Private Tour: Enjoy Scenic Rides, Stunning Lakeside Views & Bavarian Charm On A Relaxing Cycling Adventure
Cycling, Scandals & Starnberg’s Hidden Charms
Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup from your Munich accommodation, where cool drinks and snacks are waiting. A short ride later, we arrive at Starnberg, where we’ll hop onto bicycles and set off on a leisurely ride along the lakeshore. With breathtaking views of the Bavarian Alps, charming villages, and hidden beaches, this is a journey you won’t forget.
As we pedal, I’ll bring Starnberg’s past to life with stories of royal drama, tragic secrets, and famous visitors. This lake isn’t just beautiful—it’s legendary. It was here that King Ludwig II met his mysterious end, and over the centuries, Starnberg has drawn kings, celebrities, and Munich’s high society. Even today, you never know who you might spot enjoying a lakeside retreat.
A Dip in the Lake & A Taste of Bavarian Tradition
If the sun is shining and you’re feeling brave, why not take a dip in the crystal-clear water? The locals love swimming here in spring and summer, so bring your swimsuit and towel if you’d like to cool off like a true Bavarian.
After all that cycling and storytelling, it’s time to relax with a delicious meal at a lakeside restaurant. We’ll indulge in freshly caught fish, Bavarian specialties, and maybe a crisp local beer or a refreshing lemonade while soaking in the peaceful views.
An Authentic Escape, Just Like the Locals Do
This is not your typical tourist trip—it’s a deep dive into one of Bavaria’s most cherished hidden gems. Whether you’re drawn to Starnberg for its natural beauty, fascinating history, or simply the joy of escaping the city for a day of fresh air and adventure, this tour has something for everyone.
So grab your sunglasses, maybe a swimsuit, and get ready to ride, relax, and explore one of Munich’s favorite getaways!
