Per one customer who booked the Innsbruck Places Must See + Swarovski, Car + Driver + Local Guide, "Alex was our guide (6 of us) and he was fantastic! We saw so much, he is so knowledgeable, we almost forgot how HOT it was outside. We did some walking, lots of driving. He blasted a/c! Olympic ski jump was very cool. We even saw a skier training! They wet track and off he goes ... so insanely steep ... Swarovski was fun and we saw gorgeous costumes that stars wore. Saw a performer do a water act in a very small outdoor 'urn.' Imperial Palace - walked around gorgeous grounds, lots of history there."
