We had an amazing day visiting Neuschwanstein and Linderhof Castles! Our guide Deyse was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the history come alive with fascinating stories. Everything was well organized, and the timing at each stop was perfect. A special thank you to our driver, who was professional, safe, and made the journey smooth and comfortable throughout the day. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Bavaria. Thank you for making it such a memorable experience!

We booked Premier service for this tour. Highly recommend!!! Worth every dollar. Our guide Ursula was absolutely amazing! She was knowledgeable, engaging, funny and helpful. The driver was great too. It was nice to have coffee and snacks on the bus. And a nice Bavarian surprise at the end of the tour was a nice cherry on top of the cake. The bus was clean with plenty of leg room. The tour perfectly planned.

Both the tour guide, Johnny, and our driver, Dragon, made this trip amazing. Dragon was an incredible driver and Johnny was both funny and knowledgeable. It's very clear they have this itinerary mapped out and it left plenty of time to see and do everything but also not to linger. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic trip. Our tour was sold out, and we ended up on the VIP tour. This meant that in addition to Neuschwanstein and Lindenhof, we also got to stop in Oberammergau. The bus was very comfortable, and our tour guide Monika, was very knowledgeable and helpful. Well worth the money and the memories.

Everything was great; it all went smoothly. Our tour guide, Ursula, and the driver were very friendly and attentive. They brought some sunshine into the bus, which, unfortunately, wasn't very often to be found outside.

We loved seeing the two beautiful castles and our guide, Zinnia, was excellent at providing useful tips and clearly communicating our itinerary at each stop along the way! Would have gladly given 5 stars were it not for the weak air conditioning on our tour bus (temperature in the bus was 33C for the entire ride back to Munich).
