We are planning on taking public transportation from Bled to Munich after our RS Central Europe tour ends. Looked at possibly getting a car (Uber?) or taxi hire from Bled to Villach (about 45min), and then train from Villach to Munich Centrale. Any who have done, is this the best way?
Any other ideas or suggestions? Thank you.

Back in 2015 I took a bus in the opposite direction, from Munich to Ljubljana. I don't know how the travel time by bus compares to other ways of getting to Munich, including your idea of connecting from some sort of private driver to the train in Villach.
Quite a few posters here have used a GoOpti shuttle to get to and from Slovenia. I don't know whether GoOpti serves Munich, but it's worth checking. I haven't read any negative comments on this forum about GoOpti. As I understand it, the company offers both private shuttles on your preferred schedule and less-expensive shared shuttles at their chosen times, which I think you don't find out about very far in advance. Perhaps Villach is a destination served by GoOpti even if Munich is not.
I wonder whether there will be other tour members trying to get to Munich on the same day you are--people with whom you could split the cost of private transportation.

You can get a train from Bled Jezero, or Lesce-Bled to Villach and connect to the train to Munich.

Hi. No need for separate transportation to Villach. Just take easy 10 minute bus from one of two stops in Bled to the Lesce-Bled station, then train from there to Munich; either with one connection, or it looks like there is a train around noon that is direct.
