Ticketing was easy to do on my phone. The trip was fantastic, we were able to view the inside of the Neuschwanstein Castle & Linderhof Palace, learning a lot about the history. Maxine our tour guide was great, a wonderful person and a top notch guide.. The entire experience was well planned. The bus had snacks and drinks for the journey in both directions. And we were offered a German Beer on the trip bad. Would highly recommend this tour.

We had a fantastic experience with this tour group, thanks to our guide Elof. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also made the tour fun and engaging. Elof gave us clear and detailed instructions on where and when to meet, which made everything run smoothly. His explanations throughout the tour were informative and thoughtful—we learned so much while enjoying every moment. Highly recommend!

My family of 4 from America had an outstanding time! On our trip through Europe, this tour was our top highlight. Everything went smoothly, the bus was comfortable, and our tour guide Christine was awesome. She had snacks and drinks readily available, and we met some really great people on our tour. I honestly can't say enough great things.

    The tour experience was indeed awesome. We were travelling with a 7 month old baby and were unsure how a 10 hour tour would turn out - esp. in rainy & windy conditions. However, the bus was clean and well equipped, the tour guide was really helpful and the other fellow passengers were also great. We were given snacks & drinks at regular intervals, and the tour guide kept sharing a lot of information about the history of Munich and the two castles throughout the journey. Overall, it was a fun day and would highly recommend this tour to everyone.
