Wonderful experience! - Excellent experience! Monika was an outstanding guide and extremely knowledgeable. Walking up to the castle (vs taking the tram) was quite a workout but well worth it. The scenery was breathtaking. Our driver was wonderful too! Thank you Viator for providing us with a great day.

Great Tour - We loved our castle excursion. The Linderhof palace and Neuschwanstein castle are so different but both so beautiful and breathtaking. The bus ride was very pleasant. Having snacks and drinks on the bus were a bonus. Tom was a great driver and Jackie was a terrific guide. It was helpful to learn about the background of both Munich and Lidwig the second on bus ride to each location.

Amazing Tour! - This was an amazing history lesson! The Premium option is the way to travel, with coffee, fruit, and snacks to keep you going; large, recliner seats; and a guide who knows SO much about the castles and the King behind them.

10/10! - 10/10 tour! Jackie was very knowledgeable and provided the most interesting information about Munich and the surrounding countryside. She was also very knowledgeable about Ludwig II and made me curious to know more about him. We appreciated the frequency and amount of detail she provided, which allowed us to rest and enjoy the scenery. Tom was a fabulous driver and fantastic barista. The selection of snacks were great! We had clear expectations of what to expect at each site and enough time to enjoy ourselves at each location. Thank you Jackie and Tom!

Castle Tour - Grand!! - My wife and I took this tour with guide Hannah and bus driver Vladi and we could not have had a better time! Hannah was awesome and very willing to answer any random questions that popped into our heads. Vladi was very hospitable and always ready to make you a warm espresso when you got back on the bus from our cold stops! On top of it all, the castles and surrounding countryside were gorgeous and definitely worth the price of admission!

Amazing experience HIGH recommend - This trip was spectacular and I highly recommend. The bus was so comfortable, they even had snacks, coffee and tea! The buses had spaces to charge your electronics which is always such an added bonus when you’re taking so many pictures. I loved the places we went and would highlyyyyy recommend this tour! Also Ursula and Vlady were wonderful. Ursula is a wealth of knowledge!

Neuschwenstein Castle - All in all experience was good and tre trip great. Viator needs to be for organized though. I had trip to Neuschwanstein Castle one day and wandered to change to an earlier day. They said busy, but I show up (after saying we were confirmed for earlier day and had a QR code that diidn”t work. Last on the bus with seats leafy and the first one to show up. Guide Ursula was great and informative, but sometimes not very clear at where to have lunch, how to get to places when walking and how to get back from castle to bus. Glad we did it though and the day was lovely.
