What You Will Do
Go beyond the ordinary. Most visitors rush through Neuschwanstein, missing its hidden stories. This tour is different.
With my doctorate in mythology, discover the medieval sagas painted on the castle walls. With my 32 years as a master storyteller, hear Ludwig’s tale in a way that moves you. As a trained opera singer, learn from me how Wagner’s music shaped the castle’s magic.
Other tours herd fifty people onto a bus. With my tour, your group is the only one along—a fully private experience. With my attention to detail, everything is customized for you. Just relax and enjoy.
Other private tours rely on heavy SUVs to drive to the castle, adding to environmental strain in the region. This tour glides through the Bavarian countryside in a First-Class train—combining luxury with sustainability.
Unlike standard tours, this is an immersive journey. Come with me, and experience the mystery of Neuschwanstein’s untold stories.

We begin our day here as we board the First Class Compartment of a state of the art German train. As we roll in comfort through resplendent Bavarian countryside, the Alps grow higher and higher on the horizon. During our time on the train, Thomas the tour guide will share with you the poignant story of King Ludwig, the builder of the castle, and the role the castle plays as a work of art, as a storybook, and as an alternative version of how life could be. Expect to be moved by the powerful storytelling of Thomas as he takes you on a journey through the medieval legends told in each room of the castle.

Really efficient and information-packed day lead by Thomas. He was a great storyteller who helped bring all the imagery in the castle to life.
The castle tour was brief but well worth it, a funny guide called Peter. You buy tickets for the inside tour separately at the tour ticket office when checking in.
Beautiful views in the town too, we walked down to the lake going up to the castle and we’d recommend the castle balcony for more lakes, mountains and scenery views.
Recommend this tour, a fabulous day and we felt lucky to have Thomas as the guide as he was great.

Our impressions are excellent as we had a very good time being there. Also, our tour guide Thomas made a great job leading us and providing us with useful info about the castle and its whole history 👍. To sum up, these 7/8 hours being there were both interesting and educational. We will be visiting the place again in the near future!!
