Hi Mainhattengirl, my original itinerary did include Frankfurt but in past posts people have said to disregard the city as it is largely business oriented. Is frankfurt worth seeing, or would Munich be a better choice?

Thanks everyone for the suggestions.

Frankfurt is a very historic city. If you like museums, are interested in Jewish history, the Holy Roman Empire, medieval churches, Farmers Markets, Botanical Gardens, or festivals, you will have a good time in this city. Yes, we have a lot of banks, but we have lots of other things to interest folks.

frankfurt is OK - but I think Munich has a lot more to see/do -at least that interests me.

Here's what, IMO, makes them not so "worth it": when "that person or persons" cannot seem to get themselves onto the bus on time and you wait, and wait, and wait...
