Information for tourists

Guided tours

Neuschwanstein Castle can only be visited within a guided tour. We offer guided tours in German and English by our own personnel. Visitors who do not speak one of these languages can make use of our audio guide tours, which are available in Japanese, French, Spanish, Italian, Czech, Slovenian, Russian, Polish, Chinese (Mandarin), Portuguese and Hungarian.
Both kinds of tours last approximately 30 minutes.

You can book the ticket for your guided tour in advance (one day before the desired castle visit at the latest) at the Ticketcenter Hohenschwangau.

In case you would like to book a private guided tour please contact our administrative office.
