THREE TRIPS FROM TRIER GERMANY.

Charming Saarburg, Cochem and Rudesheim.

I stayed in Trier Germany for four nights ,using it as a base for trips out. The train is great for getting around,.
The DB regional train pass is good value, valid after 9am for all day. It can be used as often as you like in the day.I believe there is a bargain for family ticket. These were three trips out. I did blog on Trier in an earlier blog.RUDESHEIM  GERMANY.
