Description:

Discover the countryside south of Munich as you journey to the banks of stunning Lake Chiemsee. Here, glimpse 3 islands; 1 of which boasts King Ludwig II's most illustrious castle, Herrenchiemsee. Admire the charming lakeside views from alluring port towns.

Leave the city behind and journey through stunning Bavarian countryside to Lake Chiemsee. Take the option to boat trip out to the island housing Herrenchiemsee—the largest of Ludwig II's palaces. Seize the opportunity to enter the grounds for a guided tour and admire the ornate architecture and classical gardens that defined King Ludwig's romantic style.

Another short cruise brings you to Fraueninsel—the middle-sized of the 3 islands on the lake. Here, a more modestly constructed Benedictine monastery helps create a pleasant environment on the car-free island. Complete your tour with a journey back to shore and return to Munich refreshed from your time in the Bavarian countryside.
