(7 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis)
Munich & Neuschwanstein, Baden-Baden & Alsace

This private luxury tour features the cultural highlights of southern Germany, including dynamic Munich, romantic Neuschwanstein castle, lavish royal palaces, charming villages, top art museums and Baden-Baden, Germany's finest spa town.

Begin in Munich, the dynamic capital of Bavaria. During private touring, explore the highlights of the Old Town. Visit Marienplatz to see the neo-Gothic city hall and its famed Glockenspiel. Stroll interesting shopping streets, see local gardens and browse the Viktualienmarkt outdoor food market. Visit the Frauenkirche—the symbol of the city—and the Beer and Oktoberfest Museum, if desired. Other touring options include the Residenz (the former royal palace) or the Alte Pinakothek art museum. Upon request, Artisans of Leisure can arrange a private tour of the BMW factory and museum or of the Nymphenburg porcelain factory.

One day, take a private excursion into the beautiful Bavarian countryside to visit Neuschwanstein, the fairytale castle built in the 19th century for King Ludwig II. The model for Disneyland's Sleeping Beauty Castle, Neuschwanstein is a romantic vision of towers and turrets that rises out of a rocky hilltop and offers panoramic views of surrounding mountains, lakes and farmland. Also visit nearby Hohenschwangau, the neo-Gothic castle where Ludwig spent his childhood, as well as the Wieskirche (Church in the Meadow), a UNESCO World Heritage Site with spectacular Rococo interiors.

Transfer to Baden-Baden, an elegant spa town in the Black Forest, and stay at a luxurious hotel with a renowned spa and extensive grounds. One day, enjoy a private excursion into nearby Alsace (in France) to visit charming towns such as Strasbourg and/or Colmar and local wineries. During free time in Baden-Baden, enjoy the hotel's many facilities, including a renowned spa and excellent restaurants. Also explore the town's beautiful parks, quaint shops, and excellent museums such as the Museum Frieder Burda.

If desired, Artisans of Leisure can arrange a private tour of cosmopolitan Frankfurt before your departure flight.
