Driver picked up at the hotel punctually at 715am in small van. Was dropped off at albertina museum and stood in the cold for more than 30 mins before we were told to board the big bus. Could have allowed those who arrived first to board the big bus.

Easy drive - Sofia gave us great information. The stops were planned very well. The bus was a bit warm for us despite asking the driver to turn the heat down. All minor

Sophia was our tour guide, she was very educational with the historical background of locations. Make sure to pack a snack and drinks as the stops can get expensive! Followed her advice for a smooth day and had a great time! Would recommend taking the boat ride at the end of your as it is a relaxing way to end the trip.

Incredible experience! Dragon drove us safely back and forth and Lily was a wonderful tour guide with so much knowledge. It is a long day of travel but there’s enough stops in between to rest, eat, use the bathroom etc. There was no sky walk but we didn’t miss it. There was so many opportunities for photos and so many great views. The boat ride was wonderful. A slower pace so if you’re hesitant about feeling sick, I wouldn’t worry about it. Don’t get off at the first stop, take the boat to Halstatt and walk through the small village. Bring euro as most places don’t take card in the village. My dad & I enjoyed this tour very much. We’ll remember it forever!

The trip was very smooth and pleasant. We took many pictures of Hallstatt. The problem we had was before the trip. We booked the trip with the pickup at one of the hotel listed by you. Yet we were not picked up because we were told we did not request it. By the way the ticket does show the pickup location which was specified during the reservation process. So what was the issue here?

The guide, Dasha was very helpful and told us many interesting facts. She is fun and has light hearted humour! Definitely wonderful experience and would recommend 1000%. Just make sure to stay quiet and listen and be on time because it is a very tight schedule and you definitely don't want to miss any of it!! <3
