The little mini town festivals are incredible, we so enjoyed one near Seeg in the Allgau in Aug 2023. Yes used cash a bit more that I thought but did bring enough. Used many of your tips so thanks again for the solid info.
I am heading to Munich in March, your videos have helped me plan some very nice day trips. I just wanted to stop and say thank you for all the videos and adventures to come!
Hello again! I'm heading to Munich in late August, and planning to use it for a base several days to make day trips to Passau, and Noerdlingen, and trying again to visit Werdenfels Burgruine. From there, heading again to Dresden and Leipzig for a swing through Quedlinburg and Wernigerode and the castles and churches along the way. This will be a 3 week visit this year, with a final week in Wien. I've been using several of your videos to find more unusual destinations that aren't truly overrun by tourists, but are still interesting to me. I spent 19 1/2 months in Germany from January 1963 to mid August 1964 in Mannheim, so other than a brief visit to Heidelberg in 2023 to revisit the castle and old bridge--I've attempted to see some of Germany that was then inaccessible to westerners due to the Communists. So far, my favorite destinations have been Bamberg, Wuerzburg, Leipzig, Dresden, and Wittenberg. The scenery is everywhere lovely in this beautiful country. When traveling with my daughter in 2023, she particularly enjoyed the Residenz in Wuerzburg and sill raves about the interior.
I would say the usage of cards is becoming more and more normal. But especially in smaller shops or places, it could be that they do not accept cards. And in some other places you need to spend at least a cetain amount of money to do so. Sure, it is nothing like in the US, but it is definitely improving in the last years. So, ofc alwyas smart to have some cash with you. But I would also recommend that in Italy or France etc.
I've noticed this too, but when we go into the mountains, we always have cash. The Hütten and small shops almost never accept cards. It's getting better in the city though.
That’s is Traunkirchen in the Salzkammergut. A true hidden gem vastly overshadowed by Salzburg and Hallstatt. We did a bunch of videos out there years ago that I’d still highly recommend. We’ve gone back to that area many times since filming and we still love it.
Just got back from a cheeky mini break in Nuremberg, with visits to Bamberg, Rothenburg o. b. Tauber, and Nördlingen. I wouldn't have been to most of the above if it wasn't for this channel 👍
That’s incredible!!! And also pretty funny, as I read your comment I am sitting in front of my laptop writing a new video - “A 6 day romantic getaway from Nuremberg itinerary” - Specifically tying all of those places together for people! 🤣
Yeah, a bit of change is often nice to have for bathrooms and stuff to pay the attendant if there is one. It’s not every bathroom, but enough that it’s worth keeping a euro or less in little coins in your pocket.

Sounds great!
having cash on hand was most helpful

Thank you so much. Looks stunning however Austria is not in our itinerary at this point but I will definitely tag it on my map!

Hi there! Have you been to Neuburger Schlossfest already? Or to Nördlingen Stadtmauerfest?
Is it also true that cash is needed for bathrooms?
Yeah, a bit of change is often nice to have for bathrooms and stuff to pay the attendant if there is one. It’s not every bathroom, but enough that it’s worth keeping a euro or less in little coins in your pocket.
