Advice First Solo Trip to Germany - Tips Needed!

I'm traveling to Germany for the first time, and I'm really excited but also a bit nervous since I'm going alone. I'll be in Cologne specifically and landing in Frankfurt. Any tips for a solo female traveler? What are the must-see spots in Cologne, and how safe is it for women traveling alone? Would love to hear your advice or experiences!

Cologne is a fantastic choice for your first solo trip! It's generally safe, especially in the central areas, so you can explore confidently. Must-see spots include the Cologne Cathedral, the Old Town with its charming streets, and the Rhine River promenade for scenic views. Don’t miss trying the local Kölsch beer in a traditional brewery! Have you thought about joining a walking tour? It’s a great way to meet people and get to know the city better. What are you most looking forward to on your trip?
