This is my new itinerary. You may call or email if you are interested in visiting your ancestors villages. You will have to opportunity to visit with your German relatives on the island Fehmarn.
I did my first tour in March/April 2000 and had a wonderful group of people. They may tell you how much they liked the tour and what they liked best. I found out that most of them did not know much about the island Fehmarn and their ancestors. Since my husband and I were born and raised on the island I like you to get to know this wonderful piece of the world. Did you know that we said: "we go to Europe" when we traveled to the mainland. Fehmarn is unique and you have to see it for yourself.
Let me know if I can help you.
