Anna was a fantastic guide- very friendly and knowledgeable. We were picked up at our hotel and shepherded around for a full day. I would not recommend Hallstatt- way too many tourists- difficult to move around and other than a few shops and photo ops ( while waiting amongst the throngs of other visitors) not much to do. Anna had other options for us and I have to say, she made the trip such a memorable day. We visited other villages and finished with a great lunch in Gosau with a view of an alpine glacier among the Alps. Truly magical!

Marin was an excellent guide and storyteller! We enjoyed the trip. It was a little expensive for the day, but we had a great time and saw beautiful scenery.
It was wonderful. Anna customized it to fit our wants and needs. Highly recommend to anyone visiting this area.
Anna was always very quick in responding to my emails. She also gave me good recommendation of Salzburg restaurants. She was very flexible in helping us to customize our itinerary. Anna was our driver and guide for the day. We went to Gosau Lake first and it was the highlight of our tour. The lake and its surrounding was stunning. The place was quiet and peaceful. The walk along the lake front was wonderful. Anna's suggestion to have real authentic Austrian food at the lakefront restaurant was a great idea. The fish was so fresh and the venison was excellent too. Then on to Hallstatt which I found to be overrated. We planned to take the boat ride there but after seeing the lake we decided to go on the boat ride in our next stop at Wolfgangsee Lake instead. Anna dropped us off at St Wolfgang for us to board the boat and she drove to St Gilgen to pick us up. The boat ride was scenic and serene. After the boat tour Anna showed us around the pretty small town of St Gilgen. All in all a very good day.
Great Time and well worth the money. Anna was an excellent guide and very knowledgeable of the area. She found us locations that the tour buses didn’t go. Thank You!
Anna was amazing! Very knowledgeable, flexible to what we wanted to see and do and answered all of our questions. The scenery was just breathtaking and we learned so much about Austria. Do not hesitate to book this tour!
Absolutely magnificent day with guide Marin who gave excellent guidance and advice throughout this tour, including picking exactly the right breaks in the weather so that we could make the most of the 5 Fingers - lunch was at a wonderful restaurant in the local area, pickup and drop off at our hotel in Salzburg was seamless. Thank you Marin for your local insights - and the quiz also kept us amused! I could not rate this tour highly enough and would use Tyrol Travel again without hesitation. Peter NSW Australia
Fabulous private tour with Marin to Hallstatt. He gave us historical facts & stories of funny local traditions with the odd quiz thrown in just to add to the fun. Even on a rainy day Marin made this so special, he flipped the itinerary to suit the weather so we would get the best from the 5 fingers lookout. Hallstatt was very busy by the time we got down from 5 Fingers so Marin fixed that in a heartbeat by taking us to a local restaurant nearby which had great service and delicious traditional food. We came back to Hallstatt, clouds still low but gave wonderful moody pictures. Then the weather started to lift. Marin stayed longer to see if the weather continued to get better while taking us to great nooks and crannies with another story around every corner. Then a ray of sunshine lit the place up further and another round of pictures were in order. I can’t thank Marin enough for a terrific day in Hallstatt and surrounds. Carmel Sydney, Australia
This was an amazing and meaningful journey. A special thanks to our guide, Marin, who took us to hidden photo spots we would never have found on our own and shared wonderful stories that helped us better understand Hallstatt and its church. The schedule was flexible and relaxed, allowing us to truly enjoy the experience at our own pace. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Hallstatt — this tour made our trip unforgettable! :)
Anna our tour guide picked us on time and prepared small christmas gifts for us. She is good and familiar with the driving routes, its a fun and comfortable tour for the day. She also took some pictures for us with her camera and we are looking forward to receive it from her soon.
Marin was awesome. He was on time and where we expected per our confirmation text the day before. We had a perfect day going to Hallstatt & Gosau. He was our personal tour guide and shared so much history with us! A great photographer too! We finished our day back in Salzburg at Hangar 7. Such a special treat and fantastic way to end the day! Thank you Marin for a day we will never forget! We will refer you to all our friends visiting the region!
