The best guide ever

5.00The tour operator was wonderful. Before we did the tour they were very helpful with my questions. Our tour guide Mido was fantastic. He took us to places we wanted to go and added on places he thought we may enjoy, which we did! We had planned on lunch in Hallstatt but it was so crowded we changed our minds. He had a lovely place to suggest in St. Wolfgang and it was picturesque! We could not recommend him enough. I hope to come back and I’m so lucky, we will definitely be booking with Mido again. 5 stars is not enough - definitely a 10 star day with Mido

5.00Like pages right out of a storybook — what delightful towns to visit, and with such ease on this trip with Mido! We had extra special luck and enjoyed the first snowfall of the year as each town prepared for its Christmas markets. It was magical!
