Meet your guide at your central Vienna hotel and set out on the scenic journey to Salzkammergut. Keep your camera to hand as you wind through the heart of the Austrian Alps and marvel at the panoramic mountain views.

Stop at Admont Abbey, one of Austria’s oldest abbeys, where you can admire the grand Baroque architecture and take a peek in the library – the largest monastic library in the world.

Pass through the UNESCO-listed landscapes of Salzkammergut en-route to Hallstatt village, and hear about the region’s historic significance and rich mining heritage from your guide. Then, set out on a walking tour and follow your guide along the pretty lakefront, past the medieval half-timbered buildings and through the lively Market Square.

Finally, visit the handicrafts center of Gmunden, a town perched on the banks of the Traunsee River and set against a dramatic backdrop of mountains. Snap photos of the Ort Castle, which appears to be floating in the center of the lake, then learn more about the town’s craft-making heritage as you browse the many shops and workshops. Perhaps pick up some unique hand-made souvenirs to remind you of your visit.

After a full day exploring the lake district, jump back on the bus for the return journey to Vienna and end your tour in the city center.

There is so much amazing things to see In Hallstatt is an amazing place. We would have given it a 5 star if our guide was little bit more informative and have a little bit energy to answer our questions without giving us attitude.

A very long day but a very beautiful destination
Hayden_R
, Jun 2022
Hallstatt is one of the prettiest places in the world, so the tour company didn’t have to do much more than get us there and back. Enjoyed ferry trip on the lake and walking around the pretty town. Our Ukrainian guide, however, added several long and unnecessary stops (on commission?) and as a result it was a VERY long day (had to be at the bus before 8am and got back after 9:30pm).

Views are beautiful, Tourist event wasn’t the best
Joshua_Z
, Feb 2020
Pros: Hallstatt is so beautiful. Views are amazing. When you go, take the skywalk, you get an even more great view of the mountains and the water. Cons: Tour guide talks too much on the bus. You spend as much time on the bus getting to Hallstatt as you do in Hallstatt. Your actual free time is 3-4 hours. And there is far too much to see and it kills the joy when you have to kinda rush.

My only complaints were: 1. The bus did not have charging ports for phones 2. The tour guide did not stop talking. Whilst she was very knowledgeable- 3 straight hours of her talking was unbearable.

A fun day out but felt a little rushed
Michael C
, Dec 2019
We enjoyed seeing Admont and Hallstatt but couldn’t help but feel a little rushed. We really needed at least another hour at Hallstatt to fully enjoy the town and unfortunately wasted an hour coming down from the sky walk! The queue was very long and it was terribly cold.

Mark_M

Fantastic opportunity to see the abbey library, but unclear visibility of the guide meant the group drifted apart before we could start the tour so a lot of time waiting which meant we missed a big chunk of time to see the xmas market. Tour guide tried her best to cover english and Russian which meant it was hard work to just enjoy the view. It felt like a constant stream of words. Hallstatt was lovely and a great journey make better by the snow covering.

Halstatt tour
Babita_K
, Oct 2019
This tour is wrong is so many ways. The tour tells you it’s 13 hours but they keep you trapped in the bus for 9-10 hours of that and the rest is a short stop at Admont abbey which is avoidable anyway and then Halstatt. The tour guide whose name I donor remember was terrible too. She talked NON STOP for 9 hours of that bus journey telling history tales. It was like a history lesson. The tour guys must know it’s a Long journey so they try and fill it in with talk I suppose. Then they insist on playing this music non stop so even if you felt like snoozing or some peace and quiet you won’t get it!! She was rude and arrogant. None of the times she mentioned for destinations were true. The driver would take detours that made the road journey longer but she wouldn’t mention it! Then getting into Halstatt we got stuck in a traffic jam for half hour. She wouldn’t tell us until asked that they had one tunnel shut so that caused the jam! This seems like a new tour company. If you want to try around for 10 hours in a bus looking outside the window then this tour is for you else AVOID.

Loved this day trip! The Austrian Alps are beautiful. We loved driving through them. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and very good. Our driver was exceptional! We were amazed at his ability to safely maneuver the bus on small roads and in small parking lots. Overall this is definitely a trip we would do again!

Auful - Not a MINI bus tour
Andreas_P
, Jul 2019
I have close so many tours from Viator. This was the 1st time we made the tour by bus. I wonder why they have charge my 3 years son since he did not have a car seat therefore no safety no relaxing and no sleeping for him and had to seat all the way to my legs. His whole program became nightmare for us so we could not follow the guide. Unlimited speach in English & russian (bla bla bla) made my wife and me dizzy. Hallstat is beautiful but this tour was a disaster and i expect from you even now to refund my child's unfair charging. Thanks!

12 hr round-trip with a stop to see Altmont Abbey but not enough time in Hallstadt to do much of anything.
ROBERT_B
, Jul 2019
Beautiful scenery, but the 8 hours of non-stop commentary first in English and then repeated in Russian was exhausting.! When passengers began talking among themselves, the guide got up and told everyone to be quiet. Hurried bus stops with time for just a snack and toilet. After 6 hrs without a meal or drink on a very hot, sunny day, the guide insisted on her guided walking tour through town FIRST, despite requests to hydrate and get a quick meal before. No time for a boat ride or leisurely walk around. Most restaurants are cash only. Otherwise charming and tons of tourists.

stunning Admont library
Dominika_K
, Jun 2019
Unfortunately, it was very bad weather! We were unlucky and had a cold and rainy day for this trip. The visit to Hallstatt was the highlight, but because of bad weather, there were no views. The guide was not very competent. The guide was fairly curt in his commentary in English, spending much more time explaining things in Russian. (I do speak a little Russian, so I know she wasn't saying the same thing in each language). She spoke in 80% in Russian and just 20% in English The abbey in Admont was impressive, definitely worth going and see this stunning library! However please choose a different guide!

Quite an informative tour
Mariana_A
, May 2019
The tour was offered in two languages - Rus & Eng. As a native speakers of both, we did enjoy Russian version the most and wished the whole tour was in one language only - either in Eng or in Rus - as it wasn't easy to stay focused because of continuous switch from one language to the other. Apart from that, the whole experience was pretty good. Our guide Dasha filled historical facts with many interesting details about Austrian culture, history, cuisine, customs, etc. The only suggestion would be to make this tour depart at 7 am rather than 8 am, as the time spent in Hallstatt (2 hours only) was not enough. There are many other tourist groups arriving to the Hallstatt daily, so expect the lines everywhere (in stors, in restaurants, at the attraction sites). Thus, 2 hours is really nothing when compared to the price paid to get there.

Hallstat is a must-see little cosy place, and I truly recommend it. To bad we only had 2 hours there; surely it deserved more. The landscape on the way there are absolutely gorgeous, and they are as beautiful as the destination.
