Oberammergau
Due to the corona crisis, the world-famous Oberammergau Passion Play had to be postponed by 2 years for the first time since the 2nd World War. Since 1680, this major event, which goes back to a vow from 1633, has always taken place at the full decade.
We are happy to show you the world's largest Passion Play theatre and its spectacular "convertible stage" on a guided tour of the town and will also be happy to explain the enchanting murals ("Lüftlmalereien") to you.
Take the time to go shopping - numerous shops offer souvenirs in a wide and non-expensive range, including the famous Oberammergau wood carvings.

Pilgrimage Church of Wies
The world's most beautiful rococo church is this 18th-century sacred building at the foot of the Ammergau Alps. Why such a jewel was built in the middle of agricultural meadows, you will gladly find out, among many other details, from your guide.
Please note: We reserve the right to show you a similarly magnificent late Baroque church instead of the Wieskirche.
25 minutes
Schloss Neuschwanstein
NEUSCHWANSTEIN castle - dream destination for innumerable travelers from all over the world! No building in Germany is visited more often than Ludwigs most famous fairytale castle, whose construction was begun in 1869.
It was dedicated to Ludwig's favorite composer Richard Wagner; the neo-Romanesque façade is deceptive that the progress made enthusiastic king build it as a high-tech castle. *****
During the 35-minute castle tour, you will be shown all the King's completed living quarters. On the subsequent 15-minute walk to the exit, you will pass through one of the unfinished floors, after which you will see the unusually modern kitchen of the castle and the planned bathroom. You will be well informed about the special features of these rooms by your guide before the castle tour. *****
Due to the corona crisis, the guided tours in the castle have been significantly reduced - the demand far exceeds the supply. As a participant of our excursion, however, you will always receive SKIP-THE-LINE tickets for the castle visit.
2 hours 30 minutes
Queen Mary's Bridge (Marienbrucke)
Mary's bridge - THE TOP VIEWPOINT - (built in 1866 by King Ludwig II) and one of the most famous in the world! It can be easily reached by a shuttle bus (€ 3.00 p.p.) from the parking lot or on a nice 40-minute uphill hike. From the bridge you'll reach the castle entrance within a 20-minute walk downhill and pass one more magnificent viewpoint! PLEASE NOTE: Due to its popularity, there may be waiting times for both the shuttle bus and access to the bridge! But not far from Mary's bridge you can reach another spectacular viewpoint - without waiting!
20 minutes
Starnberger See
A highlight of both landscape and history is the second largest lake in Bavaria, the 'Starnberger See', which was rightly once called the "Lake of the Dukes".
On the shores there are countless villas and mansions from bygone times.
Even today, the city of Starnberg has the highest millionaire density in Germany.
Marvel at the magnificent summer residences of Sissi, the enchanting and unhappy Empress Elisabeth of Austria.
After a short walk to the beach you will see the tiny 'Roseninsel' (Rose Island). It is the only island in the lake and was royally owned until the 20th century.
Furthermore, we show you on the opposite shore the place where Ludwig II died mysteriously on 13 June 1886.

Schloss Linderhof
(OPTIONAL, only with option "XXL-Time Credit"): LINDERHOF palace in the idyllic Graswang Valley, in the middle of the Ammergau Alps, was the favorite palace of King Ludwig II. Following the French model, it was the only one of the three "fairy tale castles" to be completed. During the 30-minute guided tour, let yourself be overwhelmed by the unique and lavish interior design in French Baroque style and by the world-famous "Little Table-set-yourself" (Tischlein-deck-dich)! ***** Admission (2025): adults € 10.00 (children under 18 free admission)

We had such an amazing day in Neuschwanstein and the area. Our guide was amazing. The Alpine Coaster was a highlight for the whole group. Definitely worth the money for the experience.

This was a highlight of our European holiday. The castles and the alpine coaster were as amazing as expected. Our lunch on a beautiful lake in Austria was a delightful addition. Our host Karl was amazing - friendly , funny, knowledgeable, efficient . We had a blast
A fantastic day-trip for the whole family
Published on Jun, 2024
What an excellent day exploring the Bavarian countryside! We were unfortunate to have it rain in the morning, but our tour guide, Karl, was fantastic in shifting things around so that we could do everything we wanted. We were traveling with 9 and 11 year old kids and their top priority was the Alpine Slide, which we didn’t want to do in the pouring rain. The Neuschwanstein Castle tickets were unfortunately pre-booked with a timed entry, so we had to make a choice, skip going into Neuschwanstein and do the Alpine Coaster in the afternoon or skip the coaster and go inside Neuschwanstein. We chose skipping the interior of Neuschwanstein, but we got to see the outside of it. Instead, we got to see the interior of another King Ludwig castle, Linderhoff and that was pretty amazing. It is super ornate! In addition to the castle and the slide, Karl took us to a nearby monastery and a nice restaurant on a lake in Austria for lunch. It was a fantastic day enjoyed by our whole multigenerational family (ages 9-76)!

Host provided a lot of background and history, and paused a few times along the way to show us some sights that were not outlined on the tour. It was the perfect balance of having a guide while also having time to explore on our own.
