Citizens of the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Germany, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. 

Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. 

For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle Eastern, African, or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.

One of Europe’s busiest international hubs, Frankfurt Airport (FRA) is located about 12 km southwest of the city centre. The quickest way into the city is by S-Bahn lines S8 or S9, which run from the Regionalbahnhof under Terminal 1 to Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof in around 10 to 12 minutes. Regional Express (RE) trains and long-distance services also stop at the Fernbahnhof station beside Terminal 1. Taxis take roughly 20 to 30 minutes, depending on traffic, and bus line 61 runs from Terminal 1 to Frankfurt Südbahnhof in about 25 minutes.

The best time to visit Frankfurt is from late spring to early autumn, when the weather is pleasant and the city feels less crowded. Summer can get warm, around 25°C, and this is when Frankfurt is at its busiest, with tourists, outdoor events, and festivals filling the streets. From mid-September to mid-October, the city turns golden with autumn colours, which are best admired from one of Frankfurt’s tall towers. Oktoberfest runs during this period too, with plenty of beer, food, music, and local fun, though on a smaller scale than Munich. For festive cheer, December is ideal. The Christmas market fills the city centre with lights, stalls, and that unmistakable holiday atmosphere.

Best Time to Visit

Frankfurt boasts an efficient and comprehensive public transport system, making it an excellent choice for tourists exploring the city. 

Operated by the Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV), the network encompasses buses, trams, U-Bahn (subway), and S-Bahn (suburban trains), all integrated under a unified fare system. This integration allows passengers to use a single ticket across different modes of transport. 

For tourists, the Frankfurt Card is particularly advantageous. Available for 1 or 2 days, it offers unlimited travel within the RMV fare zone 50, which includes the city centre and the airport. The card also provides discounts on numerous museums, attractions, and dining establishments. 

Tickets can be purchased via the RMVgo app, at RMV ticket machines, or directly from bus drivers. It's important to note that Frankfurt operates on a proof-of-payment system, which means there are no turnstiles. Therefore, passengers should ensure they have a valid ticket before boarding, as plainclothes inspectors conduct random checks, and fines are imposed for non-compliance.

For information on fares, timetables, and routes, visit RMV's official website.

In Frankfurt, taxis can be hailed on the street (if the roof sign is on), found at ranks near train stations, major hotels and airports, or booked via phone or apps. Local taxi services, such as Flash Taxi and Main Taxi Frankfurt, operate reliably across the city. Ride‑sharing apps, such as FreeNow and Bolt, are also available in Frankfurt.

Pharmacies in Frankfurt are easy to spot by the bright red ‘A’ sign for Apotheke. Most are independently run rather than part of large chains, and staff are generally well-versed in English, particularly in central areas. They sell prescription and over-the-counter medicines, as well as travel essentials, and can often advise on local equivalents for foreign medications. For travellers, Hirsch Apotheke on the Zeil and Centrum-Apotheke an der Hauptwache are both central and reliable options.

Frankfurt may be best known for its modern skyline and role as Europe’s financial hub, but behind the banks and business lies a city full of heart. Between gleaming steel-and-glass towers and medieval squares, Frankfurt reveals its softer side: art, music, and a cosmopolitan spirit that welcomes the world. Compact, creative, and full of contrasts, Frankfurt is always evolving, and that’s what makes it so exciting.

For a fun way to see Frankfurt, hop on the Ebbelwei-Express, a vintage tram that rattles through the city on weekends and public holidays. On board, passengers are served apple wine (or juice) and a bag of pretzels while local music plays in the background. The hour-long ride takes in many of Frankfurt’s main sights, and tickets are sold by the conductor. You can board at any of the tram stops along the route, but the ticket covers one full loop without hopping off and back on again.

Römerberg is the medieval square at the heart of Frankfurt’s Old Town.
