We were picked up at our hotel in a comfortable van and driven to each castle, lunch , and Oberammergau. David was kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. He even had thought to bring umbrellas for us- which we needed! We enjoyed being able to discuss King Ludwig and the history of the area between our stops. I highly recommend booking a private guided tour with David!

We had an amazing day and finally experienced a bucket-list attraction! Thank you David for giving us a safe and educational tour of Neuschwanstein and Lunderhof palace. We couldn't have been more happy with our experience!
From the moment we were picked up at our hotel in Munich to the time David dropped us off, we had a fantastic day! He thought of everything, from water to candies to tissues to phone chargers. The ride in the van was super comfortable. David was extremely knowledgeable about the historical and cultural significances of the sites. He’s a wealth of knowledge! His humor, kindness and willingness to ensure our every need was met throughout the day was truly appreciated! I wouldn’t hesitate to book another tour with him!
We had an absolutely fantastic day with David from Munich Private Tours on our private tour of Neuschwanstein & Linderhof Castles. From start to finish, everything was seamless and tailored perfectly to our needs. David is a walking encyclopedia—his knowledge of Bavarian history, architecture, and culture added so much depth to the experience. He knew all the best photo spots (which made a big difference), was incredibly accommodating with our schedule, and made the entire day feel like a VIP experience. His driving skills—especially on the Autobahn—were impressive and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout. On top of the stunning castles, David took us to what might be the best Italian restaurant in Bavaria. Every detail was thoughtfully planned and executed. If you're considering a private tour in the Munich area, don’t hesitate—David is the best of the best!
Aiman, our driver and guide, was enthusiastic and passionate. He was always helpful and flexible to our needs.
This was an awesome tour experience. Aiman is super knowledgeable and very kind with a great touch for maximizing your experience. From pointing out additional aspects not discussed in the castle tours to knowing the best vignettes for photos he really makes it a seamless experience. We also had a fantastic lunch of traditional German food. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone! It is well worth the money and time.
My family and I had a great tour visiting Neuschwanstein and Linderhof! Spendi was incredible - he lives up to his nickname of The Professor. He made the day so fun and we enjoyed every moment! 10/10 experience thanks to Spendi!
David was our private tour guide and everything from the admission tickets, lunch, and transportation were arranged seamlessly. David shared interesting history about the castles along the way. If we ever came back, we would travel again with David on another tour!
We booked this tour after reading so many great reviews. Aimen is a fantastic guide. We were lucky to have a perfect Spring day for our visit. His Mercedes van is immaculate and he provides water and snacks. He had the day well organised so we could see everything on the itinerary in good time. He has a wealth of knowledge and provided a clear historical background about king Ludwig II, and the local area. He is very accommodating to personal needs or preferences. My husband is slow on stairs, so he arranged for us to enter Nueschwanstein a few minutes before our tour time so we didn't feel rushed. We caught the shuttle bus up and had a horse carriage ride down. He has a few short cuts up his sleeve, and even though there were a lot of people about, we never stood in crowds or queued. I highly recommend his tour, as we also had a photo stop by lake Plansee, we visited Linderhof Palace, and saw Oberammergau on our way back to Munich.
A fantastic experience with Aiman. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. This tour let us see a lot of things we wouldn’t have been able to navigate on our own, and we’re very thankful we booked this tour!
This was one of the best and most comfortable tours we have ever been on. Our guide Aiman was excellent! His knowledge, attention to detail, and friendly personality really made this trip fantastic. All the sites were beautiful and Aiman showed us all the special details including the best spots for pictures! We would highly recommend this tour! It was a great day!
Our tour guide Aiman gave us one of the best experiences of our life! The main focus of our tour was Neuschwanstein Castle and the Linderhof Palace. Our guide made sure the timing was perfect for the travel and tours went so smoothly. We also had several other points of interest on the way and on the return trip. We had time to stop and take photos, do some shopping, and have a stop for food. Our guide was attentive in making sure we had adequate time to climb the steps without feeling uncomfortable or rushed. He knew all the history of the sites we were viewing, and answered all our questions. He knew all the best photo spots. I cannot say enough about what a positive experience this was for us. It was perfect!
Aiman was the best guide we have ever had. The trip was absolute perfection. He’s friendly, courteous, and incredibly intelligent. He knows so much about the places and areas he took us to. We saw things we didn’t even know about. This trip is worth every cent.
What a fabulous day! Aiman was the perfect guide for our day. We were traveling with two teens. His knowledge and information kept us all engaged. His vehicle and driving were fabulous. We were seeing beautiful sites, but I almost didn’t want to leave the comfort of the van! His picture taking skills were also amazing. We got so many wonderful family shots along our tour route.
