Discover the stories, fables, and legends behind the Mad King's Palace on this tour to Neuschwanstein Castle from Munich.

Tour Details

After meeting the guide in the morning, we will leave the city and head to the south of Bavaria by bus or train, depending on the season. The professional English-speaking guide will share interesting facts during the two-hour trip.

We will see Neuschwanstein Castle and also have the chance to admire Hohenschwangau Castle, the childhood home of Ludwig II of Bavaria. The tour includes insights into this historic figure, known as the Mad King, while appreciating the castle that inspired Walt Disney.

The tour will take us to prime viewpoints to admire Neuschwanstein's architecture, including the Marienbrücke, which offers photo opportunities from 98 feet (30 meters) high. If time and weather permit, we may stroll to the nearby lake or enjoy the countryside, with a stop for food and drinks.

There is an option to enter Neuschwanstein Castle; however, tickets are not included (adults: 24EUR; free for children under 18). Tickets can be purchased from your guide on the day. If you choose not to enter, you will have free time to explore the castle’s surroundings.

After nine hours of discovering German history and architecture, we will return to Munich to conclude the tour.
