Overview

Step back in time and follow the footsteps of Bavaria’s most enigmatic king, Ludwig II. Your journey begins with a private pickup from Munich, Garmisch-Partenkirchen, or Füssen in a comfortable vehicle stocked with cool drinks.

Built in 1886, Neuschwanstein Castle was Ludwig’s ultimate fantasy—a tribute to medieval romance and Wagnerian opera. Its soaring towers, perched high in the Bavarian Alps, seem straight out of a fairy tale. We’ll capture breathtaking views from Marienbrücke, the best vantage point to admire the castle and the dramatic Pöllat Gorge below.

With your included ticket, step inside the castle for a 45-minute guided tour through its opulent halls, secret passageways, and Ludwig’s private chambers. Afterward, enjoy exploring the castle’s surroundings, hidden trails, and scenic spots.

Optional: After immersing yourself in Ludwig’s dream world, feel the rush of Bavaria’s top summer toboggan run—an exhilarating ride with stunning alpine views!

  • Private transportation
  • OPTIONAL: Toboggan Run / Alpine Coaster Ticket (Includes 1 Coaster Ride & Mountain Gondola)
