  • Driving in Germany can take some adjustment if it's your first time. Keep in mind you'll need to stay on the right side of the road.

  • In Germany, the legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.05%. If you intend to have a few drinks, pass the keys to someone else or choose another way to travel.

  • Try to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother run. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • The euro (EUR) is the currency you'll be using for everyday expenses and activities. Pay with a card when it's possible, and keep some cash handy when electronic payments aren't an option.
