Innsbruck Tours in Summer

It was a well paced tour with the right mix of organized tours and free time. Having just two hotels (Bern and Innsbruck) we were able to spend less time packing and unpacking, and more time enjoying the beauty and culture of Switzerland, Austria and Bavaria. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and kept us on schedule without being a tyrant!

We were surrounded by historic buildings the entire trip and it was amazing. We ate in a restaurant that opened in “803”, Beethoven ate there in 1790!! Our Tour Manager Patryk Priess was amazing!

My tour was everything I expected and more. It was fun-filled, informative and scenic. The tour was balanced with plenty of sight-seeing and free time to explore on my own. I felt immersed in the local culture with the included activities and especially the food. There were 3 activities I enjoyed the most. One was the trip to and down from Mt. Pilatus on the cog railway and the gondola. One was apple strudel making and one was the Tyrolean Evening program. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Experienced superb planning, care, and experiences throughout the main tour and the Vienna extension! Highly recommend to others. Tour Manager Martin Ketter plans with meticulous detail while maintaining flexibility and easy-going style with all guests. Martin is also a student of life and history of all the areas visited and shares his knowledge with guests when traveling to and from the locations. All local guides were also pleasant, informative, and fielded questions with deyail. Hotel breakfasts were a cornucopia of delicious foods. The Bern, Munich, and Vienna hotels had gourmet self serve coffee makers -- wonderful. All provided lunches and dinners were excellent. All excursions and performances were culturally relevant and entertaining! One item for improvement, the shower at Vienna hotel was nearly impossibly too narrow to maneuver while keeping the swinging door in position to avoid a great deal of water leaking past it and onto the floor. Took some acrobatic, was slippery, and a bit dangerous.

This trip was bloody amazing woohoo!!! We hired one normal bike and one ebike. Both bikes were adequate. Our bikes didn’t have water bottle holders which would have been nice and the phone holders don’t allow you to swipe the phone map app easily. Bring your own phone holder if possible because you do need to refer to the mapping app quite frequently. We get lost easily and we survived so I think most people could operate the map app. The hotel accomodation was mixed which we liked. Sometimes an old place, sometimes luxury, sometimes modern. Our luggage was taken from place to place without a hitch. The trail was tiring for my wife but the ebike made it doable and the majority of the trail is on dedicated cycle paths with spectacular scenery. A wonderful experience for two Australians in their 60’s.

Great affordable trip that covered all the main highlights and more. Emma and Damien both did an awesome job keeping us safe and informed on this epic journey. I would highly recommend travelling with Expat Tours and are already checking their website for ideas for my next adventure.
