On this truly royal day trip starting from Munich, you will visit Linderhof castle and the fairytale castle Neuschwanstein. The hotel transfer, a traditional lunch with a fantastic view of the world-famous Alps and all entrance fees are included in the tour price.
Enjoy an exclusive excursion on the traces of King Ludwig II of Bavaria. The royal time travel starts in the morning, with pick up at your Munich city hotel or private accommodation. Cool drinks and snacks will be waiting for you in the comfortable SUV vehicle. We will have enough time during the drive, to chat and get to know each other a little better. Of course, I will tell you a few interesting things about my hometown while we are on the way.
As soon we arrive at Neuschwanstein Castle, you will explore the palace on an approx. 60-minute small-group castle tour. Afterwards we will discover the fairytale castle from the outside. There are a variety of great photo opportunities there, be it the castle itself, the old Marienbrücke or the spectacular surrounding area. Despite the main residence of the Bavarian monarchs at the time - the Munich Residenz - being one of the most extensive palace complexes in the world, King Ludwig II of Bavaria felt the need to escape from the constraints he saw himself exposed to in Munich, and commissioned Neuschwanstein Palace on the remote northern edges of the Alps as a retreat but also in honour of composer Richard Wagner, whom he greatly admired.
On the way to Linderhof castle we make a stop in Schwangau (Brewery) or Ettal (Traditional beer garden). There, all participants get something delicious for lunch.
Strengthened and full of anticipation, we finally go to the impressive Linderhof castle. Once there, you will explore the palace on a approx. 30-minute guided tour. Afterwards we walk through the beautiful garden or outdoor area with its unique fountain and stroll through the impressive gardens. Linderhof is the smallest of the three palaces built by King Ludwig II of Bavaria and the only one which was actually completed and that he lived in most of the time from 1876.
After our stay, we head home towards Munich – back to the respective starting point or hotel/accommodation

Sepp is an amazing person and provided an unmatched experience for Octoberfest and tour of Munich. He is more personable than any guide we have ever had, more like a... read more close friend that you haven’t seen in a while. You really don’t need to look any further, just book Sepp.
28/09/2022We really appreciated our tour guide (Sepp) on this tour of Munich because he asked what we were most interested in and then customized the tour for us. Even though... read more we were on the City Highlights tour, he focused on interesting sites based on our interests. He stopped in several places and parked so that I could get out and take pictures and walk around but kept my husband (who couldn't get out of the SUV easily) company. He provided us a lot of information and we really got a good feeling for the city in just few couple hours. We also appreciated our traditional breakfast with a beautiful view above the city. We highly recommend this tour. All the best, Martha

I found Sepp on... read more trip advisor and he was able to secure us a great tent the opening weekend of Octoberfest - which was no small feat this year. The best way I can explain our experience is it was like attending Octoberfest with a best friend who lived in Munich.Sepp was not only a great guide but he fit in so well it was like he was part of our group . Seeing Munich and attending Octoberfest with Sepp really enhanced our experience. We all would highly recommend Sepp for any Munich or Bavarian experience .
