Hamburg tourist attractions in the city center can easily be reached by using the metro, taxis or the bus, but further afield tourists will find the coastal resorts along the North and Baltic Sea are better explored by car. An area of outstanding natural beauty, the Altes Land (Old Country) is a wildlife haven with verdant green fields, only interrupted by orchards containing thousands of blooming apple, cherry and plum trees.

The Baltic Sea coast with its fishing villages and exclusive seaside resorts of Travemünde and Timmendorfer Strand are just an hour’s drive away. The ancient city of Lübeck, a UNESCO world heritage site, is a mere 45 minute drive away. Parts of the medieval city walls are still standing, including one of the original gates and turrets.

With a rental from Dollar tourists can enjoy the flexibility that self drive provides. During the off peak season hotels and guesthouses offer amazing deals, particularly Wellness related short breaks with spa, beauty treatments, massage, swimming pools and fine dining thrown in.

In Hamburg City there is so much to see that visitors will appreciate the comfort of a car. Hamburg’s Zoo, one of the oldest zoos in the world, is worth a whole day’s visit alone. The city’s Central Park (Stadtpark) offers the chance to catch music performances or to see a theater play being staged in gorgeous parkland surroundings. Many nightclubs, bars, pubs and even restaurants in Hamburg provide live music entertainment. No wonder John Lennon claimed The Beatles grew up in Hamburg!
