A nice day in the Wachau valley

Kenichi_T, Sep 2024

Our hiking was blessed with a nice weather. Karin takes us to off-the-path trails with great views. There are lots of different fruits that we could have a taste. She was an awesome guide!

Amazing experience!

David_G, Apr 2023

After a week of bus tours, museums and castles, this trip was a great change of scenery. Karin was amazing, guiding us on an incredible hike and allowing us to soak up the local character of the Bavarian countryside. Highly recommend and will definitely do again!

Response from Host, Apr 2023

Dear David, thanks for taking the time to write this lovely review. It was a pleasure meeting you and your daughter and showing you the treasures of the beautiful Wachau Valley. I hope to see you around another time! Take care! Karin
