Amazing excursion! Neuschwanstein Castle and Linderhof Palace were absolutely beautiful. Oberammergau was a quaint little town in the Alps. Our guide Deyse was wonderful. She was very nice, informative and gave personal suggestions on places to go in our free time.
The tour was excellent. Our guide, Faizan, was outstanding! He was extremely knowledgeable and made the tour fun and educational. We would highly recommend Faizan as a guide for this tour.
An amazing experience, visiting two beautiful destinations. Muhammad and Goran were both friendly and professional at all times. Muhammad gave informative commentaries, and made sure times for meeting and tours were carefully explained. All in all a super day.

Great guides, knowledgeable, extremely friendly. Travel was very comfortable. Tour was just as described.
We had actually taken this tour back in 2023 in the fall and we had a wonderful time and we actually ended up having the same tour guide this time and she did it just as good job this time as she did last time
This is definitely worth the time to visit . The castle is beautiful and well worth the trip Our guide DEYSE did the best job making sure we did not get lost, stayed on time, she was friendly, inspirational, funny, Deyse and John the driver made our day the best. Thank you Deyse and thank you to John the driver. The ice cold German beer at the very end was also a high point of our Tours yummy yummy in my tummy . Keep hydrated drink a lot of beer.
Thi 'Premium' experience was worth the price because it was a small group tour with quality customer sevice from start to finish. A luxury air-conditioned coach was much appreciated on a roasting-hot day, likewise the onboard snacks. Entrance fees and skip the line sevice made a difference, allowing guests to relax and take photos, The Bavarian castles, lakes, and countryside truly are a delight not to be missed. Hats off to Jordan (driver) and special mention for our wonderful guide Deyse, who was cheerful, charming, and professional in every way ( a credit to her Gray Line employer). Many thanks. Peter Toland (New Zealand).