Aiman is an excellent guide, and you can believe all the 5-star reviews. He is well experienced and quite knowledgeable, about the specific sights visited as well as Munich and Germany in general. We made minor modifications to the itinerary and he adjusted travel time and pacing seamlessly. Can’t recommend Aiman highly enough!
What a wonderful day! One of the best private tours we have been on. From the start of the day until the finish Aiman made sure we enjoyed ourselves. The two castles were spectacular, so glad we did this tour. Aiman is very knowledgeable, kind and considerate. Highly recommend this tour!!!!!!
We had a wonderful trip with Aiman. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and very patient with small children. He also took fabulous family photos. Highly recommend.
Aiman was an exceptional host! We had an amazing day trip from Munich to explore the castles. He timed everything perfectly, allowing us to beat the crowds and truly enjoy each stop. He also took us to hidden gems we would've completely missed on a typical tour bus. The whole experience was smooth, relaxing, and a lot of fun — highly recommend!
Aiman was an incredible guide! My family and I had an amazing day touring Bavaria - I highly recommend this tour.
We had a Great Experience with Aiman. We covered everything we wanted and even got a bonus trip to Austria and some beautiful sites.
This was a fantastic day! Our driver was so knowledgeable, kind, respectful, and fun. He knows all the secrets and tips. The sites are stunning and so worth it. The best part is if you book this the driver owns the company so I know you will love it. This was a girls trip and I felt safe the entire time. This tour also has all the tickets included so you just get in the car in the morning from your hotel and you don’t worry about a thing. He had snacks, water and recommendations to eat for lunch. He is super flexible and kind.
We had an amazing day busting Neuschwanstein, Linderhof & Oberammergau — Aiman was an incredible guide. Don’t hesitate- book this tour :)
It was a great experience, sites and views points that were tailored to our needs and interests. Aiman is a great guide and we highly recommend this tour.
Well worth the money. Aiman was a fantastic guide with lots of knowledge and drove very well. Beautiful countryside. Well organised and enjoyable tour.
Aiman is an amazing guide and does a wonderful job taking you thru the day. He has good knowledge of the various sites that we visited.
The perfect way to see so much. Aiman was so knowledgeable, professional and ensured everything about the day went smoothly and was catered to us. Cannot reccomend him highly enough, a lovely young man. Was a magical day.
Fantastic excursion! Aiman was the BEST guide. He was full of information about all of the places we visited and is very flexible with changing things up and showing us additional sites in route.
Amazing tour guide who knew so much about the area and history. We were limited on time in the area and this was absolutely money well spent. He introduced us to areas that other tours will not take you. He was very kind, spoke perfect english and super friendly and accommodating. We made forever memories thanks to him.
Our tour guides knowledge, enthusiasm and passion truly brought our tour to the castles to life. He made everything engaging and ensured everyone was included. I especially appreciated his insider tips, his passion for the places that we visited made our visit to the castles unforgettable.
Driver/guide was informative about area and history English was impecable , friendly and entertaining. Well worth the tour cost!!!
Wonderful trip with knowledgeable and accommodating guide!! Beautiful drive and lovely tour of castle.
Great experience and excellent guide! He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating, with great recommendations!
Fantastic tour! Our guide Aiman was attentive to any and all of our needs and was incredibly knowledgeable. Aiman was a true delight to spend the day with. Do not miss this tour!
A must see tour including the wonderful not to be missed Neuschwanstein Castle. Aimen, our fantastic knowledgeable driver and guide, avoided the queues and got us to beautiful hidden look outs that others failed to know were there. Aimen guided us so that walking was easy and minimal and had arranged lift access to the castle. Huge thank you to Aimen for making the day so memorable!
Aimen went above and beyond expectations! I would highly recommend him for your private tours. We will be sharing his information with friends and definitely use him again!!
5 Star trip. Best way to see the castles and other attractions in the Munich area. Aiman is the best guide/driver we have had. He provided a comfy Mercedes van with snacks, water, phone chargers and even WiFi for your days trip. His knowledge of the attractions is outstanding. Also very flexible as we wanted to do some deviations, which we planned well in advance. Would highly recommend and if back to Munich would use Aiman for all my tour needs.
We had a great day with Aiman. The tour exceeded our expectations. To start, the van was loaded with water and snacks, he was prepared for anything! He is also highly knowledgeable and we were able to see and learn so much. We didn’t feel rushed, we got to see and try many things based on his recommendations, which truly heightened our experience. Needless to say, the castles are stunning, the drive is stunning, and everything along the way is stunning. I highly recommend you book an experience with Aiman for your next trip.
