What is your favorite place in Europe so far?

Germany! We took the Rhine/Castle Sampler and enjoyed it immensely.

Where would you most like to go next?

New York

Tell us about one of your favorite places to stay on an Untour. Do you have a favorite host? Apartment? Village?

Trude Manthe was our delightful host in Kaub, Germany on the Rhine. She was wonderful, and the Manthe 3 apartment was spacious and relaxing.
We had a wonderful time in Schloss Sommersdorf. We stayed in the Emily apartment, very light and roomy, and were absolutely blown away with the castle grounds and our hosts.

Which Untours have you already done?

Rhine/Castle Sampler in Germany

Are you going to Germany next year or to another part of Europe?

If you have any questions about how the cafe works or if you run into any difficulties, let me or Marilee or Kim know so we can give you hand!

At 8:21am on September 18, 2007, Powen Shiah said…: Hi Linda, thanks for the friend request. Untours do include ground transportation -- but the type depends on the specific Untour location. City programs usually offer metro / bus passes; the more rural areas are divided up between rental cars and rail passes. For example, in Germany, the Rhine Untour includes rail passes while the Bavarian Castle program includes a rental car.

I have done several Untours and have been extremelyy pleased with each one. The trips I've taken to Germany have been on my own. I spent a month in Germany in 2000 studying German at the Goethe Institute in Berlin. Then have spent two months each in the winter of 2004 and 2005 in Berlin. I rent my house and then rent an apt. there.
Untour does have apts. in Berlin and it was an add on to one of their German trips, but am not sure of the status of Berlin at the moment.

I have German friends who live in Iserlohn, near Dorthmud and Hagen so have visited there. From Berlin I've taken the train to Munich, Augsburg, Stuttgart and Dresden.
I would be glad to answer any questions if you are planning to visit one of those spots.

At 4:03pm on September 25, 2007, Marlene Hench said…: Hi Linda,
Have you decided on an Untour yet? As you can see by all of us happy Untour travelers, it's a great way to go. Once you go, you'll be hooked. I was afraid to travel in Europe at first but once we went with Untours and saw how easy it was, we just can't stop.

We went to Germany in 2006. Did the Bavarian Castle Untour. Absolutely fabulous!!!! Actually we went in late September during Oktoberfest. Read my blog about Oktoberfest. The Baron and his wife are soooo nice and such good hosts. Staying at the castle was like being in a fairy tale. Even walk over a moat to reach the castle gate. Check out my photos. We stayed in the Gabrielle apartment (highly recommend) which is right in the castle itself. If you want any more info about it, let me know.
