Tickets can be purchased in advance through the official online ticket shop, through some trusted third-party vendors, or in person at the Ticket Center in Hohenschwangau. Same-day tickets are limited and sell out quickly, often by late morning. Phone or email reservations are not available.
Entry to Neuschwanstein Castle is only possible with a guided tour. Tours are offered in English and German (if you need a different language, you can opt for an audioguided tour) and last about 30 minutes. Group sizes are capped at 35 people, and all visitors, including children, require a ticket due to safety regulations.
Photography and filming are strictly prohibited inside the castle. This applies to all rooms and guided tours. Visitors may take photos of the castle exterior, courtyards, and surrounding viewpoints such as Marienbrücke.
The most convenient way to visit the Neuschwanstein Castle from Munich is through a guided tour.
If you want to go by yourself, from Munich, travelers can take a train to Füssen, then continue by bus to Hohenschwangau village. From there, the castle is reachable on foot in 30–40 minutes, by shuttle bus (seasonal), or by horse-drawn carriage. Cars must be parked in designated lots in the village.
