    Ya butI thought atleast if a person visits the web through google then next time he shud remember the name... although h-a-m-b-u-r-g.info is messy but isnot it easy to remember this name as its the city name with hyphens b/w each letter.
    and i think .info suits the domain as well..... isnot it?

    hamburgtrip.com is my favorite choice. The other one is really too much trouble to type into an address bar. I can't remember seeing any other URLs like that.

    Definatly Hamburgtrip.com. Or, if you have both, why not set h-a-m-b-u-r-g.info to forward to hamburgtrip.com

    Forwarding the .info if you want to use that domain as well sounds the best idea, as I can't see anyone bothering to type in the .info domain with all those hyphens

    There is absoluetely no contest here, no-one, and I mean no-one will type in that many "-". You might get SEO traffic but no-one will return to the site if they have to type "that" in.

    hamburgtrip wins hands down, a real winner if developed properly....

    Go for hamburgtrip.com.

    Wouldn't even think of writing in the other one if I could avoid it.

    surely hamburgtrip.com

    the "-" hack is ok for 3/4 letters domains, yours is much too long imho.
