A real Bavarian experience!

Published on Dec, 2024

If you look beyond the amazing city of Salzburg and old town, you’ll find a beautiful countryside full of small villages and picturesque landscapes. Our experience was led by Patrick and Manfred. Both natives of Salzburg, Patrick provided all of the history of the region and sights. He kept the attention of my three teenage boys which is no small accomplishment. Manfred expertly handled the driving while providing some additional details and personal experiences. Our family had an amazing experience seeing small village life, viewing actual Sound of Music locations and walking through the beautiful town of Hallstatt! A once in a lifetime experience was delivered by Patrick and Manfred! Thank you for the incredible experience!

Best private tour service in Salzburg

Published on Nov, 2024

Our guide Patrick was absolutely amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable, and asked about our interests. Service was beyond perfection. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Worth every penny. Would definitely use again if opportunity presented itself.

Wonderful Day in Lake district with exceptional driver guide

Published on Oct, 2024

Patrick picked us up at our hotel in a very clean van and expertly navigated through traffic and narrow village roads, all while providing expert personable conversation about the area. He took us through his childhood town, explained history, culture and natural facts in a pleasant manner. The "secret" stops for lake views were spectacular. I was especially pleased that he anticipated my love of farm animals and made some extra stops to indulge me. A wonderful day overall - not to be missed if you need an intelligent and thoughtful guide in Austria.

This is a perfect trip for visiting Hallstatt and driving along the Lake District.

Published on Sep, 2024

I couldn’t recommend this tour enough. We had a great time visiting Hallstatt and learning more about the local history. Patrick was an outstanding tour guide and our driver was excellent. We certainly will be using this private tour for future visits to the area.

Family Trip

Published on Aug, 2024

Lena and Patrick were amazing! Very friendly and knowledgeable. We loved how they were able to speak from experience since they grew up in the surrounding area! While it was raining in Hallstatt, the trip was still enjoyable with a wonderful lunch by the water, exploring the town, and lovely ferry ride (declined skywalk due to low cloud coverage).
