Day Trips from Munich for Campervan Travelers

Quick summary: Guided day trips from Munich to Neuschwanstein, Linderhof, Berchtesgaden, the Eagle’s Nest and Salzburg are popular alternatives to driving a campervan on every leg.

When does a tour beat driving the RV rental?

When castle tickets are sold out (tours often include them), on Oktoberfest days, and for Salzburg if you’d rather not buy an Austrian vignette.

Can you combine tours and a campervan?
