A Scenic Journey Towards the Palaces

Explore Neuschwanstein and Linderhof Palaces in a single day from Munich in the luxury of a private car. The tour starts from Munich where you'll drive through scenic farmlands, and up into the mountains. Choose between two options having the same person as your driver and guide, or a separate local guide. Throughout the course of the 2-hour journey, you can expect to see some breathtaking sights. Visit the town of Hohenschwangau with its magnificent castle, Alpsee Lake, and quaint lanes.

King Ludwig II’s Splendid Castles

You'll be treated to stunning vistas when you make your way up to Neuschwanstein. Marienbrücke is a suspension bridge that offers spectacular views of the palace and its grounds and should be seen before visiting the castle grounds. Learn about the palace's history and architecture, and even buy mementos following your tour.

Follow it up with a trip to Linderhof, King Ludwig II's tiniest and only finished palace (and a clear homage to Versailles). See the beautiful gardens, one of the best in historicist garden design, and take a quick tour of the palace's exteriors. There is a mystery surrounding King Ludwig II's death, and your guide will tell you everything about it. After the sightseeing excursion is over, your guide will take you back to Munich and drop you off at your hotel or another agreed-upon location.
