BOOK FOR ONLY ONE PERSON! THE VIATOR TICKET WILL COVER 1-5 PEOPLE! Hello, I have been taking Tours to Neuschwanstein and the other places for 15 years, I actually lived in Oberammergau for 15 years I don´t think that there are many native speaking English Tour Guides with more experience of Oberammergau than myself, I lived there as a waiter and Bar Landlord for 15 years with 3 Passion Play Seasons. Unlike some Tour Guides I try to sort myth from legend, the Passion Play was not because Oberammergau was spared the horror of the Plague in 1633, quite the opposite, it was devastated. I hope to see you very soon! Regards, Chris Edwards LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO TAKE A BUS!
