Munich
Day 1 - 5
Munich, the lively capital of Bavaria and the third-largest city in Germany, lies on the banks of the River Isar. A modern hub complete with state-of-the-art skyscrapers and an exciting nightlife scene, the city revels simultaneously in its traditional customs and its sense of innovation. Some of the phenomenal historical attractions include spectacular Schloss Nymphenburg and the grand Residenz Museum, along with countless others. Nicknamed ‘city of art and beer’, Munich is strewn with impressive and diverse galleries (top choices include the Kunstareal Art Quarter and other-worldly Pinakothek der Moderne) and offers sublime beer-tasting opportunities in a variety of wonderful beer houses and gardens. Locals claim this is the culinary capital of the country - make sure to visit the Viktualienmarkt and dedicate some time to the metropolis’ restaurants. Gorgeous parks, jaw-dropping sports venues, and world-famous festivals (including legendary Octoberfest) complete the package.

Your activity
Neuschwanstein & Linderhof Premium
Travel through the picturesque Bavarian countryside on your way to two of Germany’s most spectacular royal landmarks — Linderhof Palace and Neuschwanstein Castle, both envisioned by the legendary King Ludwig II and celebrated for their fairytale settings and distinctive architecture.
Your journey begins at Linderhof Palace, a stunning French Rococo-style residence surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. From there, continue to the charming village of Oberammergau, famous for its once-a-decade Passion Play and traditional woodcarving heritage. After a brief stop to explore, the tour continues to iconic Neuschwanstein Castle.
Arriving around midday, you’ll have ample time to explore the castle area, enjoy lunch, and browse for souvenirs — all while taking in the breathtaking alpine scenery surrounding one of the world’s most famous castles.
