A Tour Worth Your Time
James_D, October 2026
This tour was a great way to see the Neuschwanstein Castle. Fast access to the castle plus our very good guide Leon led with precision and humor. We took the shuttle bus up to the castle and Mary's bridge (it was one hell of a climb) and chose to walk down to meet our group at the end of the tour but didn't realize the trip down took 45 minutes. We descended in record time. The views from the castle were spectacular and the history of the castle was intriguing. All in all, this tour was worth the money, and we had a wonderful time.
Response from the operator · RadiusTours James,
This is a wonderful review and recommendation of the Neuschwanstein Castle Tour and we are so glad you enjoyed the day with us and Leon.
Thank you very much,

One of my most memorable tours in Munich! Jeff made it very interesting with the castle history and his sense of humor made me have my attention to 100%. I highly recommend this tour for its fun and history. I wouldn't have learned so much about the castle or had fun if it weren't for this tour. Thank you Jeff for making it memorable one!
