    Just a bus ride
    I took this tour to show my father in law around, who was visiting from out of town. We took the express tour, which was fine as it hit the most important sights, but the audio guide was basically non existent. Since it’s a prerecorded guide, I expected it to provide information on all sights we passed, but instead it turns on randomly and half of the sights didn’t get mentioned. We could have just taken the trolley instead.

    A great day out from Munich
    The tour runs like clockwork. Our guide and our choffeur, Hannae and Joseph, knew exactly what to do and what to advise at every stop. The history behind the castles and the castles themselves are truly fascinating. A great day indeed.

    Beautiful day
    We enjoyed our day! It was beautiful and Nancy, our tour guide, did an exceptional job with clear directions and check ins. (I would suggest for the bus driver- especially those of us upstairs on a hot day- to not automatically shut off the engine when parked as it got really hot upstairs. He was always kind though & turned it back on when asked. Also- perhaps ask passengers to close the curtains on a sunny day when we leave the bus for a tour. It will help with heat when we return)

    Absolutely incredible!
    Absolutely incredible! Our guide Elisabeth was very knowledgeable about the entire visit to the eagles near and Berchtesgaden and the surrounding area. The scenery from Munich was incredible and very enjoyable. Tour group was about 50 people. Not horrible at all and we had plenty of time to explore the area. Luckily the weather was perfect so we could really take in all of the beauty. Definitely worth it!

    Amazing tour with Ms Deyse
    The tour with Ms Deyse was amazing with plenty of time for exploring. My little 2 year old still remembers the trip until today. The tour was very well done. The drive to Neuschwanstein was beautiful. Ms Deyse, Luca says hi! Thank you so much!

    En enjoyable day for all ages
    It is a long day, but definitely worth it, aside from the castles which are a must see it was great to see some of the German countryside and villages along the way. Make sure you take cash with you, because if you want a drink or an ice-cream most of the places only accept cash. Definitely pay the extra 3 euros to catch the shuttle to the bridge first and then walk down after you’ve done the castle tour.

    Fascinating despite the weather
    Amazing views, lovely tour guide (Lotta), fantastic lunch. We were unlucky with the weather and the queuing to get into the lift on the way down was in no way organised- people were jostled around and skipped with no one from the site in charge. This wasn’t the fault of the tour company but it did put a dampener on things. Still very much a worthwhile experience. Thanks for the schnapps to warm us up Lotta! The tour of the documentation centre is very interesting and suitable for all ages from older kids upwards.

    Neushwanstein Castle Tour - Grayline 1988
    It was an excellent experience. At the start there is red carpet waiting for you as you enter the coach. Signifying the premium experience. The bus has single seats and food and refreshments stocked. We had Jackie as our tour guide and Vladi as our driver. They were a wonderful team. Jackie gave much needed information before arriving to the stops. Vladi drove us around and offered refreshments during stops. Everything ran smoothly. I would definitely recommend booking the tour with this company.

    Berchtesgaden - definitely worth a visit!
    Guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Great experience. Due to road closure we could not visit Eagle's Nest and that was disappointing (due to no fault of the guide or tour operator).

    Fantastic trip with a fantastic guide
    We traveled with Elisabeth as guide. She is a fantastically good guide: Enormously knowledgeable, really committed and someone who went into the job wholeheartedly. She made sure that everyone had a good time, was available all the time and with her knowledge of everything from who lived where in Munich, to in-depth historical knowledge of the Third Reich, she made the trip a realt interesting experience. Elisabeth took us to the Eagle Nest, to the Berghof and to Berchtesgaden. The trip was far more substantial than we thought in advance. Definitely worth the money!

It was €59 for a 24hr family ticket to the orange route. Pretty expensive;the buses aren't very regular and dont run very late. The ones we got on were clean and had plenty of space when we got on though.
The commentary is pretty bland and not especially interesting.
Nymphenberge palace was a good stop. It was beautiful.
I think the stop near Deutsches museum is shut. The location of the stops aren't very clear.

