Our Day at the Neuschwanstein Castle

Because your tour is a custom tour, designed to your specific needs and wishes, what is outlined below is only suggestive. Consider it a jumping off point as we plan the specifics for how you would like your day at the castle to go. The actual details of your tour will be worked out during a video chat that we schedule as soon as possible after your booking is confirmed. During this chat, I get to know you, prepare you thoroughly to get the most out of your visit, and, most importantly, customize your day to your every desire! Through this video chat, valuable rapport is built that pays off when our big day comes.
