Doing what: Overnight Munich to Frankfurt - Romantic Road, Rothenburg
We were disappointed in the amount of time actually on the Romantic Road - probably like 25% only. We thought we were going through Wuzurburg and ended up at shopping mall - Wertheim Village wainting 20 minutes to pick up passages and then went straight to Frankfurt. We do not believe we received what we had been sold and paid for.

Not enough quality time spent at the Castle. Lunch was very ordinary.

Mainly a tour on your own - More of a pick up and drop off with scheduled transportation. Not a guided tour. Great sceneries enroute. Hotel in Rothenburg was average.

Doing what: Full Day Tour to Rothenburg
We enjoyed the time we spent in Rothenburg. It is truly a beautiful little town filled with character. However, the trip there and back to Frankfurt was not very enjoyable. We rode on a full sized bus with only 10 or so people. It made a few long stops which really made the trip drag out. The driver spoke very little English and we were not sure what was really going on. Be sure to go to Rothenburg, but you might want to find another way to get there!

Fantastic trip. Great scenery, loved the castles. Best part was the medieval towns. Loved the stay in the Mueler hotel.

Doing what: Four Day Munich to Frankfurt - Romantic Road, Linderhof, Hohenschwangau, Neuschwanstein
Very poorly organized. We expected a four day trip with one bus, a group, and one guide. We got a one-day trip that we had to switch to another bus and take a taxi to another town for our hotel. We never received "vouchers" for the different hotels and consequently we had to plea for acceptance of our one 4-day voucher which most were not happy to accept. We were by ourselves and had to find our way each day....not at all what we expected. And on the first day, we were taken to a one-day tour, the only ones with luggage. Because it was bad weather we tried to take a bus from the castle to the tour bus, the bus was overpacked, we could not get on, and consequently the tour bus left several of us stranded in Neuschwanstein, hours away from Munich, where the bus was returning. We were switched to a different company for the last day, trip to Heidleberg, and that day was great. The tour guide was excellent. All the hotels were good and accommadting in spite of the fact that we did not have the "correct vouchers." I would NOT recommend this tour....it was badly organized and we could never reach anyone by phone for assistance because it was the weekend or after hours. And I will not recommend any company that would leave foreigners stranded in another city---I point out, the tour guide did NOT say "do not take the bus back from the castle" and why in the world would she have scheduled our tour for 3pm if the bus had to leave at 4:30? Very poorly done!

The tours of the castles were good. Would have liked more history on Munich. Our stay in Hohenschwangau was lovely. Very little information was given on the towns as we drove up the romantic road. Would have liked a tour guide or at least a pamphlet with historical information on each town we visited and a map of each town we stopped in.

This was a great tour. The Nightwatchman's Tour of the town was brilliant and very amusing. Wuld recommend to anyone. Rothenburg is a lovely town.

Great trip! It was mainly a tour on your own with set transportation schedule and hotel arrangements made. Night watchman tour was great!

The trip was well planned and delivered. I am satisfied about the arrangement in general, and found the tourist attractions matching my expectations, so it is a good trip worth the value and travel involved. I have the following comments regarding the travel arrangement I experienced , they may be useful for the future improvement of this type of tour: 1. The full package of itinerary and vouchers are received too late, on the second stop, I prefer to receive it before the start of the tour, so I'll have more understand on how it will work, and less uncertainty. 2. The bus drivers have different level of service standard. The driver from the Rothenburg to Frankfurt is really professional and helpful, although only two small stops, but he advised us of the where about of the closest rest rooms etc, very friendly. But I have concerns about the driver from Hohenschwangau to Rothenburg. Firstly, his bus is very noisy and vibrating a lot, the whole trip is not comfortable, the bus clearly needs service check to solve the excessive noise and vibrating problem, second, when the bus arrived in Rothenburg, he is busy calling the office to report the bus, and did not pay attention to call taxi to pick up me. On that day, I waited 20-30 minutes, no taxi appeared to pick me to the hotel, and the driver refused to answer my question about the taxi, it is very unpleasant experience. Finally, I called the taxi company with the help of a local person to request a taxi, and after the call, a taxi arrived finally. I found the driver should at least contact the taxi company to acertain the taxi arrival.

Long bus rides and few stops in-between. If I had known what this was I would have rented a car and done it on my own. The only good thing about the tour was the hotel stays.

We were very disappointed. We returned early by catching a train back to Frankfurt. Expected a guided tour. Not to be left to our own devices.

Doing what: Full Day Tour to Rothenburg
When I received my package of info and it said 'unaccompanied' tour I was afraid it was just bus transportation. I didn't realize the bus driver would narrate the trip and that we would stop at small towns along the way. Rothenburg was great and well worth the trip. Four hours was not nearly enough time to spend there but if you only have one day to spend this is a great way to do it.

Not quiet what i expected. The tour takes you down the "romantic route" and stops very quickly at a few cities along the way and then ends in Rothenburg. Rothenburg is lovely but not a must see if time is limited.
