Travel from Vienna to Admont Abbey, Hallstatt, and Gmunden on a scenic 13-hour Alpine day trip with a guide and transport included.

“From pick-up to drop-off the whole trip was excellent. The guide and driver were very professional. The guide had a very detailed knowledge of the history of the area. The only slight comment I would make on the bus is that it would be great if there were some usb charging points as my phone went very low and it would have been dreadful if I had missed out on taking as many photos as I would have liked.

See Melk Abbey, Hallstatt, Salzburg, Alpine lakes, and Wachau Valley on a 13-hour guided day trip from Vienna.

“Our guide was absolutely amazing and had a wealth of knowledge that was super helpful. Melk was interesting, but we didn’t get a lot of information about the area. Hallstatt was unparalleled with its beautiful views. We didn’t do much in Salzburg except walk along a street full of shops, which I felt was wasted time. I would’ve rather spent much more time in Hallstatt. The bus was very nice and comfortable and we had reasonable time for bathroom breaks as needed.”
