The 80 sq km Chiemsee with its historical, cultural & scenic highlights offers an infinite wealth of unforgettable experiences - look forward to going with your professional and friendly tour guide on an entertaining, informative but above all relaxing discovery tour.
First and foremost, is the largest and most expensive castle Herrenchiemsee of the eccentric fairytale king Ludwig II and the idyllic village of 300 inhabitants on the tiny Fraueninsel. Both there and the mainland, a number of insider tips await you, which will make this excursion - as well as travelling in our new and luxurious/comfortable Mercedes or VW Minivans - an exclusive experience.
Also exclusive is our offer to combine the highlights of Lake Chiemsee with a guided tour in SALZBURG or a trip to the EAGLE'S NEST (11-hour option)
Itinerary
Maria Ramersdorf Kirche (Pass By)
All sights mentioned here are carefully selected recommendations. As this is an exclusive tour, you can always contribute your own suggestions; we are also happy to follow your wishes regarding the length of stay at the individual stops!
Now, however, you can look forward to an eventful, informative but also relaxing trip in our new and luxurious / comfortable Mercedes or VW Minivans - at the side of your friendly and professional tour guide you are in good hands right from the start!
... At the old pilgrimage church of St. Maria Ramersdorf from the 14th century we leave Munich and drive on the highway A8 in a southeasterly direction...
Schloss Wildenwart (Pass By)
In the middle of the idyllic foothills of the Alps only a few kilometres from Lake Chiemsee is the historic castle ensemble Wildenwart.
After the assumption of power by the revolutionary government, the Bavarian royal family, including Ludwig III, met at Wildenwart Castle, which was to become the new home for the Wittelsbach family.
In 1979, Max Herzog in Bavaria, great-grandson of Ludwig III, moved with his family into the castle, which can be visited from the outside.
Prien am Chiemsee
In Prien we board a boat of the Chiemsee fleet, which takes us across the lake to the island Herreninsel (ticket is not included in the tour price, only cash payment possible). Before that, it is worth taking a look at the Gothic-Baroque parish church Maria Himmelfahrt, whose church tower went "crazy" in a spectacular way in the 18th century!
***** Prices Chiemsee ferry (2024): Adults: € 12.60 / Children 6 - 15 years € 6.30 *****
With the oldest still functioning steam tram in the world, you can travel contemplatively from the town center to the harbor in summer - as it did over 135 years ago.
10 minutes
Schloss Herrenchiemsee
Herrenchiemsee Palace was to become a replica of the Palace of Versailles, the residence of the French "Sun King" Louis XIV. For financial reasons, however, the most magnificent and expensive castle of the Bavarian King Ludwig II had to be terminated prematurely. On a 35-minute guided tour, which is well worth seeing, you will visit all completed, but also some unfinished rooms. ***** Skip-the-Line Admission (2024) Adults € 11.00 / Children under 18 years are free) *****
Your admission ticket also grants you free access to the so-called "Old Castle", a former monastery building from the 8th century (!) with overwhelming Baroque furnishings. You will also see some very interesting rooms where Ludwig lived during the construction of the castle, as well as the site of the 1948 Constitutional Convention. Located in the historic building complex, a restaurant offers, among other things, fresh Chiemsee fish and a beer garden with a top view over Lake Chiemsee and its other islands.
2 hours
Fraueninsel im Chiemsee
We continue by boat to the only 15.5 ha "large" island Fraueninsel. Your trained guide will be happy to accompany you on a 30-minute tour of the island, show and explain everything worth seeing, including the over 1000-year-old monastery church, the equally old 'Tassilo-' lime tree, as well as the historic gate hall. The microbrewery "Inselbräu" is ideal for a culinary stop, as well as the numerous stalls of the island fishermen.
1 hour 15 minutes
Gstadt am Chiemsee
Back on the mainland, you can enjoy the most beautiful view over the lake with the Alps in the background from the Malerwinkel in Gstadt. Before that, we will be happy to show you the place where King Ludwig II translated to "his" island on a natural beach. Did you know that a private station was built especially for him on the railway line Munich - Salzburg? We'll show it to you!
25 minutes
Kehlsteinhaus
OPTIONAL (only possible with the 11-hour tour length "XXL-Time credit"): The Eagle's Nest can be reached from May to October with special buses from the Obersalzberg plateau near Berchtesgaden (depending on snow conditions).
The building, enthroned in a spectacular location at over 1,800 m (5,900 ft) above sea level was built - including the 6.5 km long access road - in just 13 months under mostly the most difficult conditions for the workers at the behest of Martin Bormann. From the bus terminus you can reach the original elevator through a 124-meter-long tunnel, which takes you to the 'Kehlsteinhaus', as it is called in German, now operated as a restaurant, after another 124 meters.

Carl was wonderful. Not only did he keep us safe driving on the autobahn, but he made sure that we knew where to go. It was a long day but so enjoyable with his knowledge. Thank you, Carl!
Great Tour

Nice cruise to the island, and the palace was very nice. Took the horse drawn cart to the palace, and had a very nice lunch.
Great day!

Stephen was a fabulous guide for our private trip to Ludwig II third palace and Salzburg. In spite of occasional showers, he got us to the correct ferries and on the next English tour. We had a lovely lunch stop at charming neighboring island. Then, special stops at Sound of Music locations and a walking tour of old town Salzburg - with plenty of history along the way! It was a great day thanks to Stephen! Highly recommend any tour with him!
Private tours rock!!
