Explore Germany's Baltic Coast, Denmark, Copenhagen & Lübeck
Explore this undiscovered corner of Germany, as we take you on a coach tour of pretty harbour towns, crystal-blue waters and tranquil villages. We begin with Greifswald, then we head to the little town of Stralsund, that lies on the strait of the Baltic Sea. We visit some of Germany’s most popular holiday resorts, such as the Isle of Usedom, and Rügen, Germany’s largest Island, where we can take a short journey by steam train, the best way to see the spectacular scenery. From here our itinerary takes us to the Danish capital of Copenhagen where we can explore the stylish city’s famous sights. Whilst in Denmark, we also offer guests the opportunity to visit the beautiful countryside and coastline. We return to Germany where you have the opportunity to enjoy a tour of Lübeck, the Queen of the Hanseatic cities, before our holiday comes to an end.

We continue through Germany to reach our hotel in Greifswald on the Baltic Coast for a four night stay.
This morning, after breakfast, we introduce you to the town of Greifswald on a brief included walking tour. We then head to nearby Stralsund, a little town which lies on a strait of the Baltic Sea. It is here that our guide will introduce you to the Old City on our included guided walking tour. We see the Gothic Town Hall, originally built in the 13th century and the Church of St. Mary’s. Afterwards we take to the water for a short cruise around the harbour.
Our destination today is the Isle of Usedom, which is one of Germany’s most popular holiday resorts due to its stunning natural beauty. We travel to Peenemünde, and to the highly acclaimed Historical Technical Museum, which between 1936 and 1945, was one of the most modern technological facilities in the world. In October 1942 the first launch of a missile into space took place here. It was also the development site of the infamous V1 and V2 rockets during WWII.
Included guided excursion to Rügen, Germany’s largest island, connected by two bridges with Stralsund. The island is a popular holiday destination due to its abundance of sandy beaches, national parks, and natural panoramas. During the day we include a short journey on the steam train from Putbus to Binz, the perfect way to see the island.
We head to Rostock where we board the ferry for the crossing to Denmark. Continue to the Copenhagen area, where we stay for three nights.
Spend time in the Danish capital on our included excursion, and to make the most of your visit, why not join our optional guided sightseeing tour? Copenhagen has many fascinating landmarks and beautiful architectural masterpieces, which are largely connected to the Danish throne and the royal family. Right in the centre of the city there are four Royal Palaces of which Amalienborg is the residence of Queen Margrethe ll. During the tour we also see ‘Den Lille Havfrue’ or ‘Little Mermaid’, sculptured by Edvard Eriksen; the statue is famous for being the inspiration for Hans Christian Andersen’s beautiful fairy-tale.
