Frankfurt is a busy urban centre that forms part of the heavily developed Rhine-Main region. With a hire car you’ll be able to tour the Main Valley and the surrounding landscape, like the Taunus Mountains, which lie to the northwest, or the Frankfurt City Forest, which you’ll find to the south.
If you hire a car from Frankfurt Airport, you’ll be able to tour the sights of the city. It’s renowned as an international financial centre but there plenty of cultural exploits to be enjoyed in the region too. The old parts of Frankfurt are full of historic buildings, like the gothic cathedral built of a distinctive red stone, and the Rathaus city hall dating back to the 15th century. St Paul’s church was the site of Germany’s first ever parliament.
