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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

(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 (2024): adults € 10.00 (children under 18 free admission)

(OPTIONAL, only with option “XXL-Time Credit”): Let yourself be overwhelmed by this scenically unique ride through Austria along the crystal clear plan lake framed by Tyrolean and Bavarian mountain peaks. A section of the route leads through Austrian territory, so please remember to have valid identity documents. PLEASE NOTE: In case of unfavorable traffic conditions, we drive a similarly attractive route on the Bavarian side.

(OPTIONAL, only with option “XXL-Time Credit”): Founded only in the 14th century, Ettal Monastery is one of the highlights of this tour due to its Gothic-Baroque church with its monumental dome.

The Benedictine monks there not only run a High school, but also brew the delicious Ettal beer, which can be enjoyed on site together with specialties from Bavarian cuisine in one of the numerous inns.

Between the sights and during the trips to and from your hotel, you will enjoy the journey in our luxurious Minivans with panoramic glass roof, full leather upholstery, all conceivable safety precautions and exciting information from your friendly and professional tour guide.
