Schloß Neuschwanstein
I have taken student groups to Germany for many years now, and I always look forward to showing my students Munich. Due to its thoughtfully designed public transportation system, getting to Munichs many terrific attractions is wonderfully easy and convenient. Always included in the itinerary are the Pinakothek der Moderne, Dachau, and Neuschwanstein, all with guided tours. We also see the city first hand with a Mikes Bikes tour, which is much better for getting a feel for the city than a bus tour.
We enjoy a dinner at the historic Donisl and also eat in the Augustiner Keller in the Biergarten. With regards to accomodation, there are many hotels to choose from, but I have been in particular very pleased with Hotel Monaco, due to its location near the Hauptbahnhof, kind service, reasonable pricing, cheery rooms and excellent beds.

The breakfast buffet offers a fine variety of fresh meats, cheeses, breads and juices, and quite importantly, the coffee is good, too. Overall a really good value with a staff that pays attention to your experience.
