An old white cremlin with mighty walls. Inside there is an old church with probably the highest iconostas in Eurasia which probably is over 500 years old. Furthermore you can climb the walls and enjoy a beautiful view all over the monastery and the city between the river.

Gediminas Castle

History museum
Museums
Fortress
Gediminas Castle Tower, a 3-story brick tower dating back to the 15th century, offers visitors an impressive 360-degree panorama of Vilnius from the top of Gediminas Hill. Before taking in the breathtaking views, visitors can explore an exhibition inside the tower that delves into the history of Vilnius as the political center of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.
The views from the top of the tower and the castle walls are gorgeous. Definitely worth the 2 euros for the one way funicular ride. The tower itself has a small museum inside. The 8 euros for entry are more for the unobstructed city views at the top of the tower from the than the exhibits. But they are instructive and geared towards families. In summary, it's best way to either start or finish your day in Vilnius.
Eric F — Google review
Free to walk up to and around the grounds for a fantastic view but you have to pay for the tower. Be careful of the stones going up to the castle or you can take the funicular for 3EUR return. Would highly recommend to visit for the beautiful scenes!
Yeesh R — Google review
Did a walk up because the funicular was closed on a sunday. It's not too bad. Saw little children hopping up and many old couples doing it too. Beautiful views. Totally worth the climb.
Paul T — Google review
Gediminas Tower offers one of the best panoramic views of Vilnius. The climb up the hill is short but rewarding, and the tower’s small museum gives a clear overview of Lithuania’s medieval history. The restored structure is simple yet symbolic, standing proudly above the city. It can get windy and crowded, but the scenery makes it absolutely worth the visit.
Dani B — Google review
Visiting Gediminas Hill was a memorable experience, worth every step. The view from the top is breathtaking, and the tower itself is a reminder of Vilnius’ roots and legends. Helpful tips for tourists: • 🚶‍♂️ The funicular is currently out of service, so you have to climb on foot. The path is steep – wear comfortable shoes. • ⏰ Best time to go is before sunset, when the city is painted in warm colors. • 🎟️ Inside the tower, there’s a museum about the history of Vilnius castles. • 👨‍👩‍👧 The climb may be challenging for kids, but the experience is rewarding. • 📸 Don’t forget your camera – the panoramic views are among the best in Vilnius.
Oksana O — Google review
Visited on our day trip to Vilnius. There was no funicular working on the day which was limiting for some visiting. The path up is part cobble (very uneven) and wooden stairs so while the renovation is ongoing if you have mobility issues it may not be for you(September25). Good Views of the city. €8 to enter. We did not go in. The whole site is limited due to restoration work but still worth the climb
Beverley B — Google review
Gediminas Castle is a great place to visit in Vilnius. It’s on a hill, and from the top, you get an amazing view of the whole city, especially at sunset. You can walk up or take the funicular if you don’t want to climb. The tower has a small museum inside where you can learn a bit about Lithuania’s history. It’s not very big. The best part is definitely the view, it’s perfect for photos and just relaxing for a while. If you’re in Vilnius, this is one of the top spots to see!
Joyatee D — Google review
Nice place to have a great view of the Vilnius city. Visitors have to climb up couple of minutes to go top of it. Tickets are necessary if you would like to top if the castle otherwise you can still enjoy beautiful views from nearby of the tower.

Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fighters

National museum
Museums
Specialty Museums
The Museum of Occupations and Freedom Fights is housed in a former KGB headquarters and prison, showcasing the resilience of the Lithuanian people during the Nazi and Soviet occupations. The museum provides insight into the country's military history, featuring exhibits and old combat equipment. It offers visitors a chance to learn about the fierce resistance of Lithuanians throughout the 20th century, honoring those who lost their lives in this historic struggle.
This was a very heavy experience. They do not sugar-coat the atrocities. This museum has so much information and history. I HIGHLY recommend buying the regular ticket AND the audio tour. If you don’t have it, it’s too much to read. There are hundreds of things to learn about and read, so the audio is awesome. They give you the player and the headphones, so don’t worry about bringing anything. Going through the entire museum took us 3.5 hours and we could have gone longer but we hadn’t eaten yet and were very hungry. The audio tour also tells you a bit more information than just reading the English signage. I’ve been quite a few places in Vilnius and this is the one place I think EVERYONE should go. Please be respectful while you’re there and try to learn as much as you can.
Jenna T — Google review
From my personal interest, this is one of the most fascinating museums I've ever visited. A building which was both a "home" for the Gestapo and the KGB, it is now a museum which tells the story of the people of Lithuania during decades of occupation, repression and death. The most eerie parts are the corridors of the prison cells and the execution chamber. I truly recommend this museum for anyone visiting Vilnius
Guy A — Google review
Everyone who goes to Vilnius should go to this museum... as a reminder of the suffering of the Lithuanian people in their struggle for independence and freedom. Be prepared though... it is very sad and some of the information was shocking. But it's a must do if you're visiting Vilnius.
Paul C — Google review
This place is practically living history. I assume some of the people who worked here are still living. It's a pretty sinister place. People can really think of ways to make the lives of others miserable if they don't conform to their rules. It makes me think that humanity should be doomed. All of the material is presented in Lithuanian and English.
Kirstjen L — Google review
A sobering account of Soviet oppression at a telling moment in modern times. This museum is a converted former KGB prison, with detailed explanation of the horrors of incarceration and what it feels like to be culturally and politically suppressed by an aggressive hostile country. It recounts the resistance efforts of ordinary Lithuanians in the face of insurmountable odds, and reveals their heroism even in the bleakest of times.
NickyC67 — Google review
Somber and very sobering. A must see and visit place to understand the Baltic States' history and current situation. Very detailed history of the KGB and the oppression of the Lithuanian people. It's a listed building and kept as much as it was when Vilnius returned to an independent state. Incredible lower level prison cells and interrogation rooms of political prisoners. There is an execution room but we could only last 30 seconds in there as it was to upsetting. We were the only ones there. Afterwards we went to see the names carved in the stone bricks at the front of the building. Emotional and enlightening visit.

Former KGB prison. To day a museum with a very complete documentation and very visible exhibition of the horrible and terrifying history of Latvia before- , during and after the war. Breathtaking and goothbumps for me and I thinka lot of visitors.

Trakai Island Castle

Mentioned on 
+37 other lists 
Castle
Museums
Trakai Island Castle is a picturesque turreted castle situated on a serene island in Lake Galve, just off the coast of Trakai. Dating back to the 14th century, this Gothic castle offers visitors a glimpse into Lithuania's rich history and culture. Connected to the mainland by a charming footbridge, the castle houses the impressive Trakai History Museum, showcasing an array of artifacts including chainmail, medieval weapons, embroidery, and glassware.
A Trip Back in Time at Trakai Castle! Wow, what an incredible place! If you want to feel like you’ve stepped straight into a fairytale, you absolutely have to visit Trakai Castle. The whole experience starts with a walk across a wooden bridge over the lake, and the view of the majestic red-brick towers is just breathtaking. From the moment you arrive, you get this amazing medieval feeling. We had the best time exploring the cobblestone courtyard, climbing the wooden stairs, and peeking into the old halls. You can almost hear the echoes of knights and dukes from centuries ago! The museum inside is really well done and brings the castle's fascinating history to life. It truly feels like a journey back to the 15th century. Just a friendly heads-up, the castle is currently undergoing some important restoration work to keep it looking fantastic for years to come. While this means some areas might be sectioned off, it honestly didn't affect our visit. There is still so much to see and explore, and the atmosphere is completely magical. Don't let the ongoing work put you off! This place is 100% worth the visit for its stunning beauty and incredible historical vibe. We absolutely loved it!
Kestas G — Google review
Visiting Trakai Island Castle was like stepping into a living piece of Lithuanian history. The moment you cross the wooden bridge over Lake Galvė, the red-brick towers appear in full majesty — calm, proud, and full of stories. Inside, each hall has its own character: the Grand Duke’s chamber feels royal and atmospheric, the armory impresses with real swords and armor, and the exhibition about Vytautas the Great brings the medieval world to life. I loved how well-preserved everything is — you can almost imagine knights, musicians, and nobles walking through these halls centuries ago. Helpful Tips for Visitors: Arrive early, especially on weekends — it gets crowded quickly. Book tickets online in advance to skip the queue. Take a guided tour or audio guide — it adds so much depth to the visit. Bring cash for local shops or snacks — not all vendors accept cards. Don’t miss the inner courtyard and lake views — perfect for photos. Families with kids should visit the dungeon and towers — they’re always a hit! After the castle, try the legendary kibinai at “Senoji Kibininė” nearby — the perfect finish to your day. Trakai Castle isn’t just a tourist attraction — it’s a real time machine that lets you feel the spirit of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. A must-see for anyone who loves history, architecture, or simply beautiful places that make you pause and breathe in the past.

