Great deal! Comfortable way to manage the tickets to visit both castles on desired day and enjoy untroubled trip, focussing just on experinces. Worth of money.

It was an awesome day! I highly recommend! I learned a lot about the history of the Baviera. The view is amazing! The castles worth the visitation. The guide is awesome! Just do it!

We had a great day with Faizan as our guide! Faizan was very friendly and informative, and attentive to the needs of everyone on the tour. Faizan had great clear and concise communication about when and where to meet for transport. He also joined the tours and provided additional information, and allowed us to ask questions which he answered in great depth. The coach was extremely clean and comfortable. We liked thatbl we had free time at both castles/villages in addition to the guided tour.
