DAY 1 Arrive Munich

September 01, 2015 (Hotel T.B.D.)

Arrival in Munich Airport and Transfer to Hotel by Taxi To Be Determined For your arrival in Munich we will provide information on the customs and passport procedures. We will also provide advice on taking a taxi to your hotel, including an estimate of the cost and time of the ride to your hotel. We will also provide some very basic directions for taking rail service into central Munich to save on the taxi fare.

Included: Arrival and transfer advice. Not Included: Taxi fare (about 65 EUR)

Self Guided Visit to Munich’s Altstadt Afternoon/Evening Munich boasts a large old town (Altstadt) with many beautiful historic buildings. Sometimes called the world’s largest village, it is a perfect place to wander. You will discover many Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque buildings, as well as several stunning examples of modern architecture. Pleasant cafes, beer halls, cozy restaurants, and great shopping all add to the charming atmosphere. The heart of the Altstadt is the Marianplatz. This historic square is home to the New Town Hall and has been the center of Munich since the Middle Ages. The New Town Hall features a famous Glockenspiel clock tower, which at 11 A.M. and noon sends forth 32 life-sized figures to reenact Bavarian history.

A golden bird chirps 3 times to mark the end of the display. Nearby is also the massive Frauenkirche Cathedral. This Gothic church can hold over 20,000 worshippers and a climb to its lofty bell tower affords a breathtaking view of the city and, in good weather, the nearby Alps.

DAY 2 Munich

September 02, 2015 (Hotel T.B.D.)

Tour of the Residence Palace Morning The Munich Residenz was the seat of government for Bavaria’s Dukes and Kings from 1508 to 1918. Originally a medieval castle, it was transformed over the centuries into a beautiful palace. Today it is open to the public and you can explore its magnificent interiors, numerous courtyards, and elegant garden. The living quarters of the royal family have been transformed into a museum which provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of Kings and Queens. In the treasury museum you can also see the many precious jewels and great works of art which Bavaria’s rulers collected.

Stroll through the English Garden Afternoon The English Garden is one of Europe’s largest parks; in fact it is larger than New York’s Central Park. While it is called the “English Garden” after the style of the park, it was actually designed by an American, and is now a symbol of the very Bavarian city of Munich. The park is a perfect place to escape the city for a long stroll, where you can enjoy the natural scenery and the people watching. You can even enjoy a refreshing swim in the river Eisbach, which flows through the middle of the park, or rent a paddle boat for a cruise on Lake Kleinhesseloher.

When you are ready for some refreshment, you can find several large beer gardens in the park, where you can mix with the locals and enjoy some of Munich’s famous brews.

The Hofbräuhaus, Munich’s Famed Beerhall Evening The Hofbräuhaus is Munich’s most famous beer hall, which in fact, makes it the world’s most famous beer hall. The Hofbräuhaus was founded as the Bavarian king’s royal brewery over 400 years ago. In the beer hall you and up to 1,300 other revelers will sit on long wooden benches, many of them over a hundred years old themselves. Musicians will play Bavarian polkas and the atmosphere is only made more festive by the waiters and waiters dressed in traditional garb, balancing 5

trays filled with huge liter-sized beer steins. With all that beer, you will need something to fill your stomach as well, but luckily there is plenty of hearty and filling Bavarian cuisine to choose from as well.

DAY 3 Munich

September 03, 2015 (Hotel T.B.D.)

Guided Full-Day Bus Excursion to the Neuschwanstein Castle Full Day Inspiration for the Disney Castles, numerous fairy tales, and countless dreamers, the Castle of Neuschwanstein is probably the most famous castle in the world. Perched on a peak in the foothills of the Alps, the setting provides the perfect backdrop to the spiraling towers and turrets of the castle. On this full day excursion, you will not only visit this amazing castle, but also another fantastic creation of its builder, King Ludwig II of Bavaria. In his Linderhof Palace you will discover an elegant palace surrounded by a beautiful park. You will learn about how the shy, reclusive, and eccentric (some even say mad) king built the castle and palace to escape society and pursue his favorite passions – such as Wagner’s operas. Your trip will also include a stop to the charming Bavarian village of Oberammergau. Oberammergau is home to a famous Passion Play, staged only once each ten years, which draws visitors from around the world.

THIS IS NOT A PRIVATE TOUR Included: Cost of the guided tour and bus transportation. Not Included: Entry into individual sites (23 EUR per person)

DAY 4

September 04, 2015

Depart Munich

Visit to the Deutsches Museum Morning The Deutsches Museum (i.e., the German Museum) is the world’s largest museum of science and technology. It is located on a small island in the River Isar, which flows through central Munich. The museum’s vast and fascinating collection is spread out among 40 different exhibitions. You will encounter examples of technology stretching across humanity’s long history, from a reproduction of pre-historic cave paintings, to the laboratory where the atom was split.

Self-Arranged Taxi Transfer to the Munich Airport To Be Determined Munich taxis are generally reliable and honest, so taking a taxi is cheaper than a pre-arranged transfer. Your hotel will be happy to arrange a pick up for you. If you are picked up three hours prior to departure, you should have time to catch your flight. If you are leaving during rush hour, you may want to budget an extra fifteen minutes or so.

Included: Advice on taking a taxi and basic advice on taking the train to the rail station TAXI FARE IS NOT INCLUDED
