2010 Itinerary
Day 1 - Welcome to Munich
Your Munich / Oberammergau Extension begins at 6:00 PM at the Bayerischer Hof. A transfer is included from Munich Airport or Regensburg to the Bayerischer Hof. If arriving early, you'll have time to explore Bavaria's principal city on your own this afternoon. Please join your Tauck Director this evening for welcome drinks followed by dinner featuring traditional Bavarian fare at the Spatenhaus, adjacent to Munich's opera house.
Meals: Dinner
Lodging: Bayerischer Hof, Munich, Germany
Day 2 - Discover Munich and the Oberammergau Passion Play
Following a city tour of historic Munich with your local guide, set off across the Bavarian Alps to the little village of Oberammergau, whose residents have joined together to produce their world-renowned Passion Play (Passionsspiele) once every decade for nearly 400 years! After lunch at your five-star, chalet-style boutique hotel in the heart of the village, you'll head over to Oberammergau's specially built Passion Play theater to attend a performance of this once-in-a-lifetime event in Tauck's premier seating in Section 1A - the best available. Tauck provides you with an English libretto to enhance your enjoyment of the performance (presented in German), which begins in the afternoon and resumes after a dinner break - during which you'll dine at the Hotel Maximilian.
Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
Lodging: Hotel Maximilian, Oberammergau, Germany
Day 3 - King Ludwig's Linderhof and more of Munich
Bavaria's flamboyant 19th-century ruler, King Ludwig II, patterned Linderhof Palace - his "royal villa" outside Munich - after French King Louis XIV's grandiose Palace of Versailles. You'll definitely see the resemblance today as you depart Oberammergau and travel to Linderhof to tour this opulent palace, complete with its grand staircase, Hall of Mirrors and magnificent gardens. Later, return to Munich to spend the afternoon and evening pursuing what interests you most in this colorful city, with suggestions from your Tauck Director.
