Meersburg

Meersburg is located on the Germany side of Lake Constance and one of the most charming towns at Lake Constance. The medieval city is a dream for any pedestrian- there are no cars allowed inside the old town. The name Meersburg literally means “Burg on the Lake”. The ‘Burg’ is referring to the castle which was built here in 630 and now overlooking Lake Constance.

If you look at pictures of Meersburg you can see the the town is a must-see destination at Lake Constance. A ferry takes you and your car across to Konstanz every 15 minutes. You can also take a tour boat to reach Konstanz. In summer Meersburg gets overwhelmed by crowds of tourists, so ideally you visit in late spring or in fall.

Black Forest Travel Guide

A written Black Forest Travel Guide is difficult to find. Most travel books encompass all of Germany, only mentioning a few sentences about the Black Forest. The Black Forest of Germany is a popular travel destination for German and European visitors and therefore most of the information available to visitors is written in German or another European language. There are travel books like Rick Steves’ Travel Guide to Germany. But Rick Steves, after all, is a tourist as well. His knowledge and understanding of the Black Forest is limited to his own experience, not what you would get directly from a local. If you want to travel like a local – we are the locals.

Over the years we have compiled all our experiences into one compact Black Forest Travel Guidebook. With each purchase of one of our Black Forest tours you will be receiving a complimentary copy of the ‘Feel at Home in the Black Forest’ travel guide. Different sections will explain the local food to you, the local traditions and customs. With our guide you can confidently travel in the Black Forest.