Stunning castle in one of the most beautiful settings in the world. We were lucky with the weather as it had been raining all day the previous day. The restauration of the castle is amazing and still ongoing. Certain areas were closed because of that and because we visited out of season. But still lots to see with a huge number of period artefacts. Gives you an idea of how important trade was. Tranquil setting with nice walks in the area. Not many visitors but I can imagine it gets very busy in Summer. Good restaurants around on the lake side leading to the castle. It's a good walk from the station, about 3km, but beautiful along the lakes. The whole experience was magnificent and the on site toilets were immaculate. Access for wheelchair users a bit tricky and you need to be fairly sure footed due to the old cobbled roads and paths. But what a place. Return rail ticket from Vilnius was about €6.

A very cool medieval castle and a museum! Despite some rain and October gloomy weather, we had a great time exploring the castle. The grey skies gave the whole location a nice vibe, and the forest and lake surrounding the castle looked stunning.

Had an lovely experience visiting Trakai. Nestled in nature, the entire environment is incredibly calming and beautiful. The colorful houses and the vibrant surroundings make it a truly picturesque destination. The peaceful ambiance, especially with water all around, adds to the tranquility. And of course, if you visit, you absolutely must try the kibinai, a delicious local treat that adds an authentic touch. Absolutely worth the trip!
Joyatee D — Google review
I visited Trakai Castle in October, and it was absolutely stunning. The autumn colors made the entire island look like something out of a fairy tale — golden leaves reflecting on the calm lake, with the red brick walls of the castle standing proudly in the middle. The weather was cool but pleasant, perfect for exploring without crowds. The walk across the wooden bridge to the castle is beautiful and gives you plenty of photo opportunities. Inside, the museum is well-organized, with interesting exhibits about Lithuanian history, the Grand Dukes, and medieval life. There’s also a sense of calm and history that you can really feel as you wander through the courtyards and towers. Even though some areas felt a bit touristy (like the souvenir stalls near the entrance), it didn’t take away from the experience. I’d recommend stopping at one of the nearby cafés to try kibinai, the local pastry — warm and delicious on a chilly autumn day. Overall: A must-visit if you’re in Lithuania. Trakai Castle in autumn is simply magical — peaceful, picturesque, and full of history.

We visited a beautiful, photogenic castle situated on an island surrounded by water.

The Trakai Island Castle (Trakų salos pilis) is a stunning medieval fortress set on an island in Lake Galvė, Lithuania. Reached by wooden bridges, it feels like stepping into a fairytale. The red-brick towers, calm waters, and scenic surroundings make it one of the country’s most photogenic spots. The museum inside is informative, and boat views are magical at sunset. A must-visit day trip from Vilnius for history and nature lovers alike.

Kaunas Town Hall is a must-visit if you’re exploring Lithuania’s second-largest city!

It has served many purposes over the centuries—city hall, prison, and even a wedding venue! Today, it houses the Kaunas City Museum, where you can learn about the city’s rich history. Take a stroll around the charming square, grab a coffee at a nearby café, and soak in the atmosphere of this beautiful and lively spot!

The Kaunas Town Hall is a beautiful and impressive building – a real highlight in the heart of the Old Town. The architecture is elegant, and the surrounding square is full of charm and history. It’s a great spot for photos and a nice place to sit and take in the atmosphere. Unfortunately, during our visit, the building was under renovation, so we couldn’t fully enjoy or explore it. It’s understandable that maintenance is necessary, but it was a bit disappointing not to see it in its full glory. Still, it’s a lovely landmark and definitely worth stopping by if you’re in Kaunas – hopefully next time without scaffolding!

Water park
Water & Amusement Parks
The Druskininkai Aquapark is a large water park that offers visitors an exciting experience with its numerous thrilling slides and waves, as well as more relaxing bathhouses and saunas. It is the ideal location for both relaxation and fun. Those without children can enjoy the quieter bath area, which features a pool, saunas, hamam, and allows drinks inside. However, it is disappointing that there are currently no bathhouse programs available.
Visiting this water park was a dream come true — first because of its unique Soviet-era architecture, and second because it turned out to be a really fun water park as well! Our favorite part was the jumping ball in one of the pools. Definitely worth a visit!

We return for the past 3 years to enjoy the most amazing pools, slides, saunas, steam rooms and the best coffee in the morning. It’s not just the facilities but the quality of water in all facilities is magical and the skin feels baby soft after swimming. My daughter had a very rough feeling skin and after just spending 3 days swimming it’s back to feeling so smooth and soft. We usually go for basic 2 rooms next to each other since we are family of 6 and they are fine with comfortable beds and great everyday cleaning service to keep all tidy. Even though we are returning not the first time we never get bored and always looking forward to enjoy and explore magnificent Druskininkai town and the surroundings.

Sauna area it is really attractive. A fantastic thing is that entry there is from the age of 18. In addition, in the sauna area you can, for an extra fee, book a private sauna for two. You should also check out the special programs held every hour in some of the saunas. Unfortunately, you will never find all the saunas operating at once – one or several are always closed. The rest of the water park is completely basic and ordinary, just like other water parks.

Great experience. Kids loved it. We had a lot more kids than adults so it was a bit different to visit everything as adults must accompany children everywhere. We booked two hours but it was not enough. Three would have been perfect. We booked adult saunas but it was a bit of waste of money as we had no time to go, kids wanted to go everywhere. Otherwise great facilities, clean and nice.

The park is home to the Palace on the Isle, which was built as the summer residence of Stanisław II Augustus, the last king of Poland. Visitors can explore his extensive art collection displayed within the palace. Additionally, the park features the renowned Fryderyk Chopin Monument and beautifully landscaped gardens.
A beautiful place and calming garden. It’s peaceful, perfect for walks and picnics. I love all the squirrels 🐿️, pigeons 🕊️, and peacocks 🦚 I also love the theatre and the old orangery. I’ve had the pleasure to sing there, it was fantastic 🎶🎙️

This is a magnificent park. It’s peaceful, beautiful, and wonderful. Even on a crowded day, it’s fairly easy to find some quiet space to yourself. The squirrels are beyond adorable so make sure you bring some delicious nuts for them.

Lovely afternoon with fantastic weather today. Beautiful autumn leaves, few peacocks and cute squirrels. A lot of room for long walks, also plenty of benches to sit down and relax. One of the places you must see when visiting Warsaw, whatever the season.

Łazienki Park is simply charming. It's a very beautiful, peaceful place, perfect for a relaxing stroll. Along the way, you can see various animals like squirrels, peacocks, and ducks, which make the experience even more enjoyable and fun. Perfect for those who want to connect with nature without leaving the city.

Amazing and massive park area. People handfeed the peacocks and red squirrels by the palace. I was shocked how friendly the animals are. One red squirrel came up to me and climbed on my leg thinking I have food. Back in the UK this is unimaginable as animals over there have to be wary of humans.

Incredible huge park with multiple old buildings and a vast network of trails and paths. Washrooms are easy to find comma and there is more seating/benches than any other Park I have seen. Be sure to find the peacocks that hang out near the education center

Museums
Muzeum Powstania Warszawskiego is a powerful memorial and museum that vividly portrays the 1944 battle for independence in Poland. Through an array of exhibits, including photographs, personal belongings, and audiovisual materials, visitors are immersed in the harrowing experiences of Warsaw's residents during Nazi occupation and the uprising. The museum features a replica Liberator B-24J bomber hanging from the ceiling, where guests can watch a film depicting post-destruction Warsaw.
Amazing museum. We got there around two hours before closing and still couldn’t get through it all! We did stop often to read the signs. It really gives a sense of how that terrible period was like with commentary that is still relevant today. Good price and clean place. Took a tram nearby to the old town.

