Alpine Panoramic Tour to Hallstatt from Vienna
Elena was great!
The tour started on time from outside the Albertina and our guide was Elena. She kept us going throughout the day with commentary all during the trip.
Hallstatt was beautiful but with slightly erratic weather. It was raining one second and the sun comes out the next. Recommended to take the funicular to the top, visit salt mine and the boat cruise too. Set aside a day here. If you can, stay the night and visit the opposite side of the lake. It is wonderful.
We returned to Vienna after 8 pm.

Alpine Panoramic Tour to Hallstatt from Vienna
Simply amazing tour! The best day from my Austrian Holiday!
It’s been 2 weeks since I took the tour and even 2 weeks after I am out of words! I was a solo traveller in Austria and I thought I could get a day trip in Hallstatt! Everything, from the beginning to the very end of the tour was very well organized. Very comfortable mini bus, convenient stops and the best tour Guide – Ilona! Besides the amazing places that you visit during the day, Ilona is worthy to mention and say huuuge thanks for being very informative, very helpful and simply the best tour guide I have ever met! Now, regarding the Hallstatt and the Admont Abbey – I would score those two places with the highest points! Hallstatt is something eternal and out of this world. That place is under the Unesco heritage listed site and that says everything!!!
I would highly recommend that tour to everyone! I have had tons of day trip excursions from many companies but considering the best tour guide and Hallstatt/ Admond Abbey, I would say that right exactly that tour was the best out of the best from my experiences.
