Hi all! I’m in Germany from 22nd to 23rd in Munich but I was thinking of basing out of Nuremberg after that until the 26th. From there I can visit rothenberg, Bayreuth, and bamberg. How does this plan sound? Planning to spend a few days in Berlin then cologne after that.

I know some crazy people who just do one day trips around one city. You need to know your pace and stamina. Are you capable of changing cities daily? Won't you get too tired? Will you really be able to sleep properly on a bus? etc.