To begin, Warsaw's diverse collection of museums is a significant attraction, and this particular museum is one that I highly recommend visiting with an audio guide. The Uprising Museum and Uprising Monument are located in two separate locations. It's worth noting that admission to this museum is free on Thursdays. The Warsaw Rising Museum's purpose is to honor the memory of the Warsaw Uprising's participants and victims, document the history of the Polish Underground State, and recount the story of the city's 63-day resistance against Nazi occupation during WWII. The museum features extensive video evidence documenting the atrocities that occurred. The exhibition commences with a timeline of events and then proceeds to a room used to educate children. I was stunned. Additionally, I found that I was unprepared for some of the video evidence. Towards the end of the exhibition, there was a video marked 'drastic scenes.' I was unable to view it. I experienced a panic attack. I met a gentleman whose face was severely swollen. He cried throughout the entire exhibition. One aspect that I had not previously realized until viewing the videos is the significant pride displayed by those individuals perpetrating such brutality.

It's a really cool place, that's for sure, but if you want to actually spend time reading everything (and there is a LOAD to read), it's not really... accommodating. A load of sounds, very dark, many bright/contrasting lights. I walked in knowing nothing and fine and walked out still knowing nothing with a headache. But the layout is very visually interesting, and I bet the texts are very good, but I gave up on reading them after the first few 'stations' because I genuinely couldn't focus 🤷‍♂️

Very good museum about the Warsaw Uprising; educational and really well made. The guides were professional and knowledgeable on the subject, as well as each of the partisans and insurgents stories really touched my heart. It’s amazing to see such bravery while being crushed under the weight of hostilities and brutal suppression.

Impressive, saddening, well/maintained and displayed. Words are not enough to tell about it. What an edge people live on, between the war and the peace.

One of the best museums ive ever been to. Informative and graphic at points really hits home the struggles and efforts of the WP. There are also sporadic sections with the ghettos and impacts on the Jewish community. Kudos to the museum for innovative ways of hiding the more graphic imagery in little concrete Wells or high up in peep holes. 10/10

Specialty Museums
Muzeum Piernika, located in a historic 1863 granary, offers an immersive experience into the tradition of gingerbread-making in Torun. Visitors can engage in hands-on baking activities and explore the city's rich history of gingerbread production. The cobblestone streets are filled with the enticing aroma of ginger and cinnamon, leading to numerous Piernik shops where visitors can sample some of the best gingerbread cookies.
This is a place you can’t miss when visiting Toruń. From the moment you enter, you can feel the great atmosphere—people are friendly and fun. It’s a fantastic spot for everyone, whether children or adults. You can learn how gingerbread was made in the past and even bake your own at the end of the experience. I recommend booking tickets in advance, as availability is limited and they sell out quickly.
Mateusz R — Google review
We visited as a family and had a wonderful experience. We joined the session with simultaneous English translation, which was very well done. The visit begins with a storytelling session that takes you through the history of gingerbread in the region, followed by a hands-on activity where you make your own gingerbread with traditional tools and guidance — a great mix of fun and learning. What stood out to us was not just the content of the museum, but also the warmth and professionalism of the staff — from the hosts to the interpreters, everyone was incredibly welcoming and engaged. There are also additional small activities that make the whole visit even more enjoyable, especially for kids. It’s truly an experience that appeals to both children and adults. Torun itself is a beautiful and impressive city, and this museum is one of those special places that reflect its rich history in an interactive and memorable way. Highly recommended, especially for families looking to enjoy something meaningful and fun together.
Taylan A — Google review
This was pointed out to us by friends as a fun thing to do, so we bought tickets and waded in. It's a museum plus interactive venue where you actually get to make some gingerbread. You are actually informed, however, not to eat the gingerbread you make as the process is rushed and the recipe is not quite right. Fun nonetheless. It's fun and informative, so give it a go.
Steve R — Google review
I was really excited to attend the Ginger Bread Making Tour and even planned my entire day around it. English tour... I was given earpieces to listen but extremely poor quality sound systems. It was such a poor experience(they only working hard on the sales of thier gingerbread) which was deeply disappointing given how much I was looking forward it. Anyway just interesting for kids.

Very Good and Interactive muzeum from learning what gingerbreads are made from to making them yourself and them there is a chance to decorate your own gingerbread for an extra 8PLN that you can eat. There is 2 parts the medieval time and the early 20th century. When you are exploring Toruń it is certainly worth a visit. The show in English is at 2pm but in Polish it is every full hour.

We joined the 2pm English-synchronized tour and it was an overall great experience. I don't get those reviews that complain about the synchronisation. In our case, the guy that did the live translation added so much value. I guess humour is a matter of taste - but this was exactly my taste; give that man a raise! 😃 It was a very entertaining/interactive experience and the Polish language parts made the experience even more authentic to me.

Wow, what a great experience for kids and adults. The gingerbread class workshop is such a memorable experience. Excellent performance by the friendly staff. Would recommend it to anyone having a spare hour in old town Torun. Great location. Exit through a gift shop. Well worth the ticket price.

Jasna Góra is a significant spiritual site in Poland, established by the Paulite order in 1382. The monastery houses the revered Icon of the Black Madonna of Czestochowa and various other sacred artworks. Pilgrims are drawn to this location due to reported miracles associated with the Black Madonna painting in the Chapel of Lady. The site also features an information center that offers guided tours in English.
A truly magical place. Visiting Jasna Góra Monastery was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere is filled with peace and spiritual energy. You can feel a deep sense of calm and sacredness the moment you walk through the gates. A must-visit for anyone seeking reflection, history, or simply a moment of inner peace.

A heathen here. A pretty magnificent church. Our tour uses a local tour guide who takes us through the church while the Mass is in progress. He's also very thorough with the small museum.

We had a great stay, but yes they use too much chlorine in the water and since chlorine is a gas and is not trapped well in warm water the atmosphere is feeling heavy of chlorine. This is unfortunate. Having said that, we had a great stay. Not all the staff are polite as expected but the greatest majority are good. They are just not very confortable with English. The service was good however. We stayed at the sunrise houses and it was a great surprise. It was clean and very fresh, almost new even.

It’s an incredible experience that I will never do again. The waterpark aspect is nice and huge, but every beach chair is taken by towels… You can change to swim wear in the dome but there are not enough closets for everyone and the ones that seem available are broken. Meaning the lock doesn’t work. The food is bad and the service to get the food is worse - it’s horrendous. They have hired just about 1 server per restaurant and they only speak German. Today our dinner restaurant at Ohana hotel where we stay, had run out of 2 food items, of 5 available, and ketchup. At least they said that they might have it tomorrow, but no guarantees. The room in Ohana is nice. And one elevator is broken so always a queue to get up to your room. You can buy a refill cup, that you can fill every 45 minutes, but there was always a queue and multiple times we experienced that drinks had run out or no ice… If you like regular quality food, then this is not for you. If you like good food, then Germany is not for you. So, all in all it’s an experience - not be repeated.

