Situated in the heart of Europe, Germany is steeped in history and has shaped much the political workings of Europe. Often stereotyped, the Germans are largely misunderstood, as is the culture which, again, is cliche. Germany has a lot to offer the visitor, including many cities - Berlin, Cologne, Munich, to name but a few. A trip along the Rhine is a must, as is a visit to the Alpine lakes and the Bavarian forests. This vast country has an excellent road network and makes car hire an attractive proposition.
