Gabrielle_M, Jun 2026

Highly enjoyable and enlightening tour with Dieter

Dieter is a wonderful guide. Knowledgeable as well as obviously skillful in conversation around a historical topic of sensitivity. Really enjoyed his tour, learned a lot that can’t be found in history books. Being a history buff, especially of the World War II era and Hitler days, I found the tour very enlightening and enjoyable. Highly recommend it. Thank you Dieter!

Simeon was a fantastic...

Simeon was a fantastic guide. He was knowledgeable, personable, and managed to make everything so interesting that even our 12-year-old was fascinated, which is no small feat when you’re on a tour that lasts 13 hours! At the end of the day, everyone agreed that we would happily do another long tour — if we could have Simeon as our guide. Can’t recommend him, and this experience, highly enough.

Great Experience

I was in Austria only for 3 full days, and this tour allowed me to see a large part of the country, including Vienna, Alps and Salzburg. Olga and Natasha (our Salzburg guide) were very knowledgeable and organized. I liked beautiful lakes and mountains the best.

The Hills did come Alive

We had a long drive to Salzburg, but the journey was made truly enjoyable by the wonderful stops along the way. Each stop was well chosen and offered something unique, making the travel time feel much shorter and more interesting. Our guides Roman and Eva were exceptional—friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. They shared fascinating information about the history, culture, and landmarks throughout the trip, which added so much value to the experience. Their enthusiasm and expertise kept everyone engaged and made the journey memorable. Overall, this was a fantastic excursion with beautiful scenery, excellent organization, and outstanding guides. I highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Salzburg who wants to enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

Budapest Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna

As good as advertised

The tour was as good as advertised. It is indeed a small group, only 7 of us. Our tour guide Balazs is very knowledgeable and attentive. We were able to stop by most of the top tourist attractions in Budapest. If you have only one day and know nothing about Budapest, this tour is the way to go.

Helen_M, May 2026

The drive from Vienna...

The drive from Vienna through the countryside is a tour in itself. It gives a great context for Vienna in the wider region of Austria. Great rest facilities along the way and an opportunity to see expansive beautiful scenery. More than enough time in Salzburg to see all the sites we expect to see in this part of the world. Timing was excellent. Joseph was an exceptional guide. Professional knowledgeable and a safe driver. One of the best guides.

Hallstatt a beautiful 16th-century village

It is 300kms from Vienna so an 8am departure arriving at approx 1pm at Hallstatt then depart at 4pm back in Vienna at approx 7.30-8pm. It is beautiful even in the drizzly rain. The amazing history of their salt mining can be seen in the objects and displays in the museum.

Vienna: Skip the Line Schönbrunn Palace and Gardens Guided Tour

Kim_T, May 2026

Worth the visit!

My adult daughter and I absolutely loved this tour--and that was due in large part to our guide, Bilijana. She did such an excellent job of filling us in on the history of the Hapsburg Dynasty keeping it simple and easy to follow. Her stories and knowledge were interesting and she took us from room to room sharing many fascinating details. This was easily one of our best tours on this trip. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to get a handle on the royals of Austria as well as information on Austrian life in general there. It's obvious that Bilijana loves what she does and the tourist is the beneficiary of that! Oh, and plan to stop in the Gloriette Cafe atop the hill behind the gardens if you have time after the tour.

We would recommend this tour to all our friends and family back home.

Vienna: Classical Concert in St. Anne's Church (Annakirche)

Mitzi_S, Dec 2025

Wonderful experience

The music was very enjoyable. The church is beautiful as well. Come early to get a better seat. The regular seats are not comfortable because of the kneeling area. The seats on the side are more comfortable. It was not hot nor cold in the regular area. It was a little cooler when I moved to the chair on the side.
