Fantastic star tour near Lübeck (Baltic Sea) including city tour

Queen of the Hanseatic League (and don't forget the marzipan)! [Queen of the Hansa (and don't forget the marzipan)!]

We waren at the excellent family-run Hotel Lindenhof, which is perfectly located for the train station and the city's attractions. The choice of breakfast at the hotel is great and just what every cyclist needs before starting their journey. Our excellent Guest Relations Officer, Mr. Bernd Mietzsch, was always available and so were we waren very grateful for fitting a water bottle cage to our bikes due to the sunny weather - we also appreciate his suggestion that we travel to Travemunde on the MS Nordland family run river cruise operated by Könemann Schiffahrt - definitely worth the trip for the captain's enthusiastic live commentary . The bikes waren, as always, perfect - and the tours full of interest and scenery. Lübeck is a fascinating place steeped in history and we could easily see why it was awarded UNESCO status. The only other thing we warn about is that if they (like us) went to Plön on a Sunday then many of the places to eat between Lübeck and Plön seem to be closed on Sunday lunchtime - us waren very grateful you discover the route passes the excellent Café Juglans in Dakendorf (Zu den Gründer 19) which serves snacks, cakes and refreshments - if it hadn't been for this cafe we ​​would have had to pack the food before starting the ride . Instead we could enjoy cake while sitting next to the huge walnut tree in their garden. Apart from this small potential problem, the bikes, hotel and vacation waren perfect and we hope others enjoy this tour as much as we do. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------- We stayed at the excellent family -run Hotel Lindenhof, which is located perfectly for both the station and the attractions of the city.