Tropical Islands - a place that will test if your team would survive on a deserted island. I came to Tropical Islands for two days with a group of 16 friends. I booked four tents (bookings were made simultaneously, from one account). Upon arrival, I discovered that two tents were in Zone 1, and two more in another one – about 5 minutes apart. It seemed absurd to split the group, but I decided it wasn't worth arguing about. Upon arriving at the tents, we discovered that one of our assigned tents was occupied by strangers, leaving my guests with nowhere to sleep. I spent approx. 1.5 hours at the reception desk discussing the situation, and the staff sent me from one employee to another, with no specific action. Each employee kept me waiting, without telling me how long or for what I was waiting for. The manager suggested moving one tent to Zone 1 and leaving the other four guests separately in Zone 2, or putting four people in a "house" in a completely different area from the rest of my guests. This would have meant we'd be housed in three different areas of the complex. We weren't given the option of moving all of us to the same area. The only comment from the staff was "we are overbooked, we can't do anything about it - you can write a complaint". When I asked ironicaly if I could give a one-star rating on Google Maps as compensation, the employee said yes. What I'm doing right now. After the argument, we were given a tent that leaked and was completely wet (pics attached). The staff told us, they don't have any protective foil and we had to deal with it by ourselves. When asked what kind of compensation we will receive for the inconvenience, wasted time, and ruined atmosphere, the employee said we could get 4 coctails vouchers. After commenting that there were definitely more of us and the whole group was now waiting and getting upset, the employee decided the problem was limited to one tent. Ultimately, we received 7 vouchers, which could only be used in the area outside the main water attractions. The worst customer service I've ever experienced. The entire complex advertises itself as an amusement park, although the attractions included in the ticket price are two swimming pools (one of which is a children's playground), four indoor water slides, one pool and one outdoor slide. During our stay, the outdoor water wasn't very warm. The outdoor slide didn't have enough water, and we stopped at every turn, having to push ourselves off the walls. The bar and food court, as well as most of the attractions, close at 10:00 PM – this isn't a place for adults looking to spend a pleasant evening, enjoy an exotic evening drink on the beach, dance, etc. If it weren't for the fact that I wasted a lot of time on Saturday arguing with the staff and having team-building activities planned for my guests for the evening, we would have left right after breakfast on the second day, as there was absolutely nothing to do for more than 4-5 hours. On the positive side, I came with fantastic people who organized themselves, made a great atmosphere and wanted to have fun together. Breakfast was also good. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. The Polish Suntago is definitely more attractive, better organized, and has a wider variety of attractions for everyone and stuff is more pro-client.

We arrived at 6pm and waited in line for a little over 1hr to get checked in. Check in person was friendly but overwhelmed. We had to find our way around during our stay but it’s ok because my husband and my son are very good in memorizing the way. The frustration started when we wanted to check out. They have some check out machines that many people use to check out, but many of them are stuck because the machine won’t take the payment so in the end they can’t finish the self check out. After waiting and observing the situation, we decided to do check out at the counter. The person (a beautiful lady) told us how much to pay and I reached my wallet to pay to the cents with coins. This, apparently, created frustration for the beautiful lady and she had to shake her head while looking at what I was doing. VERY UNPOLITE, but also very German! Honestly, we had a great time at tropical island and in the end she had to ruin that experience. WHYYY???? I just don’t get it. But be prepared for this kind of customer service wherever you are when in Germany!

Impressive at first glance but we wouldn't come again. The initial impression is really cool, the jungle area and overall size of the dome is nice! But afterwards, you'll notice some things: - Food and service are absolutely horrible. We waited 10 minutes to be seated at a restaurant, and there was no one in front of us and the restaurant was basically empty. - Almost all arcade games and tables in the game area are just broken. Overall, our group agreed that it was a nice one time experience and maybe really cool for a single day stay with small children, but we wouldn't go there again.

The venue itself is genuinely beautiful and well-kept. The environment is immersive, clean, and provides a pleasant tropical atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy the unique setting. Dining Disappointment: The food quality is poor. It mostly consists of low-quality frozen products sold at the price of normal, fresh meals. This is a significant drawback for a day-long visit. • Locker Trouble: The changing room situation was frustrating. Lockers for personal belongings are open and seemingly available, but are unusable, which causes inconvenience right at the start of the visit. • Service Hit-or-Miss: The staff attempts to be nice and polite, but the execution of good service is inconsistent. Their efforts are visible, but the helpfulness and efficiency vary.

On balance a great experience enjoyed by us all. Would advise an overnight stay, as facilities can be used prior both check-in and check-out. Arriving around 17:00 ~ albeit in November ~ using the QR code meant little or no delay, leaving time for the pools and water-slides prior the buffet dinner. Likewise with an early start we were able to use many of the facilities ahead of the day-trippers before a buffet breakfast. An imaginative way of using a remarkable historic building, and an interesting contrast to the autumn weather beyond! Our only criticism stems from using the regional railway service to arrive (30 mins delay) and depart (120 mins delay)... maybe the trains ran on schedule back in the day?
Colin H — Google review
It was the most horrible experience. We arrived at 11:30, none of the lockers were locked. We tried dozens of lockers. We, like many other people, had to leave our things in an open locker. Or we had to carry everything with us. We were with three small children, so carrying everything with us was not an option. The air and water inside were not warm enough, everyone was freezing, both the children and us. Very few hair dryers. Finally, when we were leaving, I accidentally noticed the extra 10, 15 and 25 euros. When I asked the cashier what it was for, he said that it was for the bracelet that closes the locker, 2.50 euros and he didn't know anything more. He sent us to the information desk and didn't want to solve the problem. The information desk showed that it was a charge for our numerous attempts to close the locker. Of course they took 50 euros from us, but we spent a lot of time arguing and our tired children barely survived the whole time. I can only imagine how many people didn't notice and just paid whatever they were charged. And for all this terrible service we paid 200 euros and an additional 100 euros for food (only for two adults and three small children under 5 years old).

Nestled in the stunning Saxon Switzerland region, Königstein Fortress stands as a remarkable testament to over 400 years of history. This impressive fortification features more than 50 distinct buildings, creating a fortified town that offers visitors an extraordinary blend of nature, architecture, and historical significance. Just a short drive from Dresden and close to the picturesque Bohemian Switzerland National Park in the Czech Republic, it’s an ideal destination for those seeking breathtaking views and enriching experiences.
Fantastic and huge fortress that you must visit.

Königstein Fortress is one of the largest hilltop fortifications in Europe, with over 800 years of history. Perched high above the Elbe River, it has never been conquered—a true testament to its impressive design and strategic location. If you’re visiting Dresden, don’t skip this experience. I booked a combo tour with the Bastei Bridge by bus, and it made for a perfect day trip. You can also reach Königstein by bus or car if you prefer going on your own. The entrance ticket to the fortress was €12 and absolutely worth it. I also joined a guided tour inside for €6, which I highly recommend—it really brought the history of the site to life. The tour was in German, but if you ask, you can get an English audio guide, which is very helpful. The entire visit was informative, scenic, and well-organized. Highly recommended for anyone interested in history, architecture, or just stunning views.

Enormous! Plan for an entire day! If you stay in the area, you get a local visitor pass for public transport. Figure out a spot along the bus 241 line and park your car there (Struppen in our case). The bus takes you to the fortress, the return trip starts one stop down the mountain. Audio tour is free on your phone, a handset can be had for €2. Do NOT get an ice cream at the small stand on the eastern perimeter.. It is a tourist trap. Get a big smooth soft ice on the main square inside the fortress for less. We spent most of an afternoon walking around the outside of the fortress and regretted not taking more time for it.

🛡 Königstein Fortress – Power, History, and Breathtaking Views If you enjoy places where nature, architecture, and history come together – this is the place for you. Königstein Fortress is impressive in scale: not just a few towers, but a whole fortified town surrounded by forests and the sandstone cliffs of Saxon Switzerland. 🔭 Postcard-worthy panoramas From the viewing platforms, you get spectacular views of the Elbe River, rolling hills, villages, and lush valleys. Perfect for photos (and soul-soothing moments). 🏰 History at every step From underground casemates to one of the oldest deep wells in Europe – the past comes alive here. Museum exhibits are thoughtfully curated: engaging for both adults and kids. 🚶‍♂️ Ideal for walking The site is large but well-organized. Plenty of signs, benches, and cafés make it easy to explore for several hours. 💡 Tip: Wear comfortable shoes and bring water. Don’t skip the viewpoints – they’re absolutely worth it. ⭐️ Rating: 5/5 One of the top historical sites in Saxony. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dresden and the surrounding area!

The Pergamonmuseum is a museum complex located on Museum Island in Berlin, comprising five historical institutions across three wings. It houses an impressive collection of ancient Roman, Greek, Babylonian, and Persian artifacts. The museum is currently undergoing extensive renovations to repair structural damage and is expected to fully reopen by 2037. However, the North Wing and central area are set to reopen in 2027.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I love this place! 🥹 It was a one-time visit but so enriching and unforgettable. Walking inside felt like traveling back in time The Ishtar Gate was absolutely breathtaking 💙 and seeing the stone with Hammurabi’s laws ⚖️ gave me chills. And then the Roman Market Gate left me speechless. The size, the details, the feeling of standing in front of such a masterpiece… it was beyond words. Everything is displayed beautifully, it feels like a smooth journey through civilizations. Honestly, it’s not just “old things,” it’s history talking to you ✨ Highly recommend it if you’re in Berlin 🙌

A must visit museum in Berlin. Museum has so much collection of historical antique items. Ishtar gate is the main attraction and it's beautiful and huge. Also the Roman market fascade is huge and it's well preserved in museum. Audio guide helps in getting the information easily about all the artifacts. Very much recommended museum in Berlin.

