Activity itinerary

Romantic Road (Pass by)

Enjoy the enthralling vistas of the Alps along this famous stretch of road.

Schloss Hohenschwangau

5m
Admission ticket not included

Castle Hohenschwangau is located at the base of Neuschwanstein castle so we see both of them at the same time. We do not usually tour the inside of the this palace but we do get to see it from the outside.

Schloss Neuschwanstein

2h
Admission ticket not included

Perched dramatically on a rugged hill overlooking the Bavarian Alps, Neuschwanstein Castle is a breathtaking 19th-century palace commissioned by King Ludwig II. Often called the "fairytale castle," its romantic medieval architecture, complete with soaring turrets, ornate interiors, and stunning views, inspired Walt Disney's iconic castle. Though intended as a private retreat for the king, it was opened to the public shortly after his death and now captivates millions of visitors annually. Getting Up to Neuschwanstein Castle: On Foot: The most economical option, it's a steep but well-maintained paved walk that takes approximately 20 minutes. Shuttle Bus: Buses depart every 20 min. . From the bus stop, it's about a 10-15 minute downhill walk to the castle entrance. Tickets can be bought on the bus.

Reutte

We stop in this quaint village for a traditional lunch in a small but very local restaurant run by our good friend Marty. They serve the best Schnitzel or freshly caught fish Austria has to offer.

Plansee

We pass by this scenic lake nestled in the Austrian Alps. On a hot day we can even swim in this lake but it is a dash cold.

Schloss Linderhof

1h
Admission ticket not included

Step into the opulent world of King Ludwig II with a visit to Linderhof Castle, his most intimate and the only palace he lived to see completed. Modelled on the Petit Trianon at Versailles, this jewel-box palace showcases stunning Rococo interiors and reflects Ludwig's deep admiration for the French monarchy. But the magic extends beyond the palace walls to the awe-inspiring Venus Grotto. This artificial stalactite cave, inspired by Wagner's opera "Tannhäuser," is a fantastical creation complete with a lake, a gilded shell boat, and dramatic lighting effects that once replicated the Blue Grotto of Capri. Prepare to be transported to a world of myth and theatrical grandeur within this unique and unforgettable space. Cost of the Castle tour or the Venus Grotto is not incl. in the tour price but can be bought on site, no need to pre-book.

Alpine Coaster Oberammergau

1h
Admission ticket not included

For the adventurous at heart, why not swap one of our regular stops (Ettal or Oberammergau) for an unforgettable ride on the Alpine Coaster! Imagine a rollercoaster where you control the speed with your own brakes. Reach a maximum of 25 mph as you whiz down the mountain, but feel free to cruise at your own pace. The adventure begins with a leisurely 20-minute scenic chairlift ride to the summit, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the town and the stunning Alps – perfect for photos! Simply let your guide know on the day if you're ready for this exhilarating experience. Cost of the Chair Lift ride and Coaster back down or not incl. in the price of the tour.

Oberammergau

Discover the enchanting village of Oberammergau, world-renowned as the home of the Passion Play, a dramatic tradition performed by its residents every ten years. 1 Beyond the stage, Oberammergau is a haven for unique Christmas decoration shopping year-round, boasting exquisite wood carvings and handcrafted ornaments. 2 Wander through its quaint streets, adorned with beautifully painted houses ("Lüftlmalerei"), and soak in the traditional Bavarian atmosphere that makes this town a truly special destination.

Ettal Abbey

Nestled in a picturesque valley, Ettal Abbey is a magnificent Benedictine monastery founded in 1330 by Emperor Ludwig the Bavarian. Its stunning Baroque architecture, particularly the impressive basilica with its soaring dome and intricate frescoes, draws visitors from around the world. Beyond its visual splendour, Ettal is a working monastery where monks still live and practice the Benedictine principles of "Ora et Labora" (pray and work). The abbey also boasts a rich history as a place of pilgrimage and learning, and today operates a renowned brewery, distillery, and other enterprises, offering a unique glimpse into monastic life and Bavarian tradition.
