CoupleVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5A magnificent castle—there’s not much more to say. It’s definitely worth a visit, no ifs, ands, or buts. Our guide, Steven, was fabulous: punctual, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. He conveys passion and expertise with every word. WELL DONE! The tour went very well—from the meeting point to the bus ride up the hill to the carriage ride back down, everything was perfect.CChabagno X

CoupleVerified bookingLast week5/5It was very well organized. We took a van up to the top, had a great guided tour outside the castle, and an audio tour inside—that was good, too. It was even more beautiful than I expected! I highly recommend it!CChris S
FamilyVerified booking3 weeks ago5/55/5 Stars – An Unforgettable Day at Neuschwanstein with Stephen! If you are planning a trip to Neuschwanstein Castle, do yourself a favor and book a tour with Stephen! He was, without a doubt, an incredible guide who made our entire experience truly unforgettable. Stephen is a master storyteller. Rather than just repeating dry facts, he brought the history of King Ludwig II and the castle to life with fascinating, engaging stories that kept us hooked from start to finish. On the walk up to the castle, he made sure we didn’t miss a thing—showing us all the best hidden viewpoints, scenic stops, and photo spots that we definitely would have overlooked on our own. His enthusiasm, warm energy, and deep knowledge made the whole day effortless and fun. Thank you, Stephen, for such a fantastic tour! Highly recommended to anyone visiting!RRobyn M
CoupleVerified booking6 days ago4/5A wonderful tour from start to finish! The guide was personable and accommodating. The driver was also very funny. We learned not only about the castles but also Munich, so that was a nice bonus. Both castles were very beautiful and the live tour for the first castle was especially entertaining and interesting. For the second castle, it was only an audioguide, but it was good quality. We didn't get a photo from the bridge because the queue was incredibly long, but it didn't matter - we still got some lovely photos and experienced the castle up close. I would definitely do another tour with this company!
