Join me on a personal journey through Bavaria's fairy tale castle country! From my first tour bus experience to becoming a castle regular, I'll share the real story behind King Ludwig II's magnificent palaces - including the cheesecake tradition that started it all.

Discover what it's really like to visit Neuschwanstein, Linderhof, and the hidden gems like Mittenwald and Oberammergau. I'll give you the practical tips, pronunciation guides, and insider secrets from someone who's made the trip three times - each one revealing new layers of Bavarian magic.

With these castles newly designated as UNESCO World Heritage Sites in July 2025, learn how Bavaria is revolutionizing tourism while preserving fairy tale dreams for future generations.

Video version with photos and castle footage coming to YouTube next week! For stunning visuals of all these locations, subscribe to Global Citizen Travels on YouTube and see the magic for yourself.

Perfect for conscious travelers planning their own Bavaria adventure or anyone who loves authentic European travel stories.
