Beautiful day - The beauty was undeniable. We enjoyed coco, a hike, sledding and a bit of history. For us the tour could’ve been about an hour shorter.

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!

Beautiful views - Our family loved this tour. It was a long drive from Munich but the countryside was beautiful. The gondola ride was cool but not everyone gets the full window view, so if you have smaller children, you'll need to try to maneuver them to a window. The time up top was adequate to enjoy the view, which was amazing. We would have like some time down at the base to explore the beautiful lake.
