Travel on a sunny day for full experience. Hallstatt is beautiful. Bus then train, with short boat ride, commencing from Salzburg. We found this route the most picturesque. Don't miss the Waterfall, plus great views from here.

It was a rainy and snowy day when we did this tour but our tour guide, Kamal was very warm enough to give us a great experience!

Kamal led an amazing tour. He was prompt and had a very comfortable SUV. He had a snack bag for everyone ready to go. He was very knowledgeable and took time to explain. The benefit of thr private vehicle - he stopped at all the scenic stops and we were able to customize the length of time we needed. Strongly recommend this tour.

My husband and I were so glad we took the Hallstatt day trip while visiting Salzburg. Our trip would not have been complete without it. We were able to see all the beautiful sites without the pressure of driving ourselves or worrying about the lack of parking. Our driver, Kamal, was fantastic! He provided great insight and knew all the best places to stop. He took great pictures of us and stopped at two additional little towns that were beautiful along the Wolfgangsee where we took a gondola up to the top of the mountain for more amazing views! So worth the money for top quality service. You will not regret choosing this adventure with Kamal as your guide!

We had a fantastic experience! The ride itself was great, but what really made the trip special was our driver, Kamal. He was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond by taking us on a couple of extra side trips to some lovely local villages we wouldn't have seen otherwise. Overall, it was a wonderful day and we would love to book with Kamal again. Highly recommended!

I did this tour with my family of 4, including two adult children (18 and 19 years old) - it was a great way of visiting Hallstatt and two other lakeside villages (we visited St Wolfgang and St Gilgen which were equally as interesting as Hallstatt for different reasons) from Salzburg. Our tour guide, Kamal, was extremely friendly, reliable and flexible and made our day really relaxing and enjoyable. I’d highly recommend this.

It is a very well organised private trip for a small group. Kamal was such a wonderful, well knowledgeable driver. They dropped us to the right spots, told us what to do, drove safely and gave us all the information on the tourist spots we were visiting. They were also kind and I had a truly wonderful time. Thank you Kamal and Viator.

A wonderful experience. A very picturesque and fairytale place on a lake in the mountains. There is no entrance fee. Paid parking is provided. The crowds are big, but we were there in the early hours of the morning when there is less flow of people.

Kamal was a great driver who was also able to provide some history and recommendations about the places we visited. He was very accommodating when we wanted to spend some more time in certain places and less time in others due to the weather. It was a fun day trip!
