TOUR 2:
NEUSCHWANSTEIN and LINDERHOF PALACE :(11 hours)
We will pick you up at aprox. 9:00 AM and drive to the south-west of MUNICH. You will pass the wonderful lake of STARNBERG and the city of WEILHEIM, capital of the region of SCHONGAU before arriving at the charming valley of the ALLGÄU, with its most important city FÜSSEN and the lake called FORGGENSEE.
Here at the town of HOHENSCHWANGAU you will visit the famous NEUSCHWANSTEIN Castle, which has inspired so many people including Walt Disney, who built a reduced copy of it at Disneyworld/Orlando.
As an additional option you also might want to visit the HOHENSCHWANGAU castle, just in front of the other, which was the parent castle from King Ludwig II. It is not as big, but very rich in antique treasures and jewelry to be admired. To get to the castle it will take a 25 minutes walk uphill or you might take the available horsecarriages to get there. In high seasons the waiting line can be up to 45-60 minutes. With us you will not have to queue up!
In the afternoon, and after a relaxing lunch at the site or next to the lake, we will continue, via Austria, to the LINDERHOF PALACE, passing mountains, lakes and beautiful natural sites.
Back in Germany, not far from the Austrian border, in the middle of a green natural mountain area you will visit LINDERHOF PALACE and its impressive parc around.
At aroung 6 PM we will head back to Munich arriving aprox. 8 PM. As an option, before returning we could visit the historical town of OBERAMMERGAU or the ETTAL Abbey.
