Panoramic Salzburg City Tour with Coffee and Cake
Salzburg, Austria
My Rating

Gives a good overview of beautiful Salzburg and its environs, good commentary and comfortable minibus. The optional afternoon tea is worth it for the view alone.

Vienna Woods and Mayerling Half Day Trip
Vienna, Austria
My Rating

Sounds outdoorsy? -wrong.The only experience of the Vienna Woods is through the bus window, on your way to a shrine (Mayerling), an abbey (why?) and a flooded disused mine (the grotto- a bit eerie but interesting). Not what we expected from the description.

Vienna Walking Tour: In the Footsteps of 'The Third Man'
Vienna, Austria
My Rating

Quite a lot of walking on a hot day, but a fascinating insight into the 19th and 20th century history of Vienna, as well as plenty of anecdotes about the film in many of its actual locations. And a surprise at the end of the tour.

Schonbrunn Palace Evening: Palace Tour, Dinner and Concert
Vienna, Austria
My Rating

The palace is more interesting than Versailles with a good audioguide of the rooms and the relevant history, dinner okay if you like boiled beef ( excellent strudel though) and the concert was lively and good fun.
