What awaits you
Magical alpine landscapes Along the way, you will see the highest mountain in Germany, the Zugspitze, and can take pictures with it in the background. And also take a look at the world's longest Tibetan-style bridge, thrown directly over the road. On the way back, you can even walk along it if you want to tickle your nerves a little, because its bottom is transparent! All the time you will be accompanied by unsurpassed alpine views "like a picture" and boring conversations about life in Austria through the eyes of locals - let's talk about migrants, living standards, school education and much more
"Swan Village" Schwangau and castles of Ludwig of Bavaria Upon arrival, you will set out to explore the fabulous Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein … I will tell you about the non-trivial personality of Ludwig of Bavaria and share the stories of local residents who usually pass by. You will find out how the Bavarians really treated the king, hear the romantic and sad story of relations with Sophia of Bavaria, and uncover versions of the mysterious death of the ruler. Let's talk about how “no one needed locks” turned into a super-profitable tourism business in the region and where part of the money received from the sale of entrance tickets goes
Relax on the lake and Bavarian brewery Alternatively, you can swim or ride a catamaran / boat on the local lake. I will also show you the most beautiful and hidden photo spots so that you can add rare pictures to your collection. On the way back, we can stop by the brewery, where you will taste excellent beer and taste traditional Bavarian cuisine.
