The castle was amazing, the place was equally awesome. We didn't manage to find tickets to enter the castle but it's said that the castle looks better from outside than on the inside. I would say winter isn't the best time to visit the castle, the bridge which has the best view of the castle is closed for the winter. And the approach roads are extremely slippery, one would need hiking shoes to be confident on the trail.

This is a beautiful place. The visit to the castle is stunning but not the place not thing to do here. There are many walking and hiking trails on the Castle grounds. When the weather is nice, take the hike out to the bridge. You won’t be disappointed by the view. The people are friendly and take time to visit one of the delicious restaurants. You can’t go wrong with any of them. They are just down the hill, walking distance, from the castles. Worth the visit but give yourself the whole day.

My friend and I went on a tour of the castle and we rode a bus up and a horse carriage on the way down. The best part was finding the bridge and seeing the amazing view of the castle in the distance. Our tour guide, Stephen was great, he told us a story about a dragon which was cute and he was very detailed in his answers. You are not allowed to take any photos inside the castle and there was a water closet right when you walk inside and that is the one you should use or you will be waiting until the end of the tour after the gift shop. We had a timed ticket and needed to scan it in a hurry. I did find the inside part of the tour to be very rushed which was highly disappointing.

I don't recommend the tour inside the castle. The tour was only in German and it is really short and quick you barely have time to appreciate the rooms. The best thing to do is check if the Marienbrücke is available and take a great view of the castle.

Neuschwanstein Castle is an absolute gem! The castle tours are outstanding, offering a fascinating glimpse into its rich history and breathtaking architecture. But the magic doesn't stop there—the surrounding area is equally captivating. You'll find an array of excellent restaurants serving delicious local cuisine, perfect for a post-tour meal. For those who enjoy outdoor activities, the hike uphill to the castle is amazing, offering stunning views of the surrounding landscape. If you're not interested in or sure about the steep hike, no worries! You can take a charming horse and buggy ride to the castle instead, making the journey just as delightful. Don't miss the chance to visit the serene, picturesque lake nearby, which adds an extra touch of tranquility to your visit. Overall, Neuschwanstein Castle and its surroundings offer a perfect blend of culture, nature, and relaxation.
