Day 1 - Warm Welcome to Bielefeld

Bielefeld awaits you with open arms. Once you hop off the plane, take a moment to rest, then let's kickstart your adventure. Head to the Altstadt (Old City) and lose yourself in the quaint, cobbled streets lined with crooked timber-framed houses. It's history 101 you've never imagined, right? Next, it's time for the Bielefeld Sparrenburg, an iconic fortress located atop a lush hill. Channel your inner Game of Thrones character as you walk through the castle's mysterious underground passages. Tired yet? Well, let's take a breather with classic German fare at Restaurant Tomate, a traditional Medieval tavern in the heart of the city. The experience will take you on a culinary journey back in time. It's like stepping into a painting, isn't it? Finish the day by catching an enchanting sunset from the castle's vantage point. An exciting start to a fairy tale trip, don't you think?

Day 2 - Engage in Arts and Parks

Wake up and smell the coffee - literally. Try a traditional breakfast at Café Europa. Then, let's get a healthy dose of art and culture at Kunsthalle, an outstanding building which hosts modern and contemporary art exhibitions from international artists. Intriguing, don't you think? After this, immerse yourself in the serenity of the Olderdissen Animal Park. It's like stepping straight into a nature documentary. From observing European wildlife to the children’s farm. Isn’t it like stepping up close with the Animals of Farthing Wood? Finally, cap off the day with a traditional German meal at Restaurant Bellini back in the Altstadt. Look, you're fitting right into the local atmosphere!

Day 3 - Wrap up the Bielefeld Affair

Enjoy the calm aura of Bielefeld on your last day. Start with a visit to Farmhouse Museum, where exhibits portray life in the 17th century. It feels like you've discovered a time machine, doesn't it? Next, visit Heimat-Tierpark for some up-close time with native wildlife. Trust me, those adorable furry faces will melt your heart! Later, head to Botanischer Garten for a peaceful stroll amidst exotic plants and water features. Think of it as Bielefeld's equivalent of the Garden of Eden. Finish the excursion with a satisfying dinner at Leineweber, where they serve the best schnitzel in town. This caps off a magical journey through Bielefeld, with beautiful memories tucked under your arm.
