Itinerary

Your private guide will pick you up from your hotel in Munich, and we’ll head to the picturesque Hohenschwangau Village.

We begin with a shuttle ride to Mary’s Bridge (Marienbrücke), offering stunning views and excellent photo opportunities. From there, we’ll walk to the world-famous Neuschwanstein Castle, often referred to as the fairy-tale castle, where we’ll enjoy a guided tour (The castle entry is conducted as a group tour, in line with the castle's policy). You'll learn about King Ludwig II of Bavaria, known as the Swan King (reigned 1864–1886), and explore the fascinating history behind Neuschwanstein, which was constructed between 1869 and 1886. After the tour, we’ll return to Hohenschwangau Village in a traditional horse-drawn carriage.

✳️Please note that (During the winter months, due to snow and for safety reasons, the Marienbrücke is closed).

Next, we’ll drive to the historic village of Oberammergau, renowned for its wood carving traditions, beautifully painted houses, and the original Passion Play, which began in 1634. You’ll have free time to enjoy lunch, take photos, and explore local shops.

Next stop:

We’ll visit the magnificent Ettal Abbey, an impressive Baroque masterpiece nestled in the village of Ettal, in the foothills of the Bavarian Alps. Founded in 1330 by Holy Roman Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian for a group of knights and Benedictine monks, the abbey remains an active monastic community. You'll gain insight into the daily lives of the Benedictine monks who still reside there.

Afterward, we’ll return to your hotel, concluding a day filled with history, culture, and natural beauty.
