This half day tour is well worth the cost. This is one of the most picturesque places I have ever been too!! The tour guide was very friendly and informative and the coach ride there was very comfortable. I would definitely book this again!

Try to take a window seat as there is plenty to see and photograph . Driver was very chatty and informative. It is quite a ling drive for the short visit to the town. I would advise not to also take an afternoon trip as well as the time on the bus is quite long. The sound of music tour also drives the first part of the road to Halstatt.

Beautiful setting and definitely recommended, especially during the not so busy months. The trip fare was basically the coach journey, plus the tour guide giving some basic facts on a very monotone voice, which was great if you were an insomniac! You might be better off (as a group) to hire a car, which would give you more flexibility. Lastly, neither TripAdvisor nor the tour operators told us the funicular was out of action until we got there.

On time and professional bus driver. Lots of great information/knowledge about Austria from our tour guide Connor. Tour gave us lots of time to explore on our own in Hallstatt. Beautiful place and a beautiful drive with autumn colors. Would definitely recommend this.

We enjoyed and appreciated to driver and guide for our visit. They provided a safe, pleasurable, and informative ride to and from Hallstatt. Check in was easy and convenient. We would highly recommend this service so you can just enjoy the town and it's beauty.

Our guide, an older Austrian gentleman, was very knowledgeable. It was a bit difficult to understand him at times. Not sure he mentioned his name, but he did a good job, as did the bus driver. Well organized tour, punctual. Beautiful area, but way too many tourists at once, encroaching private property, etc. It was embarrassing the way some behaved. I wouldn’t return solely for that reason.
