  It was the highlight of our trip in Austria. I am so in love with the place. I am glad we got to experience this amazing place in person.

• A well thought of trip with a great provider

  It was a smooth experience from booking to finish. The tour guide, Marek, messaged me the night before to confirm the pick-up time and trip details, which I really appreciated. He was an excellent guide and driver—organized, friendly, and managed the schedule really well. Marek provided useful information about each destination, including where to eat, what’s worth seeing, where the restrooms were, and the best photo spots. At every stop, he gave us a short historical and cultural overview, then allowed generous time to explore on our own. We never felt rushed, although it’s good to keep in mind that this is a day trip from Vienna, not a full day in each destination—so you’ll need to prioritize what you want to see most. The van was new, clean, and comfortable, and Marek drove safely the entire time. He was very thoughtful and spoke fluent English. Overall, it was a very enjoyable and well-organized trip. I would definitely recommend this tour and this provider!

  Extremely had a bad experience with this trip booking . My booking was cancelled day before trip without prior information and I forced to book new booking with additional more 200 euro extra cost for the booking. I will never suggest any friends and colleagues to book any such trip through viator.

• Great day trip!

  Totally disappointed with this tour company, showing as “Visit Austria” in Viator but another reviewer had referred to it as “Capital City Discoveries” which seems to check out with the same tour contact in their TripAdvisor reviews. I had booked the tour to Halllstatt+Salzburg from Vienna 2 weeks before a September 30, 2025 tour date. At around 8pm on September 29th, I got a message from them to say that the tour scheduled for 7am the following morning has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances and asked if I wanted to reschedule for October 1st or get a refund. I had asked them to advise if there was a chance that the October 1st tour would be cancelled, because in which case I would look for an alternate tour. They said the October 1st one is happening so I rescheduled. Just before 11pm on September 30, I get a notification from Viator that a refund has been processed. I was confused and worried that the tour was cancelled again but there was no message from the tour company. Getting the notice at 11pm also meant I didn’t have much option to find another tour for the following day which was my last full day in Vienna. I sent a couple of messages acknowledging that it was super late and I’d likely not get an update till the morning. Day of the tour, I get ready just in case. Sadly no one comes so I message the tour and Viator. Viator said no note as to why it was cancelled but confirmed the refund. Still no message from the tour company which is unacceptable and unfortunately a very disappointing way to wrap up my trip to Austria.