We did a whole day personal tour of Hallstatt with our very entertaining tour guide Anna. The scenery is spectacular and the town of Hallstatt is absolutely gorgeous. Well worth the day trip and our guide Anna was very informative and funny and made the day a very enjoyable experience. A definite must do!
We had a wonderful time with Anna! Our pickup was seamless and despite the forecast for rain, we were able to enjoy a lovely day of sightseeing. The drive to Hallstatt is incredibly scenic. Visiting Gosau was another highlight. Lunch at the lake was delicious, and we had fun chatting with Anna throughout the whole day. Would recommend!
great experience & day overall! very customizable and accommodating, all and all a great job & would highly recommend!!!
It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! Not only was Hallstatt a beautiful place to visit, but Anna was a wonderful tour guide, and a pleasure to spend the day with. We enjoyed her company immensly. She made sure to tailor the trip to our needs, and continued being flexible even on the day of the tour in order to do so. Not only did we love Hallstatt, but the hike around the lake was beautiful, and the lunch was wonderful, with such beautiful views! Hopefully, we will be able to use her services again in the future, as we do hope to visit Hallstatt in the winter at some point. If so, we would not hesitate to reach out to her again for a tour. Highly recommended!!!
Anna, our tour guide was amazing. On time, very knowledgeable, friendly, easy to talk to, great energy. We had an amazing time, stunning views, fun memories, and lots of beautiful places we visited. Highly recommend.
Anna was wonderful! So kind and fun. She knew all the hidden spots to go. It was an amazing day and it was all due to Anna.
We had the most wonderful day trip to Hallstatt with Anna. She is very knowledgeable about the area and showed us so many great places along the way. We even had a chance to stop and have lunch in a lovely place while viewing the last glacier in Austria. Our tour was May 16 and the weather was perfect. No jacket needed. We also had a lovely private boat ride on the lake in a traditional wooden boat. Anna arranged this for us too. She’s an awesome tour guide!
We went to this tour on January 2025 during the low season and we thoroughly enjoyed the trip arranged by Anna. She picked us up from our hotel on time and she really took care of our needs. She was very friendly and my family really appreciate her company. Our criteria to enjoy the trip are always worry / trouble free tour, accommodating to our pace and request, no surprises, no shopping trip, very friendly, can explain the culture and history to us and most importantly able to recommend good food and restaurant to us. Anna was able to provide us all of these, therefore we would highly recommend anyone who are planning a trip to Austria to look for her to arrange for your tour as you would then be able to really enjoy your holiday
We had the most Amazing day with Marin from Tyroltravel.we did a private tour and He showed us all the beautiful places avoiding the crowds. We highly recommend . Jaci fernando and Mohan (from Colombo Sri Lanka
Anna’s amazing!!!! She not only showed us the best views but also told us the best stories. She knows everything and everyone! It was a wonderful trip with her! Strongly recommended!
We had the best day visiting Hallstatt with the help of Ana! She communicated with us leading up to our day so that we could plan/customize to make the most of it based on our preferences. We really enjoyed the convenience of being picked up and dropped back off at our hotel in Salzburg. More than that, we enjoyed her insights and history during the drive and in the town itself. On the way back we stopped at a great restaurant on a charming lake with local fare and had one of our favorite meals and a beer. She was full of the best suggestions and made the trip more memorable than it would have been without her!
Thank you Anna for a wonderful tour of Hallstatt and surrounding areas. If you want to stop and see the local sites and learn about the history of the area from a local guide, this tour is the way to go. We learned so much about the historical significance of the drive + scheduled and unscheduled stops as well as what life is like in Austria. None of which you can really get from a bus tour. I HIGHLY recommend Anna's tour.
