Day 02 - Free day roaming around Frankfurt Am Main
|
|
Day two in Frankfurt was essentially a free day before officially starting our tour. After consulting with the hotel concierge, we decide to walk over to the Städel Museum to view their collection. After the museum we came back to the hotel. Angela worked out, I took a nap. In the evening we met our Tauck tour guide Kate and our tour group (32 folks including us) for introductions, drinks and cocktails, followed by a group dinner at the hotel restaurant. Let the tours begin! |
