End your sightseeing tour with lunch in a typical apple wine pub. Enjoy some delicious apple wine in one of the numerous rustically decorated pubs and enjoy typical regional dishes such as Handkäse ( typical cheese from the region) or Frankfurter Grüne Sosse ( specialty of Frankfurt: Sauce with 7 different herbs and sour cream served with boiled potatoes and e.g. eggs).
But Frankfurt is also a perfect starting point for great excursions. Visit romantic Heidelberg with the beautiful castle (partially in ruins) towering above the picturesque medieval town center. An excursion to the Rhine Valley starting from Frankfurt is also an absolute must. Admire the beautiful landscape, the charming little vineyards, and the mighty medieval castles during a boat trip on a Rhine steamer and end the day with a wine tasting in a little tavern.
