Germany holiday FAQs
Stride through the Black Forest’s wooded vales on a fly-drive holiday in Germany, speckled with hip-roofed (four-sided roof) farmhouses, or schuss down the Bavarian Alps’ slopes. Off Germany’s north coast, the Frisian Islands’ dunes and cliffs are pummelled by the North Sea. In western Germany, the River Rhine snakes past gently sloping vineyards and turreted castles. Edge east to climb the bizarre pinnacles of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains.
Discover the rich variety of Germany’s 16 states: from Rhineland Palatinate’s castle-dotted vineyards in the west to the north coast’s rolling dunes, thrashed by the North Sea. In summer, hike the Black Forest’s velvety woodlands streaked with purple heather. Down south, the first snow lures skiers to the pointy Bavarian Alps, grazing the Austrian border.
Citizens of the UK and Ireland and EU passport holders do not need a visa to visit Germany. If you hold a passport from a country or territory outside of these areas, you may need to apply for a visa before you travel. You can find out more about visa requirements for all the countries we fly to at the IATA Travel Centre.
