Hey all,
I'm trying to surprise my dad with a trip to Germany for his 60th bday which is in December. The trip would be taken in the Spring. I am hoping to do a fly and drive thing. None of the pre-packaged tours seem to suit my needs. My mom grew up in the Black Forest so that has to be explored. Castles also would be great to see. Tourist areas are okay too. I want to plan a trip for a week so too much driving shouldn't be involved so we don't spend all our time driving. I'm trying to keep costs down because it will be four adults going (mom, dad, me and my sister).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't even know how to start an itinerary for a country I know nothing about. I've been to Berlin and Munich myself but I was on a tour bus so it really doesn't count!

Thanks!
Aimee
