Summer in Berlin 2021 for the best travel destinations in June and beyond

Be sure to visit Berlin, where you will see symbolic monuments like the Brandenburg Gate, the Berlin Wall, and the Reichstag, and explore the range of local and international dining options. Berlin is a reformed city, home to those who don’t wish to conform, with a hint of rebellion. Open-minded and non-judgemental ‘vibes sprawl throughout the city, from graffiti to cuisine, so prepare yourself for an exciting mix of cultures during your summer in Berlin.

World-renowned Indian, Vietnamese, Asian, South American, and Italian restaurants (and food trucks!) may have you questioning if a traditional German meal is really what you would like to try first. Non-conformist Berlin will not limit itself to “nightlife.” Discos and club hours span longer than you would think, some open 24 hours, appealing to all walks of life. Once all entertainment needs are met (or wildly exceeded), give into your desire for a more tranquil atmosphere. One of our favorite places to escape is this luxury Berlin tree house located just outside of the city center.

Enjoy an authentic Hamburg summer in 2021

After your urban adventures, make your way to northern Germany to discover scenic rivers, green parks, and picturesque towns.

Visit the port city of Hamburg and the coastal city of Bremerhaven, and take a boat tour to cruise along the Wadden Sea. Although the area is not best known for its beaches, your Hamburg summer vacation will not be complete without visiting the endless coastlines in the area.