Not a bad place. Not too big but enough to see. Pictures attached. It has very good disability access and the staff are very friendly. You need to leave your bags in lockers and need a euro or a 2 euro coin, which is returned after you take your stuff back out. Very bright and airy. Great perspective with the life size exhibits. Worth a visit but it isn't free.
Chris W — Google review
We did no wait because we had purchased the tickets online, but for ticket sale the line was about two hours long(on a Tuesday in the middle of the day). The museum is incredibly constructed and truly remarkable! Very full indeed though. Still, worth a visit while in Berlin.

The best museum I have visited so far in Berlin! Very rich and huge group of artifacts from a wide range of Civilizations like Ancient Civilizations, Greek and Roman, Islamic… I booked the tickets online and entered with no wait time, there are Audi devices in several languages as well.

One of the most interesting museums I have ever been to. Would surely recommend to anyone who likes history. Alot to learn and much beauty to admire. It took us about 3 hours without rushing and we were able to walk through all the exhibits. TIP: Make sure to carry an A4 size bag if you would like to carry some water or any thing else inside with you. There is a coat check area and lockers for bigger bags. You just need 1-2 Euro to access them which you can get back at the end of your tour. Enjoy!

Topography of Terror

Mentioned on 
+74 other lists 
History museum
Museums
The Topography of Terror, also known as the Museum of the Gestapo, is a modern center located on the former site of the Gestapo headquarters. It documents the horrors of Nazism and provides visitors with a comprehensive understanding of the SS and police operations during World War II. The main exhibit showcases documents, photographs, audio, and film to highlight the crimes committed during this dark period in history.
A learning experience, it takes you through history chronologically, which is very interesting. We had a guide beforehand that had given us lots of stories of escape attempts and interesting facts which nicely framed the visit. Certainly woth a visit and quite mind blowing how relatively recent this was still the status Quo
Tom B — Google review
A totally shocking museum of the horrors of the Nazi regime. It is an extensive documentation of the brutal treatment of certain sections of society that did not fit in with the party's ideals. An outside display covers the pre-war to post-war eras and inside the museum large displays are enhanced by information boards covering aspects of the subject in more detail. A must visit museum if you are in Berlin. Can be busy with school groups. Free entrance.
Ivor C — Google review
The Topography of Terror is a powerful and very moving place to visit. The exhibition is well-presented, informative and deeply thought-provoking, showing the darkest part of German’s history. A must-see for anyone wanting to understand the city beyond its landmarks. This exhibition proves that Berlin doesn’t hide history, they learn from it.
Michał — Google review
Excellent. Since I last visited, they have added an indoor exhibition which is very good. It's also free and we thought it was better than the Checkpoint Charlie museum that we paid €18 to visit.
Alison L — Google review
The Topography of Terror is an absolutely incredible and essential place to visit in Berlin. It was truly one of the best experiences I had, especially when listening to the audio guide—it brings the whole site to life. It's incredibly powerful and thought-provoking. I highly recommend it!
Danny S — Google review
Interesting photo gallery with detailed information about WW ll and the Berlin wall. Mixture of German and foreign visitors. Entrance is free, but be aware that this is an open air historical place.
Aslan V — Google review
If you’re interested in history, especially the events surrounding World War II and the Nazi regime, the Topography of Terror is a must-visit in Berlin. Located on the site where the SS and Gestapo headquarters once stood, this open-air and indoor museum offers a powerful and sobering look into one of the darkest chapters in human history. Through photographs, documents, and audio-visual materials, the exhibition presents a detailed account of how the Nazi regime used terror to control and persecute. The outdoor section also preserves part of the Berlin Wall, adding to the historical depth of the site. Admission is free, and it’s very well-organized, with information available in both German and English. It’s a moving experience that encourages reflection and understanding — not just of Germany’s past, but of the importance of human rights and democratic values today.

Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe

Mentioned on 
+70 other lists 
Memorial
Sights & Landmarks
The memorial is located in Berlin, Germany, and is dedicated to the thousands of Jewish victims of the Nazi genocide. The blocks of concrete are arranged in a mazelike fashion and are said to represent the unending cycle of violence inflicted on the Jews. The information office below the memorial holds records, letters, diaries, and photographs from Holocaust victims.
Walking through the rows of concrete blocks creates a strange and unsettling feeling that stays with you. It’s a space that invites silence and reflection. There are no signs or explanations in the field itself, which makes the experience even more personal. I also recommend visiting the underground information center to better understand the history. A must-see for anyone who wants to connect with the past in a meaningful way.
Federico D — Google review
Its an interesting monument but I found that having very little information available or from the tour guide a bit average. Nobody knows the designers' reasons for the layout, etc, and it's left to your imagination. I didn't find it a moving monument like others and didn't feel it really captured the gravity of the situation or really provided a strong memorial for thise lost unfortunately, but thats just my view. It seemed to just be a bunch of concrete blocks and I feel so much more could have been done
Tom B — Google review
This site is a memorial dedicated to the six million Jewish men, women, and children who were murdered during World War II. Visitors are asked to maintain a respectful attitude while on the grounds. For some, this is a powerful reminder of history; for others, it’s a deeply personal place to remember and honor loved ones.
Stephen A — Google review
A truly wonderful free museum lies beneath these memorial stones. We had a very thought provoking and deeply interesting 90 minutes in this museum. It's beautifully put together and you need to take the time to observe and absorb all the information on show. It's time well spent.
Richard H — Google review
★★★★★ The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe hits hard. Its 2,711 stark concrete slabs, sprawling yet suffocating, force you to feel the weight of history. Designed by Peter Eisenman, opened in 2005, it’s a gut-punch tribute to the Holocaust’s victims. Wander the uneven paths—silence creeps in. Respectful yet raw, it’s unmissable. Visit at dusk for haunting vibes.

Brandenburg Gate

Mentioned on 
+187 other lists 
Historical place
Sights & Landmarks
The Brandenburg Gate is an 18th-century landmark in Berlin, featuring 12 Doric columns topped by a classical goddess statue. It holds great historical significance as a symbol of German reunification and was once off-limits to both West and East Germans during the Cold War era.
It's the most iconic landmark of Berlin and probably the whole of Germany. A great place to stand and think about all the history that has taken place there, and as such it's a popular and lively place to be, especially in the evenings. I visited twice, once in the evening (lady singing protest songs, guys making bubbles for little people to pop, loads of families out and people taking photos) and once at 7am on Sunday morning (I was literally the only person there as the sun was rising); you choose which vibe suits you best!
Jim K — Google review
An absolutely iconic landmark standing here feels like stepping right into history! 🇩🇪 The architecture is breathtaking, especially at sunset when the lights make it glow beautifully. The atmosphere around the gate is lively yet peaceful, with street performers, photographers, and tourists from all over the world. It’s not just a monument it’s a symbol of unity and freedom. Perfect place for amazing photos, evening walks, and soaking in Berlin’s rich culture. Definitely a must-visit in Germany! ✨
Supreme B — Google review
A symbol of German unity and European peace, this site is an essential visit when in Berlin. It serves as a profound reminder of historical events. During our visit, the area was not overly crowded, which was quite pleasant. The sunlight illuminating the monument created a truly beautiful spectacle. The location is readily accessible via any mode of transportation.

Berlin is a unique city where past and future meet. The Museum Island is extraordinary, and walking along the Berlin Wall remains moving. The city is lively, multicultural, full of art and nightlife. Great international food and convenient transport to get around everywhere.

Visited September 2025. This was my first stop after arriving in Berlin. It is a real cool Roman style gate. The details in the design are elegant. This is a good starting point for traveling around the area to see a large number of historical attractions.
Josh H — Google review
It’s a must see in Berlin as it forms the backdrop to so much of Berlin’s history. We arrived just after 9 on a Monday morning before the crowds arrive, but even at 4 in the afternoon there was no problem moving through the area. The U-Bahn has a stop in Unter den Linden within 100 metres of the gate, and the road is generally closed to traffic. There are good interpretive signs about the various architectural and decorative aspects of the structure. The Berlin Wall line lies just to the east of the Gate and can be followed throughout the city. There are a number of eateries in close proximity, from street food to restaurants, as well as other historical locations.

