Has anyone been to Germany recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers

Word of caution — do not carry too much cash. Other than that, great destination.

How long did it take to feel comfortable and find the good spots?

Quick question — how was the transport?

Different experience for me. Prices were about the same when I went.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to get a local SIM.

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.

I was there in March and prices were about average. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.
