Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Private Tour from Munich

See the best of Bavaria on a day trip from Munich, led by an expert local guide! During tours of the region’s two famous highlights – Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Castle – learn about King Ludwig II, the shy yet extravagant 19th-century leader who made the two fairy-tale castles his home. Visit the idyllic villages of Hohenschwangau and Oberammergau.

Your private tour guide will pick you up at your hotel in Munich and drive to Hohenschwangau village. then we take the shuttle bus to Marienbrücke, a 19th-century crossing that overlooks the Pöllat Gorge. Gaze down at Neuschwanstein Castle with its elaborate turrets and parapets, and then pose for photos set against the backdrop of the heart-stopping Tegelberg mountain.

Then, head inside Neuschwanstein Castle for your walking tour, and learn how it was built for King Ludwig II in the 19th century. While the Romanesque Revival castle was intended as Ludwig’s retreat, the building was never completed and the king spent less than half a year living inside it. Admire the stately interiors, including murals that pay homage to compose Richard Wagner – Ludwig’s operatic idol – inside the Minstrel’s Hall. Explore rooms like Ludwig’s bedroom and admire the dazzling ornamentation of the Byzantine Throne Room.

travel onward to the village of Oberammergau, where the famous Passion Play is held once every 10 years. Explore the village, admiring its pretty Lüftlmalerei (painted houses).

then travel to Linderhof Castle – another of Ludwig’s former homes.

Nestled deep in the forest, Linderhof was the castle where the eccentric king spent most of his time. Step inside to see its lavish rooms such as the Hall of Mirrors and the Audience Chamber, and then visit the outside Venus Grotto – an artificial cave said to be modeled on Capri’s Blue Grotto (at the moment the Grotto is closed for maintenance works until further notice).
