Vienna is tantalizingly close to the sublime landscapes of Salzburg and Hallstatt, but arranging your own travel logistics can eat into precious vacation time. This day trip covers several mountains and lakes beyond the city limits, letting you sit back and soak up the scenery as someone else transports you through the Austrian Alps.

Our tour guide was amazing. The tour itself was great. The tour agency was well organized. The bus was lacking. If we could have had a bus with a bathroom and phone chargers it would be five stars.

I was in Austria only for 3 full days, and this tour allowed me to see a large part of the country, including Vienna, Alps and Salzburg. Olga and Natasha (our Salzburg guide) were very knowledgeable and organized. I liked beautiful lakes and mountains the best.

“We had an outstanding experience with our guide, Lily, on the full-day tour to Upper Austria. She has incredible knowledge of the area — from the history of Hallstatt and the salt mines to the famous people whose names are connected with this area. She explained everything in a lively and engaging way that kept the whole group interested. We especially appreciated her excellent photo-spot recommendations and practical tips about further sightseeing. The tour was perfectly organized. Lily was very attentive, friendly, and always ready to help. We highly recommend this tour and Lily. 5 stars!”
First, learn facts and figures about Austria, its people and their customs by starting the tour while driving on the highway.
Melk Abbey - A Baroque Jewel- is the symbol of the Wachau Valley. Enjoy the view of its steep, terraced vineyards overlooking the Danube.
Driving time through picturesque Alpine region of Salzkammergut, famous for its beautiful landscapes, culture and a love of tradition. Salt from the heart of its mountains has brought affluence to the region - but its most valuable assets are the lakes. Even before we all became travellers in search of beauty and inspiration, the banks of its picturesque lakes have attracted writers, poets and emperors.
You will visit a heart of Salzkammergut region – a fabulous town of Hallstatt, lost among the high mountains on the shore of the lake with blue azure coloured water. This place is considered to be the main view of the Alpine Austria, but no picture can show a splendid atmosphere of this town and its original character. During your free time you can walk through the narrow streets of the town and admire magnificent views of the lake and huge mountains.
On the way to Salzburg we will prepare for your meeting with the capital of classical music. Once you know the history of Austria and understand its culture and customs, you will look at the picturesque streets and squares of the old city in a completely different way.
Salzburg - a cozy beautiful town on the banks of the Salzach river, made in the baroque architectural style, the world capital of classical music, the birthplace of the great Mozart and Karajan. You will have free time to walk through the Mirabel Garden and see the house where Mozart was born, the Salzburg Cathedral and one of the oldest monasteries in Europe - the active monastery of St. Peter. You can also leave our group tour here and to Vienna at your own expenses by train.
After embracing the cultural side of Salzburg, you'll start you way back to Vienna.
We will make a short coffee break at a quality restaurant on a highway, where you can relax and enjoy a comfortable rustic atmosphere and stretch your legs during your break.
On the way back to Vienna you will have a chance to rest and plan with the help of our driver your next free days in the Austrian capital.
