Quick answer
The short answer. Under $50 buys the city itself: the bus, the Old Town walks, the bike tours, two museum tickets. $50–100 buys a full day at Neuschwanstein or in Salzburg, the bus with the Allianz Arena, or a palace tour. $100–200 buys the vans to the Alps, the rickshaw and a private local host. Above $200 there are eleven listings in all, six of them private. The sightseeing tours proper start at $25.

The lowest price is the Deutsches Museum entry ticket at $18, 4.6 across 902 reviews; that is a museum ticket. The cheapest sightseeing tours are the two Old Town walks at $25.
Two private Neuschwanstein days at $616: one with castle entry, nine hours, 5.0 across 24 reviews, and one with Linderhof, nine and a half hours, 4.9 across 59 reviews.
$27 is the price the listing shows; its name offers a one-day or a two-day ticket. Check the listing for the two-day price. 4.3 across 4,805 reviews, and it lists Free cancellation.
