Step into the heart of Bavaria with a visit to Neuschwanstein Castle, one of Germany’s most iconic landmarks. Commissioned by King Ludwig II in 1869, this hilltop castle features soaring towers and fairy-tale architecture that inspired Disney’s Sleeping Beauty castle. The panoramic views of the Hohenschwangau Valley are just as memorable as the castle itself.
Enhance the day with visits to nearby cultural treasures. Explore the lavish interiors of Linderhof Castle, admire vibrant frescoes at the UNESCO-listed Wieskirche, or stroll through the storybook village of Oberammergau—famous for its intricate woodcarvings and Passion Play. Guests can also tour Hohenschwangau Castle, the childhood home of Ludwig II, nestled just below Neuschwanstein.
From royal castles to charming villages, this full day offers an unforgettable look at Bavaria’s rich history, scenic beauty, and romantic legacy.
