The two hour train trip held beautiful views ( even if it was raining) and with Anna telling us all about Ludwig II time flew by. our views were hindered due to the rain but then it began to snow which turned it from annoying rain to magical snow moods. we were so happy it snowed. This experience made it a highlight. I am so happy we went on this tour. It would have been a lot harder to find out way there and a lot less interesting without the history provided if we did…”

At Neuschwanstein, get ready to hike 30 mins up and 30 mins back down from the bus parking lot to the castle itself. But it’s worth it!”

“Ticket pickup at 9am was great, however, we needed to be at the castle parking lot at 0920 to catch a bus to the top for a 1020 tour. It’s a 10min drive so no big deal, but my family was still at the hotel because we thought we would get our tour time at pickup (which is what the website says). We didn’t expect it to be immediate. We couldn’t make the bus and had to walk up the mountain to the top (30min walk for young/fit). We got there just as our tour (1020) started. Overall, neuschwanstein is gorgeous, the tour is great, the views are breathtaking. Well…”

The Viator guide meets you at the parking lot and then takes you on a bus ride up to the castle. Along the way, the guide provides a lot of history of the castle, the family that built it, and the region. You then get to spend a few minutes on the bridge before the interior tour.