Reichstag Building

Mentioned on 
+123 other lists 
Government office
Sights & Landmarks
The Reichstag Building, a Neo-Renaissance parliament structure, boasts a striking Norman Foster-designed glass dome offering panoramic views of Berlin's government district. Despite enduring damage from fires and air raids in the 20th century, the building has been meticulously restored. Visitors can explore its historical significance, including Soviet graffiti from the Battle of Berlin.
If you do one thing In Berlin, it should definitely be this place! The views are incredible and the architecture of the dome is amazing. I am afraid of heights and I certainly didn’t expect to love it so much, not even a wobble! It strangely feels so safe. Incredible! It’s free to visit but Make sure you book on their website to visit the earlier the better! As we did and you should hear back very quickly. There is security to go through and the lift to the top is not all glass.
S G — Google review
An amazing building to visit when in Berlin. Tickets must be booked well in advance. We booked for breakfast which was delicious with excellent views of Berlin. You cannot get in the restaurant unless you have booked . We were so glad we did . We arrived before our allotted time as it takes time to go through security. Once in you are free to explore the Norman Foster glass dome with 360 degree views of Berlin. It is an impressive structure to top such an iconic building. A real mix of modern and classical architecture with so much history
Christine A — Google review
One of the most famous tourist attractions in Berlin. You need to book online before visiting the building and the dome. Interesting historical building with a modern glass dome. The architecture is impressive, but the visit feels a bit overrated. Long waiting times and security checks make the experience less enjoyable. The view from the dome is nice, but not as spectacular as expected.
Yusuf E — Google review
One of the best things I did whilst in Berlin. From the famous dome you can see across Berlin, allowing you to see uninterrupted sights of the cities best and most famous locations. When you reach the top floor, make sure to pick up a pamphlet on your left. This will show the whole panoramic view from the top of the dome. It points out major sights, including some of the prettiest buildings I’ve ever seen. Once you reach the top, the open air dome with seats around the centre allow you to sit or lay back and relax. For our mad touristy day this made a nice break. I could sit here for hours. I’m confused why it isn’t busy as it was a spectacle every tourist needs to see! Security is tight as this is the main government building in Germany. Many high profile politicians and government officials come here daily. Make sure to bring some IDENTIFICATION if you don’t you will be refused entry! Bags are also searched. One of my favourite parts of my trip! Would recommend to everyone.
R. G — Google review
The sheer size of the structure is simply enormous. When I first saw it, I couldn’t believe my eyes. It’s a marvel to witness how they managed to construct an entire structure and place a modern dome on top. The entrance to the building is well-organized and heavily guarded, which is completely justified. As you ascend to the dome, you can explore the surrounding areas. It’s an incredible experience to walk up the slope of the dome to reach the top. At the base of the dome, you can learn about the building’s history and how the German government has evolved over time. The views are breathtaking, so I highly recommend hiring you to recommend this place to everyone. You will need to make sure to make arrangements ahead of time to visit this place. Ticket is a must and needs to be planned in advance.
Anand — Google review
I first went to the front lawn of the Reichstag and then rode around the Spree to catch a glimpse from across the river. It looked majestic from every direction. Standing there gave me a perspective — life can be cruel, but these monuments have witnessed history, stood the test of time, and still remain strong.
Pushkar — Google review
The Reichstag is well worth visiting, especially for the glass dome with its panoramic views of Berlin. Entry is free, but advance online registration is required, and security is strict, so plan some extra time. The visit is well-organized and informative, with a good balance of sightseeing and learning about the German parliament.
Hasham Q — Google review
It’s a beautiful building and it’s free to get inside. There are so people waiting to get inside and too much control. Also, I was waiting a more impressive view, but finally it was ok. It’s a great place to take some pictures.

Sachsenhausen Memorial & Museum

Mentioned on 
6 lists 
Museum
Sights & Landmarks
The Memorial and Museum Sachsenhausen is a powerful site that serves as a reminder of the atrocities committed during the Nazi regime. Visitors can explore the camp at their own pace, with guided tours available for deeper insight. The museum houses numerous artifacts, descriptions, and first-hand accounts that shed light on the horrors that took place there. Audio guides are recommended for a more comprehensive experience. While some parts of the camp have deteriorated over time, the sheer scale of the site is awe-inspiring.
One of the best I have been to. With the audio guide and information boards you can really get a feel of what was happening here over the 30 to 60 time period
Paul A — Google review
It was very informative with a cheap audio guide (roughly €3. 50). Entry is free. It's not very easy to find your way there if you're using public transport. Google Maps took us in via an office complex and police headquarters (the old SS training camp, I believe). It's got a lot of information in the different rooms with a lot of reading, although plenty of different languages are catered for. A lot of the main areas to visit have been restored or rebuilt and it's hard to gauge the conditions of the time. It does seem to be a work in progress to restore everything and add extra sections. Some of the interactive exhibits didn't seem to work which would be troublesome for those who needed audio guidance. The computers we were using at one point just all turned off. I would recommend it but it needs a full day and plenty of energy for all of the walking and some stamina for the reading. I think they offer guided tours but I'm not certain.

The exhibitions, preserved buildings, and memorials are powerful and respectful. A must-visit for anyone seeking to understand this history.
Marika ( — Google review
Ok visit, but not that many original details still there which makes it more difficult to grasp the extent of the horror, especially for our teens. I don't want to say it's necessary to have the horrific details around, but to me it does bring a tangible message across for next generations, to make sure it never happens again.

Sanssouci Park, located east of the city center in Potsdam, is a renowned attraction known for its formal gardens and historical buildings. Built as a summer palace by Prussian King Frederick the Great, it rivals Versailles with its intimate Rococo style and numerous temples and follies in the surrounding park.
A really good trip out around the local area and then to the palace. Its small but impeccably designed with a lot of fine detail. As this was more of a retreat for the king its less grand in scale than other palaces but I really enjoyed visiting it and learning the history.

The castle was majestic and there were just the right number of people on a weekend. There was no queue to get the tickets on the day we went and we also managed to get a guided English tour. While we waited for the tour, we walked to the restaurant (called the Orangerie) which was in a very picturesque courtyard with a sea view. Our tour guide was very informative and gave us a lot of interesting facts and insight into the life of royalty during that Era. Not all the rooms were open for public viewing, as many were being used for the regional parliament. But the ones that were open, were really beautiful and were maintained very well. Definitely worth a visit!

Beautiful Castle! However quite a lot of people there. The Tour is great and you can also borrow a chair so you can sit at all times. The Corridors are sometimes very narrow and some Tour guides are speaking rather quietly (for me personally was it not too bad, however for some people [especially older] was it a problem) so you can’t stand too far away from them. Overall a great place!!!

Absolutely stunning on the outside... Self-guided tour... which is definitely handy when visiting with children. Although I was slightly disappointed by how limited the tour proved to be, in comparison with the size of the castle itself. There are also lifts and I noticed a wheelchair lift at a small staircase towards the end of our tour, so I suspect it has good or at least decent accessibility, as well. Place is fairly busy in general... so, crowded, but because it's a big place, it didn't feel overcrowded.

Visiting Schwerin Castle felt like stepping straight into a fairytale. Surrounded by a shimmering lake and beautifully kept gardens, the castle looks magical from every angle. The architecture is breathtaking, with its golden domes and towers rising proudly above the water. Definitely a must-see if you’re in northern Germany – whether for the history, the scenery, or simply the fairytale charm. 🏰

Specialty Museums
Autostadt in Wolfsburg is a must-visit destination for car enthusiasts and families alike. This automobile museum offers a fascinating display of the history of Volkswagen, featuring an impressive collection of vintage cars alongside new vehicle parking towers. Visitors can also enjoy driving tracks, shops, and restaurants within the park. Additionally, Autostadt provides a unique experience for families with designated play areas and activities for kids.
There’s a lot to see here, and it’s not boring at all. It’s perfect for families, car enthusiasts, and kids. You can see history and modern cars, including Bugatti, Porsche, VW, and Audi. There are also fun play structures for kids, places to climb, huge slides, hoops, and more. And the food was great - we had some delicious pizzas and even got some souvenirs. The only downside is that the Porsche museum was closed because of a concert, and I’m a big Porsche fan, so I give it 4 stars. Objectively though 5 stars.

