I visited Bonn and Cologne, Germany last October and it was one of the best times of year to visit Central Europe. The weather was cool and comfortable, festivals were taking place and a train ride along the Rhine was one of the best ways to view some of Germany’s castles and vineyards.

While Western Europe gets most of the attention from travelers, Central Europe shouldn’t be forgotten when planning a trip. Fall brings cooler temperatures and fewer crowds, while winter offers a picturesque and snowy landscape.
The only thing that would make your vacation sweeter than a German Riesling is $100 off the package price. Travelocity is currently running a promotion offering $100 off a 5-night package to several Central European destinations.
The details: Book a package by Oct. 21 and enter promo code GOEUROPE and $100 will automatically be deducted from your final total. Note: The package must total a minimum of $1,500 to be eligible. Travelocity lists a variety of hotels to choose from including Park Plaza Prenzlauer Berg in Germany, NH Salzburg and Sofitel Victoria Warsaw.
