This new tour combines the vibrant city of Berlin with the historic coastline, and highlights the changing face of Germany over the last 700 years. Berlin has much to offer visitors, including museums, galleries and the more recent Cold War history. The northern coastline is a great base from which to explore the mediaeval cities of the Hanseatic League, such as Lübeck and Schleswig.