What a brilliant day we had with Anna. Pick-up was perfect right outside our accommodation and the scenic drive to Hallstatt was wonderful with a few stops along the way. Anna had great stories and information about all the places we stopped and the walking tour through Hallstatt was very informative and entertaining. We stopped for lunch in a lovely restaurant and on the return journey stopped at the stunning glacier lake. We enjoyed the day very much and wouldn’t hesitate to book with Anna again.
We really enjoyed the tour, bringing us to all the sights and giving us flexibility. Thank you Anna for sharing with us your knowledge of the area. We had an unfortunate event where the car broke down at the end of the trip, but Anna was calm and kept us up to date, and we got back safe and sound! Would definitely recommend this!
I would highly recommend this experience. It was a beautiful and interesting outing. Anna is knowledgeable, flexible, and absolutely delightful to spend a day with.
Marin went above and beyond to make our experience quite enjoyable! We were amazed by the views of Hallstatt and the Austrian Alps. Marin even took us to some hidden beauties for done breathtaking pictures. Highly recommended. Thank you Marin and Anna!
Anna was a wonderful guide! We had a great day!! Book with her and you won't be disappointed! She is very knowledgeable and can guide you away from very touristy places
Great full day tour of Hallstatt. Our guide Marin had lots of great stories, found us a nice little cafe outside of town for a quick breakfast and coffee before we began. Highly recommend swinging by Hanger 7 on the way back!
We had a wonderful day! Highly recommend this tour. It is worth every penny! Our tour guide Anna was amazing, informative and just a pleasure to spend the day with. Don't hesitate, book this now!
Halstatt was absolutely stunning! Our favorite place so far . The views were great and there were not too many tourists which was wonderful .
Beautiful views. Charming town. Interesting and educational. Anna was a fun and knowledgeable guide.
We had an amazing day with Anna. Communication was top notch and she was very informative throughout the various stops.
This was the most amazing tour! Anna was so knowledgeable, friendly and showed us incredible places. We enjoyed Hallstatt and the other spots like Gosau immensely. The boat ride in Hallstatt was a great addition and the lunch spot near Gosau was perfection along the lake. We are F1 fanatics and there were some optional Red Bull stops, which we loved. We highly recommend this comprehensive tour. After doing quite a few tours in different countries, this was by far one of the best. The scenery is stunning, you must go to this part of Austria and you must take this tour! Anna is top notch!
My husband & I had a fabulous day trip to Hallstatt with Anna. Of course the scenery everywhere is stunning, and Hallstatt just as you see in the pictures - maybe a bit touristy and crowded, but if you go up the finucular to the top, it is peaceful and truly a very special view. Anna’s commentary was so interesting and she is a lovely, friendly and easy going guide. We had lunch on a stunning lake away from Hallstatt, which was perfect. The drive was lovely from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Excellent tour with wonderful guide Anna. Was forecast some rain so she started us early to try to avoid rain and it worked perfectly. Very knowledgeable and interactive and pleasant.
Hadcan absolutely great time. Exceeded our expectations. We learned so much and would never had gone to Halstadt on our own. Great sense of humor too
Anna helped to create a day of lifelong memories for us during our tour of Hallstatt. We sincerely appreciated her timely pre-trip communications and her guidance of what was practical to experience during a single day trip to Hallstatt from Salzburg. We liked that Anna offered recommendations and allowed us to make the final choices of what to experience based on our interests. Anna arrived on-time at our hotel and picked us up in a luxury vehicle for our trip. Anna not only has a great knowledge of Hallstatt and its history, but the surrounding areas as well. We appreciated her willingness to share some of that with us during our ride in the car as well as her knowing where to stop along the way for us to see some incredible sights that were perfect for picturing taking. Our walking tour through Hallstatt was nothing less that stunning. Anna allowed us to move along at our own pace and shared information and stories with about everything that we saw. Before our trip back to Salzburg, Anna took us to a restaurant where we enjoyed an authentic Austrian meal in a quiet outdoor setting. We reflected on what we had seen throughout the day and Anna provided additional details and answered any questions that we had. Anna is a class act! She treated us in a very professional, courteous, and friendly manner and helped us to experience many treasures of Hallstatt that we would have missed without her knowledge and guidance.
