The bus was comfortable and restaurants were excellent when we had our noon time meal. The sleigh ride itself was exceptional! The horses were beautiful, the snow glistened and our sleigh driver contributed to a perfect day.

A memorable trip through some beautiful scenery. The event was well organised too, it was handy being collected from our hotel. Just remember to wrap up warm!

This was a really nice day, where even the bus ride there and back were pleasant and enjoyable. The tour guide was efficient, polite and knowledgeable. The sleighs were comfortable and the route was scenic and beautiful! The restaurant that was reserved for our lunch totally optional was reasonably priced, had excellent food and was very comfortable. Overall, I'd rate this as a very worthwhile experience, particularly when you're there on Christmas Day! Dress for the cold, especially gloves, hat and good warm footwear.

Not knowing how much and what to expect off a Christmas Day sleigh ride, all we knew was that we wanted a special white Christmas day. Well my sister and I can say, that this is one of the best day trips I have EVER experienced. The tour people were very professional and had a great commentary for us on the way up to the sleigh ride start point. They even had us joining in and laughing with their jokes. The horses and sleighs were just out of a Christmas story, even down to the bells on the horses. We loved the route we went on, and were surrounded by magnificent snowy mountains and a wonderful blue sky. Even stopping for a hot chocolate and a gluwein along the way added to the spirits. We thoroughly enjoyed this trip and would certainly recommend it to anyone. What a day, one we will never forget. Thank you so much.

The trip was well organized and an excellent value for the money, considering the outing is a full-day excursion. The sleigh ride itself was fantastic with glorious scenery.

Really enjoyed this. The tour guide was very knowledgeable on Salzburg and area. You get a two hour stop at a small village, there isn't a lot to do other than have a drink, bite to eat and walk, so if you aren't too good on your feet it's worth noting. Every where was very picturesque, we travelled through the snow covered Alps which was very festive, like a winter wonderland. After 30 minutes you stay at a nice little cafe/bar where you have time for a drink. Well worth it.

Sleigh ride was great. Even longer than promised 2.5 hours including a break at a winter lodge to have hot drinks and struessel - yummm. Only complaint would be the hour long stop off at a truck-stop in the morning. Who needs an hour to use the restroom and look over some dumpy merchandise. We usually don't like bus tours, but this was worth being herded around all day. The ride was magical and guides very friendly.

The driver forgot to pick us up from the hotel until we call them up and informed them after waiting nearly 1 hour.