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent experience on our Orange Route tour. We appreciate your comments and apologize for any inconvenience you encountered. We understand that the price of €59 for a 24-hour family ticket may seem high, especially if the buses are not as frequent or run as late as you expected. We are continuously reviewing our pricing and scheduling to provide better value and convenience for our customers. It's good to hear that the buses you traveled on were clean and had plenty of space. However, we regret that you found the commentary bland and uninteresting. We will review our audio content and consider ways to make it more engaging and informative for our passengers. We are glad that you enjoyed the stop at Nymphenburg Palace. It is indeed a beautiful location and one of the highlights of our tour. We apologize for the unclear locations of the stops and any confusion caused by the closure of the stop the Deutsches Museum. We will work on improving the clarity of our stop locations and provide updated information to avoid any inconvenience in the future. Your feedback is valuable to us, and we will use it to make necessary improvements to our service. We hope you will consider giving us another chance to provide you with a better experience on your next visit.

Loved all the sites we were able to see. Buses run about every 1/2 hour. We took the extended tour to see the sites outside of the city center and loved it.

The starting point of this particular Hop-on Hop-off Tour was very hard for us to find. We haven't had this problem with other tours. When we finally found it, we had to take the last tour of the day. We had purchased the grand tour. On the second portion of the tour, we were the only ones on the bus. The driver(who was not friendly to us at all when we got on) spent the ENTIRE time yelling loudly on his cell phone while we were trying to listen to the pre-recorded tour. It was really annoying and quite strange behavior.

We booked the 2 hour tour as it was our first time in Munich..I have been on numerous city tours and on all previous trips trhe bus stopped at each of the locations on the tour but on this trip the bus only stopped at the Olympic Park..We wanted to get off the bus at the English Gardens but the bus did not stop there but simply continued to the end of the tour.We were disapponted but decided later in the day to take another trip to visit the Gardens.This time we confirmed at the kiosk as to the last bus time and were advised that it was 1600 and the bus would be at the English Gardens at 1615 - 1620.The bus was not going to stop once again and there did not appear to be a bell to let the driver know but we went down and managed to get off at the stop.We confirmed with the driver the time of the last bus and the driver confirmed the same time.We visited the Gardens and made a point of returning to the stop by 1615..However no bus arrived .We waited 20 minutes but still no bus.As tourists we did not know the city but ended up having to make our way on foot back to the city centre which took about 25 minutes.Extremely disappointing and I would certainly not recommend using this company's tour bus in future.The following day we complained at the kiosk and were offered anothe trip but it was our last day and declined.

This is mediocre BUT it took us out of the city and gave some background to the surroundings. Taped content which was OK. But there is nothing more than the taped content.

This tour did not meet expectations and wasn't worth the 28 euros that I paid. The main problem was that the audio commentary wasn't synchronized with the actual tour and the announcer was describing stuff we weren't seeing. Also, in the middle of the circuit around the city, we stopped for about 30 minutes on a side street for no apparent reason, a waste of sightseeing time. I'm not a big fan of these hop-on hop-off tours in general, although they can be a good orientation to the city when you want to take note of the places you'd like to come back to. This was just a useless waste of time and money.

I do these in most big cities I visits it’s a great way to get the lay of the land- see things you wouldn’t normally and choose the ones you want to get off and explore. The Munich one has two routes and shows all the highlights. My father was with us and has mobility issues, he had no trouble getting on and off the bus and was able to see way more than if he were trying to walk.

The start of the trip is supposed to be noon but ended up at 1:30 due to the costume parade. There was no notification or information on what was the plan for a known event.
Some of the drivers were not very pleasant.
The online code had to be swapped for tickets at a booth near the buses. I was given a digital confirmation but was being asked for a QR code. The booth attendant needed to be convinced before trying the digital code which worked.
Overall the process of getting on was not very smooth.
