Outstanding day essence of Austria - Wonderful day in Austria. If you have limited tíme and would like to see and explore as much as possible in one day, this is probably the best choice. Our group was 6 persons only, it felt very private. Our tour guide Miro is a true gem - very well educated, we never felt bored Time available at each stop is just about right, do not spend to much tíme in Melk, Hallstatt and Salzburg are the highlights. End - the recommendations from tour guide for restaurants are spots of the beaten path were top notch. As far as I understood, they updated the tour - new guides, cars and some extras. All in All - wonderfull day we really recommend.

Never got to go on the tour - I can’t rate this tour since I was never picked up by the tour company at my hotel as I was told I would be. When I tried contacting them, nobody answered the phone. However, TripAdvisor did refund my money since they were also unable to get in contact with the tour company.

Ruined my holiday - Do let this tour operator ruined your holiday. They are totally unreliable. I booked for a trip on 21 March 2025 and I didn’t get picked up. They didn’t answer my phone calls or messages. Utterly rubbish.

Tour guide never showed up! - We booked this tour weeks in advance, and they never showed up to our hotel in Vienna. We even prepaid for the trip. My wife was hugely disappointed and that we did not even receive a phone call or an email to inform us that no one would be picking us up. They’ve indicated we will receive a refund, but we are waiting on that. Found out later, that this happens frequently. You would be smarter to find a way to take the train and do the tour yourself.

SINVERGÜENZAS. SCAMMERS - YOU GUYS ARE SHAMELESS. You didn't contact me the day before. An hour earlier you canceled our trip. An excursion I dreamed of doing. You ruined my journey. I hope you'll pay me back immediately.

The most unprofessional tour operator! - I booked the Viator tour through Tripadvisor in the evening before. I made payment and received confirmation. The tour driver guide Tomas contacted me with pickup time. He also gave me an app tracking his journey to my hotel. Everything appeared to be all set to go. Next morning I was waiting for the hotel lobby for Tomas, watching his car approaching the hotel on the app. His car suddenly turned around, and he sent a message saying he was not going to arrive; he did not show up. I was speechless about the whole change. I could not believe how the tour operator treated customer like this. The driver made a call two hours later trying to explain. But as you can imagine, the entire sunny Saturday was very different after your plan was disrupted in such an unprofessional way. It was a terrible experience for me.

Cannceled just one day before - I am extremely disappointed with the service and customer treatment. My trip was cancelled just one day before the scheduled date without any explanation or alternative offer. This is absolutely unacceptable, especially for those who plan their travels in advance and have other reservations depending on it. The lack of communication and professionalism left me stranded with no time to find a suitable alternative. Even worse, I received no proper explanation—just a cancellation and nothing more. I would have expected at least some respect for customers, such as - earlier notice, an option to reschedule, or at least partial compensation. Instead, I was treated with complete disregard. I strongly do not recommend this company and will certainly never use their services again.

It's been awful. - We waited in front of the hotel for over an hour from the appointed time on the day, but there was no pick-up, no contact, and it was cancelled on its own! I tried to call the local operator many times but they didn't answer! The Japanese customer care phone number is also unavailable. The trip I've been looking forward to has been ruined. I will never use this place again.