Aiman was an excellent tour guide! My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour and cannot recommend him enough. Aiman was promt to pick us up from our hotel. His vehicle was immaculate and comfortable. Wifi, snacks and drinks were plentiful as well. All throughout our tour, Aiman was able to provide us with the history of what we were to see, he knew the best spots to take pictures and was able to make our day an enjoyable experience overall. He is also a great photographer! The pics he took of us at our stops provide us with the keepsakes that we will treasure in the future. The great thing with booking a private tour is the flexibility to spend more or less time at each stop. Aiman was flexible to tailor our trip with him to ensure that we spend the time we want at the locations we were most interested in. As for the stops themselves, Neuschwanstein was excellent! The drives were scenic and the stops in Fussen and Austria were out of a Bob Ross painting. Linderhoff palace was nice, but if you go int he springtime, it will be seen in all its flowering glory. Our day with Aiman was truly the highlight of our trip to Munich! Do not hesitate to book this tour; it is worth it!
Absolutely amazing experience with Aiman . When you book a private tour one of the thoughts that goes thru your mind would be, "Do I want to spend an entire day with a stranger". "Do they have good information to provide and will they be a good conversationalist" .Aiman hit the ball out of the park. Very personable, great conversationalist, knowledgeable about the area and many other things. Highly recommend Aiman. The entire tour was Great !!
If you are looking to sit back and enjoy your day this is the tour for you. We have done tours in London, all over Italy, and France, and this was by far our best experience. Aiman was the absolute best guide we have ever had. Aiman literally took care of everything. From pick up at our hotel, to water and snacks in the Van, he had everything planned out. We did not have to think about one thing! We learned all about the history of the area, the Castles and about all the little villages. He recommended the best Italian restaurant (La Perla Ristorante Pizzeria) in Füssen, and then showed us all the best spots to take pictures, and gift shop. I cannot recommend this enough!
What a lovely day we had with Aiman! He was very nice and taught us much about the area and extra history on the castles. We happened to go right when it had snowed and it was beautiful. His car is very comfy, well equipped with snacks, chargers and even WiFi! I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking into it for a more personalized experience with a pleasant guide.
We had the pleasure of having Aiman as our tour guide and driver during our whole-day tour, and we couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, he took exceptional care of us, ensuring we were comfortable and well looked after throughout the journey. Aiman’s professionalism and knowledge truly stood out. He shared fascinating insights about the places we visited, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. It was evident he is passionate about his work and genuinely cares about his clients. One thoughtful touch was how he prepared water and snacks for the trip, which was a lifesaver during a long day of exploring. Small gestures like this made the entire experience more pleasant and stress-free. We highly recommend Aiman for anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and caring guide. He turned a good tour into a fantastic one, and we are grateful for his excellent service!
Aimain was fantastic. Great stories and wealth of history. Recommended great restaurant for lunch. This is best way to see the tour
This was an amazing tour of Neuschwanstein Castle, Linderhof Palace and stops in Fussen & Oberamergau. Aiman Soliman was our guide; he is professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, & is the best guide I have had with any tour company. I highly recommend this tour with Aiman.
We thoroughly enjoyed our private tour to Neuschweinstein Castle. Our guide, Aiman, was wonderful. He is so knowledgeable and personable. Even though the day we visited was very foggy and the views limited, he made sure to find a spot later in the day for the perfect photo. He also recommended a great restaurant for lunch in the charming village of Fussen. This was a splurge on our trip and totally worth it!
Fantastic trip! So glad we decided on this private tour. We saw so many amazing sites and had all the flexibility to be on our own schedule. Well worth the money.
Aimon was an amazing guide! He picked us up at our hotel (so appreciated) and started us on our journey in his very comfortable Mercedes van. This was so much more than just touring a couple of castles. He shared history and culture along the way, stopped at several beautiful, scenic places to take pictures, dropped us at Fussen for lunch and gave us ample time to shop. We loved every minute of this tour, including the Haribo Gummy Bears! We highly recommend this tour!
great communication leading up to the event. Aiman was a great source of knowledge about the castles, the area, and Germany in general. he was accommodating of our wants and needs throughout the day, and worked in all the required stops. the vehicle was modern, clean, and provided great amenities. we couldn't have asked for more!
Aiman was a perfect tour guide. Impeccable car, snacks and drinks were wonderful, he was knowledgeable and took beautiful photos, but gave us plenty of time on our own. 100% recommended
This was one of our best experiences of our trip, and we visited 4 countries and 2 continents! It exceeded all expectations and was dream like. Aiman was so knowledgeable and intuitive making sure everything went flawlessly. I recommend this tour to all - you won’t regret it.
