Day trips from Berlin: 3 epic adventures
Some day trips repay the early train. Plenty don't. These 3 day trips from Berlin are the ones that earn the hours, and each comes with an honest note on what you're really getting.
Book a TripSachsenhausen Memorial★ 4.4Half a day at the concentration camp north of the city, with a guide, because the site is large and almost nothing on it explains itself. Directions
Book a TripDresden & Saxon Switzerland★ 4.7A full day south: the rebuilt baroque centre of Dresden, then the sandstone towers of Saxon Switzerland and the Bastei bridge above the Elbe. Directions
Book a TripTropical Islands★ 4.5A rainforest and a beach inside the largest free-standing hall in the world, an hour south of Berlin in an old airship hangar. DirectionsSome booking links earn us a small commission. It does not change the price the partner charges you.
