Program details
Transport yourself into the pages of a fairy tale with this day-long trip to two of King Ludwig II's dream castles, Neuschwanstein and Linderhof. Often referred to as Bavaria's fairy tale King, these enchanting castles will surely provide you with an insight and understanding as to why this title is well deserved.
Get a good night's sleep and head out early to a world that you thought only existed in fantasy. You'll make your way to the first extraordinary castle, the Neuschwanstein. Sitting high above in the Bavarian Alps, this castle is simply stunning, bright white against the rolling greens of the valleys and mountains that surround it. With steep peaks and stone arches, the structure is remarkable and a treat to gaze upon. King Ludwig truly had appreciation and a vision for the finer side of life, and this castle is clearly no exception.
After exploring the castle in awe, you'll continue over to Linderhof. Set on sprawling grounds and gardens, complete with a large fountain, this expansive palace is like imagination come to life. As you tour through the castle, you'll be mesmerized by the opulent display of rich detailed furnishings and walls and rooms that appear to be dipped in gold. The splendour of it can be at times truly overwhelming and remarkable in the same breath.
Enjoy taking it all in, before heading to the quaint village of Oberammergau, where you'll be able to do some shopping for a little special something.
Come imagine yourself a king or queen in your own right, as you explore two of the most fantastic castles of Bavaria. With an unmatched elegance likely not experienced before, you'll create memories to last a lifetime.
