We started our visit with the city center which is charming. Everything looks gorgeous with the medieval buildings that make you think you are in an old movie. We want to show you some pictures from teh center of Rosenheim in Max-Josefs-Platz and Ludwigsplatz:

Saving Tips

  •  TRY A LOW-COST AIRLINE: Consider low-cost airline options from the US to Germany, including Norwegian Airlines.
  • SEASON” SAVINGS: If you can, try to visit Germany in June or September. You’ll find better deals during these months and the weather is still usually very pleasant. 
  • Book your train early – Trains in Germany are expensive but you can get a saver ticket that is around 40-50% off the standard fare if you book at least a week in advance.

Modes of public transport in Germany: 

S-bahn (city rapid rail), and, as the name suggests, is the fastest form of public transportation.

U-Bahn is the German version of the metro.

Tram – They travel on rails alongside regular roads and have multiple stops within city center areas.

Buses are the mainstay of many German towns and cities, linking further-afield places and operating into the night when the other forms of transport stop running (although S-Bahn and U-bahn trains typically run all night over the weekend in larger cities).

Regional trains are either RB (Regionalbahn), with multiple stops, or RE (Regionalexpress), which are faster and have fewer stops.
