A wonderful journey into... - A wonderful journey into the Bavarian Alps. Even with sub-par weather we were able to make the trek to the top and experience all the wonders of the mountains. Only disappointment ... and nothing to do with the tour ... the crossing point to Austria was unavailable due to the closing of the Austrian ski season ... Sven, our guide, was wonderful.

Mt Zugspitze - Being on the highest mountain in Germany is certainly worth the trip. It was beautiful great views from the bus on your way to garmisch. We took the cable car up and the glacier cable to eibsee and spent some time on the glacier then took the cograil train down. Had a very good guide

Breathtaking - Come have a Beer on the highest point in Bavaria. Beautiful view of the lake below near Garmisch and see across the top of the Alps. Truly a breathtaking view. Take the cable car up and then the mountain train down from the ski lifts. Nice in the spring but magnificent in the winter!

Such a great day tour! - Sven was our tour guide-very personable and knowledgeable!! We had such a great day with spectacular views and even did a little sledding! Depending on the time you come, be sure to bring warm clothes! It’s chilly up there, but there is plenty of space to hang in the heat as well.

Recommended day tour if visiting Munich! - What a great day! First proper time seeing snow and what a day to do it, we were lucky that there was fresh snow (surprising for September).
