We enjoyed touring both Linderhof and Neuschwanstein. We purchased the tickets to go inside on the bus. It was a full day. Beautiful scenery as we traveled.

Summary: well organized trip, excellent guide, overall very satisfied!
Bus left station on time. Bus has a toilet (I did not use it). Our guide made everything clear. You know what to expect of the trip and what was expected from you. Seating was comfortable.
Tips:
1. Admission tickets cost 37 euros on the bus. Card only.
2. Can buy drinks on the bus for 2-3 euros. Cash only.
3. There is is about 2 hours for lunch and the hike up to the castle. I packed lunch and didn’t make a lunch stop. There are a lot of people who go to the bridge to take pictures.

This tour was really great, the only recommendation I would make is to skip the stop to the town where the passion play is performed. I think that hour would be better spent at Neuschwanstein Castle, and also maybe point out a few more lunch possibilities there.

Such a magnificent experience. Everybody should see the majesty of Linderhof and Neuschwanstein Castle. The drive alone is spectacular. Hanae our tour guide was just the most perfect lovely lady, her knowledge of the history and the scenic points of the region was incredible. The tour ran smoothly and kept to time yet plenty of time to see everything at ease. No rush. We saw everything as promised including the beautiful village of Oberamagau. An added bonus. It was a great day out worth the effort and expense.

We enjoyed the scenery of this tour and the destinations but our guide performed quite poorly. Hardly any facts or details were provided throughout the trip and whatever was said was clearly read off of a script. I believe our guide should have been given more training before being allowed to tour a group. For that reason I could not recommend touring with this company.

It was worth the trip but the weather was not in our favor and it really damped our visit. Both castles we visited were very interesting and it was enlightening to see how King Ludwig Ii lived long ago.
