Awesome trip. Great guide and transportation. Everything very well coordinated. The castles were beautiful. Just be aware no photos are allowed inside the castles. Otherwise, I really enjoyed it.

Dayse was such an amazing tour guide to the Royal Castles. It was a busy day but she made sure we got to see everything we wanted too. She was so kind and always ready to answer any questions we had! The tour itself is a must if you’re visiting Munich.
