Private Xmas Market Hopping with wine tasting and gondola ride
Overview
On this private tour you will experience three of the most beautiful Christmas markets in Germany- Mainz, Rüdesheim and Wiesbaden. And the best thing: all of this can be done in a relaxing day trip from Frankfurt.
At each location you will have time to soak up the special character of the market, taste the typical specialties and of course the famous Glühwein. I will naturally provide you with profound explanations of the various Christmas traditions and culinary delights.
The best way to enjoy the quaint little town of Rüdesheim is by cable car from where you'll be spoiled with fantastic views of the vineyards & the Rhine Valley. One of Germany's oldest monasteries, the world's first Riesling winery and of course some wine tastings here and there will also be included.
Anyhow you will be having an unforgettable day, enjoy delicious food & excellent wines, mingle with the locals and listen to a lot of entertaining little anecdotes that you certainly won’t find in your travel guide.
