Munich · ZUGSPITZE & GARMISCH DAY TRIPS

“Although the weather did not cooperate, I still very much enjoyed this trip. Ample seats on the bus, comfortable seats and climate controlled (it was a heat wave so the air was critical), everything was well coordinated from the meeting place to Zugspitze. We almost didn't get to take the train back down but given the weather conditions our guide allowed us to take the train - which was very nice. Totally pleased with the decision to book this trip. If the weather was clear it would have been amazing!Read more”
