Austria Sightseeing Tours 2018/2019

“The setting of the dinner and the concert (all in the Hohensalzburg Castle, but in two different settings) was extra special. The dinner was served in smaller, intimate rooms with a very attentive wait staff and fabulous views of Salzburg. We found the food to be very good. The salmon was cooked to perfection. After dinner, the concert is performed in a smaller recital hall. The chamber orchestra played Mozart, Strauss, Hayden and Dvorak. They were well trained musicians and the skill level was exceptional. Well worth the money.l”

“The music was alright. But do not expect much for the food. It was mediocre at best.”

“Excellent”

“You get what you expect, a good meal plus Mozart in a real medieval castle hall(150 steps to get there). Recommend early and a beer outside where Glenda Jackson and Walter Matthau met in the movie Hopscotch.”

“The view was spectacular, dinner and concert were great! My daughter and I loved it. I would highly recommend this evening.”

“My son and I cycled from Vienna to Budapest in early June. We had a great time. The accommodation was fabulous all the way and the cycles were high quality. The map and other information was very helpful and although we didn't need it, help would have been at hand if anything had gone wrong. Most of the cycling we did was on quiet roads or cycle lanes which made us feel fairly safe. My only warning to prospective cyclists on this holiday is just to point out that not much of it is actually along the Danube, probably because there just isn't a decent path going along it I guess. Our highlight was Gyor. Never heard of it? We hadn't either but it's a real gem. Bratislava is really charming and Budapest is a city built on a grand scale. Vienna? We weren't so impressed. Just a little bit too la di dah for our taste but a city you have to see especially if like us you are big fans of "The Third Man." Yes, the wheel is still there and yes we did go on it. You have to, right?”

“The trip was great. We arrived in Vienna three days before the bike trip and stayed with a distance cousin that I had contacted through my genealogy. We toured the city seeing Schombrunn castle, Kloisterneiburg cathedral, a Vienna concert as well as the downtown, The bike trip was difficult as we only travelled at 13kpm av. while younger people travelled at over 20kpm. We often arrived at our destination late in the afternoon and found that it was too late to tour buildings that were about to close. I enjoyed the view because we were not near the river but travelling through beautiful farm country and small towns much of the time. We also spent three days in Budapest which I think was about the right amount.We would have enjoyed taking the boat into Budapest on the last half of the last day except the boat did not operate in September on the Sunday that we were there.”
