Thanks for sharing this post. Dusseldorf is the hub of the German fashion industry. Dusseldorf is a very clean city and known for its urban culture. You can find bold architecture, bars, hotels and hi-tech offices in Medienhafen.

Well hitchhiking is certainly now luxury travel but it’s good to know that the option is available. In the US and even Europe, there are some places where hitchhiking is not advisable and even illegal. I’ve heard some bad things about RyanAir but they are pretty cheap.

I don´t see what is ¨simply wrong¨ with stating that trains in Germany are pretty expensive. Everything depends on the itinerary and the number of people traveling. Laender Tickets can be good bargains, but they are not available in some Bundeslaender (federal states) + crossing the border of a Bundesland you need another Laender Ticket + a number of other limitations you have already mentioned. But what is really good about them, that in some Bundeslaender LTs work for buses as well=))

I’m sorry, but the information about trains being expensive in Germany is simply wrong. A single person buying a ticket immediately before travelling will pay top prices. Book far enough in advance and you can travel almost anywhere in Germany for just 29 Euros. Within each of thr German regions (and most of them are larger than the smaller European countries) and you can get a Laender Ticket. Currently 29 Euros, this covers up to 5 (FIVE) people for an entire day at weekends, after 9.00 on weekdays through the whole region, excluding express trains.

look for the cheap hotels, don’t hire taxis, travel by bus and take local help when required.
