Review of Frankfurt/Main
Frankfurt
Take flights to Frankfurt for shiny skyscraper views, exclusive shopping and meaty feasts in apple wine taverns.
Things to do
Catch Frankfurt’s glitzy skyline at its best from Eiserner Steg bridge. On the other side of the River Main, skyscrapers give way to the cobbled streets and half-timbered houses of the 16th-century Römerberg square.
Shopping
Armani and Versace sit next to Cartier and Tiffany on Goethestrasse, right next to Frankfurt’s grand Alte Opera. Buy an exclusive dress for your flights from Frankfurt – or simply join the chic set leisurely window shopping.
Restaurants
The dimly lit taverns of quaint Sachsenhausen serve hearty Frankfurt fare like pork chops with sauerkraut or green herb sauce. To complete a Frankfurt holiday, try the sour, cider-like apple wine, served from large stone jugs.
Nightlife
Cutting-edge dance tunes fill the floors of the industrial-chic Fechenheim district, where the international DJ legend Sven Vaeth rules. After hours, see Frankfurt live up to its nightlife reputation inside the futuristic superclub - Cocoon.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Frankfurt. Book your Frankfurt tickets to catch the cultural extravaganza of August's Museumsuferfest or mulled wine at December’s Christmas Market.