We had a lovely time with Marin who drove us to Hallstatt and Gosau. Marin is very funny and regale us with many stories along the way. He was also very patient as we took our time exploring the area. Communication prior to the tour was prompt with Anna as well who gave us good pointers. Thank you for a lovely time!
My family (including 2 teenagers) had a wonderful day with our guide Anna. If you are like me and not sure about booking due to under 100 ratings, don’t fear — this trip is 5 stars. Anna was very warm and knowledgeable. We learned so much from her about Austrian culture and the countryside and places we visited. I appreciate the off the main drag streets and places we visited in Hallstatt Lake and the stops along the way, including the beautiful lake we lunched at. Thank you for such a memorable day!
Stop questioning yourself and Book the tour😍 Anna was fantastic and a wealth of information. Hallstätt is a real-world whimsical, fairytale village…a must see! We were guided to a wonderful, authentic lunch at the lake in Gosau. All and all, wonderful day and tour!
We had a fabulous day. Anna was a wealth of information and took us to spots we would have never found. She knew exactly where to go to avoid any crowds. The lunch beside a lake and glacier on the way home was idyllic. Would definitely recommend for anyone who wants an easy and relaxing journey to Hallstatt! Anna is a lovely person who is very easy to spend all day with.
My friend and I had an amazing day in Hallstatt, thanks to Anna! Our day started with a stop at the beautiful Basilika St. Michael in Mondsee, which we requested. Anna walked us through the town to the church and gave us lots of information along the way. We also stopped for pics at St. Gilgen before arriving in Hallstatt. Anna gave us time to go to the Skywalk, which had incredible views. Luckily the lines were short since there were not many tourists at this time of year. From there, Anna gave us a private, leisurely tour through Hallstatt. She gave us lots of background information and we stopped for numerous photos. We had a delicious lunch at a restaurant that Anna recommended and had fun talking with her. She walked us through the town to the church, Bone House, cemetery, and shops. And she took us to the best photo place! I had waited several years before I could get to Hallstatt and decided that I did not want to be rushed on a bus tour there. So I decided that it would be best to book a private tour and it was the best decision!! Anna made it a perfect day with lots of information and laughs along the way. We made a new friend and visited an amazing destination!!
It was the most trip we were looking forward to it as we know Anna always makes trips extremely fun , best regards for Anna
Great trip to Hallstatt. Anna was so informative….and showed us some great spots along the way. Wonderful experience…amazing views!!
Thankyou Marin Your knowledge exceptional and friendly demeanour accompanied with fabulous views WOW Our day out was awesome All 8 of us said it was a great day !! Thankyou again
Anna was brilliant! Very friendly and informative. We spent a lovely day visiting lots of beautiful scenic places. Would certainly recommend!
The trip from Salzburg to Hallstatt with Anna was absolutely delightful. Anna is funny, smart, and friendly. You will not find a better tour guide for this region of Austria! Anna picked us up in a clean, comfortable car at our hotel in Salzburg and drove us to Hallstatt. My wife and I took the tram up the mountain. We hiked on the mountainside and toured the salt mine. Afterward we had a marvelous lunch of fresh, local fish at a Hallstatt restaurant with Anna. Anna then guided us on a walk around Hallstatt as evening settled in. The beauty of the village at twilight shortly after Christmas was magical. We made a new friend with Anna on this day!
Beautiful drive from Salzburg even in the cold rain. Enjoyed this village even with too many tourists around. Lunch was good Christmas Eve when many shoos and restaurants were closed. Tour guide was at times hard to understand but accommodating and insightful with an interesting personal story. Village is dying away sadly and some Foreign tourists are quite rude.
Not only was the trip beautiful, but the tour was incredibly informative. We really enjoyed Anna and all of her knowledge of the area and history. Highly recommend!
