10-day trip in 3 European countries

This 10-day Europe journey started in Bangkok, with an early arrival in Paris, where we spent three days soaking in the charm of the French capital. After Paris, we traveled to Luxembourg and spent time exploring the city before heading into Germany. We continued to Strasbourg, with a day trip to nearby Alsatian gems like Colmar, Eguisheim, Riquewihr, Ribeauvillé, and Kaysersberg. Then, we took the train to Heidelberg for its old town charm, before heading south to Munich. From there, we made a day trip to Neuschwanstein Castle, enjoying the scenic drive through Bavaria. The trip wrapped up with a relaxed final day in Munich before flying back to Bangkok.

Ready for a magical trip through southern Germany? 🚄🌄 Here’s how I combined city vibes and fairy-tale castles on a two-stop adventure: Munich’s historic Marienplatz and the legendary Neuschwanstein Castle in Schwangau. First up, Munich! Take a morning stroll to Marienplatz (Marienplatz, 80331 München, Germany)—it’s open 24/7 and always buzzing, from street musicians to historic architecture. Grab a snack from a nearby bakery and soak up the lively atmosphere. For train lovers, catch a regional DB train towards Füssen. Tip: Sit on the right side for the best country and Alps views! Next, jump off at Schwangau for Neuschwanstein Castle (Neuschwansteinstraße 20, 87645 Schwangau, Germany). If visiting April–Oct, aim for the early 9:00 AM opening—less crowd, epic photos! Admission is €19.80, and it’s worth every cent for the dramatic mountain backdrop and inside tour. Outside, hike up to Mary’s Bridge for panoramic shots! Getting Around: Munich’s public transport is super convenient—use trams and S-Bahn for city sights. For the castle day trip, regional DB trains (buy tickets on trip.com) and buses link everything perfectly. Food Picks: In Munich, the classic pretzel stand in Marienplatz and a local beer hall (feast on sausage and sauerkraut!) are musts. Near Neuschwanstein, grab warm apple strudel at one of the tiny cafés by the ticket office. Pro Tip: Book train tickets in advance for better prices and smoother transfers. Always check castle opening days (closed some holidays). The weather can change fast—layer up, especially near the Alps! #GermanyTrip #MunichMoments #BavariaViews #CastleHunter #Tripdotcom
