See the castles that inspired Disney movies in the flesh with this full day tour to the beautiful German countryside! Created by Germany's Ludwig II (also known as the Swan King), the two castles are famous for their extravagant architecture. Depart from Munich at 8:30am, and then marvel at the beautiful German countryside inside comfortable air conditioned coaches on your way to Linderhof. The first stop is the Linderhof Royal castle, a 19th century Romanesque-revival castle inspired by the Palace of Versailles. Feel like royalty as you walk through the castle grounds. After touring the castle, you'll be taken to the charming village of Oberammergau, where you can have lunch (at own cost). Last but definitely not least, you'll visit the fairytale-like Neuschwanstein castle, that on good days almost looks like it's sitting on the clouds. There you'll have approximately four hours to explore the beautiful castle on your own - the perfect ending to your own fairytale.

Activity Q&A
Q: Are there specific times where I can enter the castles, or can I visit any time during the day?
A: The entrance tickets to the castles are not open tickets, but guided tours at the castles that start every few minutes. The entrance tickets are marked with the exact time of the tour, and you need to be at the entrance to the castles during the time indicated to be part of the tour.

The Disney castle, what more can we say? The climb was a good workout too :) Linderhof was small and cosy but the royalty is not any muted.
