Come an join me to one of my favourite tours - to Germany's highest mountain! Included in the tour price is a return transfer from Munich, a traditional lunch and the price for the gondola ticket, which takes us to the summit – the Top of Germany - as close as possible.
Enjoy an exclusive excursion - without other participants - to the plateau of the Zugspitze glacier. The excursion starts in the morning with pick up at your Munich city hotel or private accommodation. Cool drinks and snacks will already be waiting for you in a comfortable SUV vehicle. During the drive, we will have some time to chat and I will be happy to tell you interesting facts about our destinations today.
As soon as we have arrived at the beautiful Eibsee, one of the most beautiful lakes in Bavaria, the new Zugspitz cable car (opened 2017) will take us very close to the highest peak in Germany. From the popular viewpoint, the mountain station at 2,943 meters above the roofs of Germany, you will have breathtaking panoramic views of the beautiful Alpine landscape. During your stay on the plateau you will learn interesting information about the region´s history and its role in World War II - plus you will enjoy a tasty traditional lunch inside the Panorama Lounge 2962!
Back in the valley and on the way towards Munich, we will make a mandatory stop in Garmisch-Partenkirchen - the venue of the 1936 Olympic Games. While walking through the city, you will find plenty of opportunities to buy presents and souvenirs for those who had to stay home.
After a relaxing break in the popular skiing and hiking region of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, we will head back towards Munich - to the agreed starting point or hotel/accommodation!
I am not a professional photographer! However, I will do my best to take nice snapshots (for social media) of our trip.

02/02/2023A wonderful day trip with our very knowledgeable and friendly guide, Sepp. We're delighted to see the third Castle of King Ludwig 2. or, as they called him in Munich... read more - Kini. The castle is a wonderful copy of Versailles and even though unfinished, the furnishings and glitter of the rooms viewed were breathtaking. Fraueninsel was lovely and the church another gorgeous example of Baroque architecture and furnishing. Our lunch was very tasty and the portions quite big. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
