Review of the Salzburg day trip from Munich by train, covering sights, guides, free time, costs, delays, and practical booking tips.
“I mean it was just kind of unfortunate that it took us literally 5 and 1/2 hours to get to Salisbury because of the trains. So literally we said half the tour just getting there. Kind of had no options. Had to stay with a group an extra hour. Not getting back to Munich till after 8:00. So just a little disappointed and the fact that that actual tour in Salzburg was about 20 minutes.”
Review of the Dachau Memorial Site half-day tour from Munich, with train travel, sensitive guides, practical tips, value, and what to expect.

Review of the Munich to Eagle’s Nest and Berchtesgaden day trip, with practical advice on weather, costs, history, timing, and what to expect.
“Very good, informative trip. The museum was great and walking through the underground tunnel system was fascinating. Beware that if the weather is bad, you can’t go up to the Eagle’s Nest, which was a major disappointment, but not the tour company’s fault since they are focused on safety. They made up for it with extra time in Berchtesgaden, a beautiful medieval town.”

“I managed to get separated from the tour, BUT the communication after that happened to get me back home safely was amazing! Even though I missed the last leg of the tour I was still able to do things and find things. I caught maybe 80% of the tour and it was fabulous.”
Review of the Königssee and Berchtesgaden salt mine day trip from Munich, with boat ride details, costs, timing, tips, and honest drawbacks.
“Thanks to Hanae (the guide) and Philip (bus driver) for such an amazing day! I think our guide exceeded all expectations, not only was she sharing information with us but she also cared about each member, paid attention to us sticking together, answered questions in personal conversations (I asked a few history things for example during the boat ride), she was very approachable and nice to be around. When I was a little late after the salt mine shop (they couldn’t find my photo at first), she waited for me, picked me up and led to the bus. There was no drama or negativity and I think everyone enjoyed the…”
A boat, a castle, a waterfall or a very long lunch.
