Driving Etiquette and Rules

• Unlike the UK, you'll be driving on the right side of the road in Germany. This difference in driving side may take a bit of getting used to.
• Seat belts must be worn at all times, and the use of a mobile phone while driving is prohibited unless it's hands-free.
• Unlike the UK, there is no national speed limit on German autobahns, but the advised speed limit is 130 km/h.

Starting from historical treasures like the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Town Hall and the statue of the famed Town Musicians of Bremen, to futuristic technological marvels like the Universum Science Center, Bremen is a captivating mix of old and new worlds. Don't forget to visit the quaint Schnoor Quarter, Bremen’s oldest district with tiny houses all lined up neatly.

Seasonal Events

Experience Bremen in its full swing during festivals like Freimarkt in October with funfair fun, or the charming Christmas market in December. And for wine lovers, the annual wine festival in August is a must-visit, where you can sample some of Germany’s finest wines.

Money matters

Germany uses the Euro (€) as its official currency, unlike the UK’s pound sterling (£). Credit cards are widely accepted in Germany, but cash is king here, especially in smaller shops or eating places, so ensure you have some cash on hand.

Choosing the Right Car for Bremen

Depending on your itinerary, you can select from a range of vehicles. For city tours and short distances, economy or compact cars would be suitable due to their small size and efficiency. If you're planning for longer road trips or more comfort, sedans and SUVs would be your go-to option.