If you are into cars and the automotive industry then this place is for you, it has a good playground for the little ones and for food you have restaurants and a bakery.

If it is your first time you will love it. The car museum is so nice If it is your second time it is the same. I have been here in 2018 and only things that changed were the sliders for the kids/adukts near the 4 chimney and of course there are new car models but... not so much change. You pay 20€ to see the cars and touch the production ones like in a regular car store.

I found the staff to be amiable and courteous, and the environment to be organized, systematic, and well-maintained. I thought the ticket price was a bit high for what it had to offer, as I usually visit much bigger museums for that price. But this opinion comes from someone who doesn't know much about cars. If you know a lot about cars and are passionate about them, this will be your paradise. It is close to Hanover and a great place to spend a day with the kids.

Visiting the Autostadt in Wolfsburg was such a great experience! The whole place is beautifully designed, clean, and very well organized. From the impressive car pavilions to the museum and the factory view, everything showcases the history and future of Volkswagen in a fun and interactive way. I especially enjoyed the variety of exhibitions and how much attention to detail there is throughout the park. Definitely worth visiting if you’re a car enthusiast or just want a unique cultural experience in Germany!

Miniatur Wunderland

Museum
Sights & Landmarks
Miniatur Wunderland is a must-visit attraction in Hamburg, featuring the world's largest model train exhibit. The miniature recreations of famous global sites such as Hamburg, Austria, and Scandinavia are incredibly detailed, with animated elements like planes taking off and lights simulating sunset and sunrise. It's a popular tourist spot for visitors of all ages, offering guided tours through its intricate landscapes and bustling cities.
Absolutely amazing experience. One can spend hours here. Of course Kids gonna love it but I I found mostly adults on that day cherishing entire replica of famous cities with excruciating details as a miniature world. One can see and admire all that work gone into planning an execution of this world over the years. One of its kind experience not to be missed. The entry ticket is 20 euros but definitely worth it.

Wonderful experience, details are incredible, as well as the perfect scaling and diversity of scenes presented. 100% positive memory. Being an adult doesn’t mean itself not for you! Maybe ever better than being a kid. The day/night alternation gives it a magical touch. WOW

Wooooow! Amazing place with a unique experience that lets you walk through different parts of the globe. I loved how much attention to detail was put into everything, and the design often includes funny little scenarios—like taking a bath with a penguin or the sheep pyramid! It’s incredibly creative, yet the landscapes still feel realistic. The night and day versions of the cities are a very cool twist. Also, all the robotics and technology behind the functioning train system—without any crashes—is mind-blowing. I especially enjoyed getting a behind-the-scenes look at the newest addition. One thing to note: it’s a huge place to explore, so plan your visit accordingly to give yourself enough time to enjoy it without rushing from room to room. It can also get quite busy, so be patient and dedicate a full day if possible. There’s a café and food area if you want to take a break during your visit. Definitely recommend it! I’d love to come back and get even more lost in the details.

Absolutely one of the best attractions in Hamburg — and honestly, one of the most impressive exhibits I’ve ever seen. Miniatur Wunderland is massive and filled with astonishing detail. Most Germanic (Germany, Austria, and Switzerland) countries and regions have their own area, complete with moving trains, planes, ships, lights, and tiny human stories happening everywhere you look. You could easily spend 3–4 hours here and still not catch everything. It’s not just for model train fans — it’s for anyone who appreciates creativity, craftsmanship, and a bit of magic. The nighttime lighting effects, airports, and little surprises hidden throughout make it incredibly fun for both kids and adults. It can get crowded, so I recommend booking a time slot early in the morning or later in the evening if you can. There’s a café inside with good snacks and drinks for a quick break between sections. Truly a must-see — whether you’re visiting Hamburg for a day or a week, Miniatur Wunderland is worth every minute.
Micah R — Google review
Fantastic venue. Everything feels grounded and made by people who know what visitors will want to have or need. The exhibition itself is spectacular. Lots of details and stories are told ... Sometimes very hidden. Food is fine. Okay price. Reminded me of IKEA. There could be more washrooms. Also, the regular ticket isn't valid for reentry. That's a bit of a bummer since opening hours are until 1am.
Robert K — Google review
Wanted to see this for years and now I've ticked it iff my bucket list! This is hands down the BEST minature railway and car layout you'll ever see! So much to see, you can easily spend all day here! Don't bring the missus, that will only reduce your fun! Definitely get tickets in advance, they sell out quick!

Its easy to see why this is fast becoming the top attraction in Hamburg. Its so much fun and that's consistent with everyone whonis wondering about around you. So much detail that ypu definitely need a visit to the bistro to allow your eyes and brain to catch up. Fantastic day out for everyone. Go. You will be talking about it for a while to come.

As a model railway enthusiast, I have been looking forward to coming to Hamburg to visit Miniatur Wunderland and the truth is that it worth it! I was delighted with the visit and I want to congratulate the whole team for all the impressive work that goes into every part of the model! The technique, the operation, the quality of the details, I love everything in general, especially the airport!! I also really enjoyed being able to eat in the Miniatur Wunderland restaurant. I am sure that in the future I will definitely visit this wonderful place again!

I had a fantastic experience walking through the Old Elbtunnel! It only takes about 10 minutes to walk from one side to the other, and the views when you reach the other side are really cool. The tunnel itself has a unique charm. Best of all, it's completely free! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Hamburg.
LISA — Google review
Variety and overcrowd in such a narrow tunnel, and amazingly remained order. We took ship tour instead of strolling along the pier. Thereby we could have an overall idea about the harbor area and came with some great buildings to appreciate. For instance, Elbphilharmonie ! 🙂
Angela M — Google review
Beautiful spot next to the South entrance of the Alter Elb Tunnel, and perfect if you want a panoramic view to the Hamburg waterfront on the North Side. If you’re up for it, you can also go and see the other photo spot next to the “Stage Theater An Der Elbe”, 20 minutes on foot. That will bring you closer to the Elbphilharmonie building.
Per S — Google review
One of the best hidden gems in Hamburg! You can walk here through the historic Elbtunnel or take a short ferry ride from Landungsbrücken. Once there, you get an amazing panoramic view of the harbor, the Elbphilharmonie, and the city skyline. Perfect spot for a quiet break, photos, or just watching ships go by. It’s peaceful and not too touristy. Highly recommend if you’re exploring the harbor area!
Alessia — Google review
Easy to get here via the Elbtunnel (absolutely worth a visit) or a short ferry ride (included in the hvv day ticket). The view is really cool but partially obstructed. It would be ideal if the observation platform could be elevated and widened a bit. Otherwise an amazing view of the Hamburg skyline.

The best place to the get the most amazing view and experience of the Old Elbe Tunnel. German technology at its beautiful best since 1911. Free entry. Great concept for walking and cycling incorporated.
Writing R — Google review
Or was a unique experience walking 450meters under the sea level in the tunnel originally constructed in 1911😍. Going up and down in such huge lifts is cool😇. The view of the port on Elbe on the other side of the tunnel is just wow. 😘
Bhavya L — Google review
It was very impressive walking through the tunnel and ending up on the side to the viewpoint and seeing the seaport from the other side. It's a must-see when you visit Hamburg.

