  • Driving in Germany can seem unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind traffic flows on the right side of the road.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Germany is 0.05%. Because alcohol doesn't affect all people equally, the best way to be sure you're safe to drive is not to drink anything at all.

  • Try to travel outside heavy traffic periods for a faster run in general. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.

  • The euro (EUR) is the currency you'll be using for everyday expenses and activities. Pay by card where you can, but carry a little cash when electronic payments aren't an option.
