t use the ICE trains with the bargain Bayern ticket. I suppose you have to weigh up the advantages of the extra time you would gain by using the faster trains against the extra cost.
