Füssen is an ideal starting point for visiting the world-famous
royal castles of Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau, only
four kilometres away. Both of these castles can only be viewed
as part of regular tours conducted throughout the day and
offered in German, English and other foreign languages. The
admission tickets should be purchased or booked in advance
through the Ticket Centre in the village of Hohenschwangau.

Füssen Tourismus supplements the castle tours with a tour
service for groups. Although our guide is not allowed to conduct
tours inside the castles, (s)he can be of help in fetching the
admission tickets, accompanying the group to Neuschwanstein
and/or Hohenschwangau Castle and to the viewing points
"Jugend" and "Marienbrücke" and providing additional background
information on the castles, the Bavarian royal family
and their fondness for the Königswinkel, or King's Nook. If
requested, a detour to Ludwig II's favourite spot on the Alp
Lake, the so-called "Pindarplatz", is possible.
