One day in Frankfort

I am traveling to South Africa and have a 12 hour layover in Frankfort on November 30, 2009. I will arrive there at 9:00. Any suggestions of what to do?

How about renting a car and driving along the Rhine? It's really not that far and it's a very scenic drive, with many small towns along the way that you could stop, get out and walk around in.

I have no idea what this has to do with Europe. Frankfort is in Kentucky.

Dear Lee, do typos really make you that nuts? Frankfurt Germany is one of few main cities/routes on the way to South Africa. Dear Cathy a 12 hour lay over will just make the already 30 hours worse, if you have not booked/paid try and lay over a couple of nights each way. Castles on the Rhine is good, Porches factory tours... Joanne

Hope Jo in Frankfurt sees this and can give you some suggestions. Mine would be to get a hotel room and rest for a few hours.

Well, the Christmas market is on for one thing and it is a very lovely one too, IMHO.

I have quite a few posts on here about what to do in Frankfurt for a day or for a layover. Have you already searched this forum?

Not a fan of Ricks walk through Frankfurt, he misses half of the good stuff.
