Austria 7-Day Tours and Trips

The itinerary was nice, and beautiful places were visited, breakfast was delicious. Having free time was also good. The number of people per tour seems excessive, the logistics could be improved: the group we started with was split and could have continued together until Frankfurt. The buses could be identified with the next destination or have the tour guide by the bus door, this way it would have been avoided the delay in Prague due to a couple of people getting in the wrong bus looking for their luggage in the lower storage compartment, regardless of how many times the tour guides repeated this to the travelers. The microphone volume was not high/clear enough for people sited in the back of the bus. Many people talking at the same time, made it difficult for some people to hear what the tour guide was saying. Our hotel in Prague was exceptional, location metro conveniently located across the driveway, view from our room, etc. We would tour that city again just to be in the same hotel. We would not do it if we had to stay at any of the other hotels in that city. The luggage rule was not enforced which created delays when going from Prague to Frankfurt which, in turn, reduced the time spent in the next city. We noticed people traveling with a huge suitcase, which probably was according to the rule of weight limit but, they also had a smaller suite case like the carry-on size for most airlines and a personal bag. One suggestion to avoid this is: have the travel agents making sure the travelers understand the rule sign an acknowledgement, and possibly telling passengers that an extra charge will apply for additional suitcases so that they can be transported separately to the next destination or the traveler will have to carry it with them inside the bus. The folklore dinner and show in Budapest was really nice but pricey, especially considering the fact that prices in Budapest are cheap. The dinner was good, but the meat in the main course was a bit dry.

Excellent. Great people,very good itinerary, excellent CEO. Hard to know which Christmas markets would be best ? but that is part of the journey. Great to have had the concert in Vienna and the unique opportunity for a Krampus run. I chose the Vienna to Berlin for personal reasons but would do it again as the cities at beginning and end are wonderfully different.

I had the most enjoyable experience... EVER! Our guide, Javier was exceptional, as well as the selected tour guides in the different areas. The accommodations were wonderful, as well as the food, drinks, shows, etc. I would do this again.

Everything worked out perfectly. Hotels were generally good and well located with good breakfasts. Transfer of bags was flawless. The route on our phone was clear and simple to follow.

I found the itinerary perfect, gave us enough of a taste of each area-and allowed time to also explore on our own, We did hit a snafu, with participants on the tour not returning back to bus in the allotted time, which caused us to have less time in other areas. Participants blamed the tour guide, but neither were at fault. Matheus sp? was excellent and kept us up to date on all changes. Javier the second leg for us was also excellent, unfortunately participants blamed him for lack of time in some areas- but once again, we had to return to collect participants that missed the bus, and also made an extra stop for an ill passenger. upon which, half the bus decided to optimize on this extra stop.. WE were completely satisfied with the tour and guides/ and will be looking forward to booking with Europamundo again.

1. The Wachau Valley was the highlight. 2. Finding the correct bus route to pick up the bikes on the first evening was a bit of a challenge. 3. The GPX worked so well letting us know within 50 yards that we were off the suggested trail. 4. While St. Agatha was beautiful and the lodging comfortable; contacting the pickup and waiting for a couple of hours was not our favorite way to end a rainy biking day. 5. Had we realized several hotels were not in walking distance to restaurants, we would have purchased the evening meal plan. 6. The days were filled with a variety of beautiful changing scenery while riding the entire week along the Danube — good trip.