The Port of Hamburg, the largest container port in Germany and one of the world's biggest, is strategically located on the river Elbe. It serves as a crucial link between Eastern and Central Europe, offering safe docking for various vessels including containerships, oil tankers, and cruise ships. A visit to Hamburg would be incomplete without exploring this bustling harbor area or taking a boat tour to get an up-close view of its operations.
I took a boat tour of the Port of Hamburg and it was a fascinating experience. I saw giant cargo ships, observed the loading and unloading operations. Overall, I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in seeing the Port of Hamburg up close.

there was a festival at the day I arrived, so it was really crowded, full of people everywhere, but after that it was so peaceful there, the air was fresh and the water was clean, it was just so nice to sit there and enjoy the sunshine, both day and night views were so beautiful!! Hamburg is definitely one of my favorite places in Europe!
Zora — Google review
The port is just huge! We took a tour on a boat for 20€ in order to admire the majesty of the cranes and the huge ships parked on the deck being loaded by containers. There are so many things to see but you need a guide to get the full experience

Seeing water flow around is satisfying and very beautiful, Hamburg was such a good experience. Go to the elbphilharmonie and watch the beautiful view of the port of Hamburg and entrance is free, if you have kids you can use the lift, if you boat trip at night is a bonus and costs around 20€, then a bus trip during the day also costed around 18€ for 2 hours and I must say everything was worth it

One of the most beautiful poet I have ever been. Its is so lively, you can see tons of containers, cruise ships. If you are going to Germany, make sure to add hamburg harbour in your to do list and also, have a cruise tour. Its really worth trying.

One of the favorite places for a sunday stroll. Plenty things to see. Make sure to catch the ferry 62 for a round trip on the river allowing you to see things from different perspective. Moreover there are plenty of places to eat a nice "Fischbrötchen"!

Heide Park Resort

Amusement park
Water & Amusement Parks
Theme Parks
Heide Park Resort is the largest theme park in northern Germany, covering a massive 850,000m2 area with thrilling rides suitable for the whole family. From adrenaline-pumping roller coasters like Krake and Colossus to family-friendly attractions such as Wildwasserbahn and Indie-blitz, there's something for everyone. The park has reopened after the pandemic with safety measures in place, making it a fantastic experience for all ages.
It's a great entertainment center. It's in the middle of the forest, far from the city center. It's between Hamburg and Bremen. It's a 20-minute walk from Wolterdingen train station. It has a nice theme hotel inside. The hotel food is average, a little below average, but still not bad. The amusement park also has food options, which are below average. The entertainment starts at 10 a.m. and ends at 6 p.m. for everyone. Hotel guests can enter half an hour early but can only queue. The attractions also start at 10 p.m. Wait times are on average 20-30 minutes. Wait times for ages 8 and under are shorter, around 5 minutes. If you're quick, you can visit and enjoy one attraction in one day. If you take it slow, it even takes two days. It's a must-see for anyone with children aged 12-29. The park design, roller coasters, and themes are all excellent. It would be great if they upgraded the food service as well.

Huge adventure park not too far away from Berlin. Went here with our little one and there are already ample rides for his age. Parents traveling with toddlers will still have lots of options for attractions. The Peppa Pig Land offers several choices. One doesn’t have to like Peppa Pig to enjoy the rides. I would also recommend the Food Stop inside Peppa Pig Land offering Rice Bowls etc. The staff are very friendly and food tasted delicious. We visited on a weekday so waiting times weren’t that long. But I have seen long queues in the coasters. Using the app, it was easier to navigate how to get to a specific attraction. It also shows age/height requirements, waiting times, etc. The coaster rides are very famous and there are different types on different levels so there is an option for everyone for sure. I would advise to bring your water bottle and rain coat/rain jacket atop your extra clothes. Several Food stalls are available. Book your tickets ahead online to get discounts. If ever not yet known, fyi, children celebrating their birthday get to enter for free.

I haven't been here in years. We arrived right when it opened and stayed until closing time. I was looking forward to coming here, and I was not disappointed. We had such a great time! The weather was mixed, which was good, as it meant that the crowds were not that large and the wait times were reduced. I went on every rollercoaster, and some even several times. The food was pretty good, too. I bought a few souvenirs and I must say the prices are really not that bad compared to other theme parks I have been to. I was still smiling the next day! I highly recommend a visit! I can't wait to come back! Next time, we'll stay the night.
Terence H — Google review
Great experience. Great day to be here. Not too many people as school has started and summer holidays are mostly over. Wait time was between 10 and 60 minutes. Only note is that some queues were not covered which meant in sunny weather it could get quite hot. The thrill roller-coasters were amazing. The only roller-coaster I would NOT recommend is the double-loop one. Headache machine.

It is a great place to spend with the family. We visited the amusement park in the middle of the week. It was great to see it is not crowed and waiting times were between 10 to max 30min for the main attractions. It makes it really enjoyable not like other parks with super long waiting time and too many people that you hardly can breath. The restaurants inside offer various dishes and the quality was good, a bit pricey though which is normal in such a park. The only thing, some of the staff or instructor at some attractions were not really friendly. They might forgot where they work. The access to the park by car from Hamburg less than an hour was very fine. The parking space very well available. The access by public transport is a bit long though. It is a recommended place to visit. There are entertainment available for almost all ages.

It was a really quiet day when we were there so easy to get on any ride we wanted. Everything seemed in good working order although it needed a bit of freshening up after the summer season (we were there in late September). The were still plenty of options for eating and things were reasonably priced (for a theme park!). The ride staff were great and interacted with our children well (our children don’t speak German). Because it was quieter, they allowed us and others to just keep riding those rides without a line. A good day and a good experience. The only problem we had was getting into the correct carpark!
Benjamin H — Google review
Visited Heide Park and had a fantastic day filled with fun and adrenaline. The park has a great mix of rides for all ages — from high-speed roller coasters for thrill-seekers to gentler attractions for families and younger children. The grounds are well laid out and easy to navigate, with plenty of seating areas and spots to take a break. Queues for the bigger rides can be long at peak times, but the atmosphere and excitement make the wait worthwhile. Food options are varied, with something to suit most tastes, though prices are on the higher side as expected in theme parks. Staff were friendly and kept the rides running smoothly and safely. Overall, Heide Park is a must-visit for theme park lovers in Germany. A great mix of thrills, family fun, and beautiful surroundings make it perfect for a full day out.

We came from far away especially for this park, as we had promised our little daughter. We had been here before, and she really enjoyed it and wanted to return. We entered the park, and immediately a heavy downpour began. We went into the shop at the entrance and waited for an hour. The rain didn’t stop. We approached customer service and asked to postpone our tickets to the following day — our request was denied. We waited another hour and tried, for our daughter’s sake, to continue through the park. We were soaked to the bone, and all the rides were closed. There was absolutely no way to fulfill our promise to her. Apart from walking around in the rain, there was nothing to do! I contacted customer service by email, hoping they would show some flexibility and let us enter on another day. But no — that's their policy, with no exceptions. After about two hours, with no sign of the rain stopping, we simply left. The disappointment for our daughter — and for us — was indescribable. It’s truly a shame that this is how children are treated. We, the parents, pay full admission just so the kids can have fun, and the park didn’t even take this small step to accommodate us by allowing a replacement visit. What a pity!

Erlebnis-Zoo Hannover is a spectacular animal park in Germany, attracting over a million visitors annually. The zoo features more than 2,000 residents from 5 continents, housed in unique and carefully designed habitats such as the Sambesi river ride, Indian jungle palace, Gorilla Mountain, Meyers Hof farmyard, Mullewapp children's paradise by Helme Heine and the Canadian landscape Yukon Bay.
Visiting from Canada and brought my 3 kids here aged 3 to 7. The whole family had an amazing time. Well thought out exhibits, loved seeing so many different animals up close and personal. Will always remember our visit to this zoo. Should have gotten tickets online sooner as they were cheaper, and can attend for free on your birthday!

Pretty good. But seeing someone smoking in the kids playground was shocking to me. Really good work with the themed atmosphere and building structures. Animals hiding in the shade but most still visible.
Arunas B — Google review
My first time here and I absolutely loved it. I honestly didn’t expect much from a zoo in Germany, but this one went far beyond my expectations. It feels more like an amusement park somehow! The boat ride is my favorite part, since some of the animals can be seen better from the boat. And don’t miss the zoo shop. They have so many cute merch items. Definitely one of the best zoos I’ve ever been to.
Noey T — Google review
All the animals looked so happy! The enclosures are just so amazing! Really good job making them themed after the area you’d find the animals in the wild, which just made it look so natural and made it look so that the animals were at home! Not seen anything like this before! The entry fee is at the higher end but it’s so worth it! Loved all of it!

15 out of 10 for theming, one of my favorite in the world! Beautiful areas and though they’re building new areas, spaces are original, more like a theme park and according to the animals. Loved the Yukon! Easy to navigate but plenty of signage, maps and ways to find your way. Worth a visit!
