Eagles Nest and Berchtesgaden - This was a very well organised tour. Our guide Francina ?? was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable. To get up to the top of the mountain was worth all the travelling. The view was absolutely fantastic. So delighted we did it

Good tour, not spoilt by the weather. - Great tour with Maria and Katrina, unfortunately the weather prevented us from getting to the Eagles Nest, but our guides improvised and we still had a great tour. Some other reviews mention you need your passports as you transit partly the rough Austria, so remember to bring them.

Superb. - Very informative, Elisabeth had extensive knowledge of what we were seeing and was incredibly friendly and helpful to anyone who wanted to gain further knowledge.
You'll be escorted up to the eagles nest with a sense of importance as there was a bus only for us up and down to get to the nest. (A little bit of a scary ride for anyone afraid of heights but do it and be rewarded with some of the best views you have ever seen)
The driver 'bashkin'? Was a very smooth and professional driver, you feel like you're in safe hands all the way.
I cannot recommend this trip enough and we would choose this company over others if we were to go again.
Highly rated experience.
My only criticism is we would have preferred an extra hour in Obersalazberg but other than that a superb day out.

Very well organized and very good plan for the group to get the most of our time at each location. Lots of information. - Elizabeth was very good with information on the subjects of Hitler/Eagles Nest/ spots around Munich tell the group right off the start of our tour. She was very willing to organize on the step by step once we arrived at the Eagles Nest so her (Happy Group) made the most of our time at the Eagles nest. She also did the same well lay out plan on the second leg of the tour in town.
Elizabeth Drive sorry can’t remember his name did an awesome job felt safe for the entire journey there and back.
Thanks had a good time.

A sight to see to help understand History - My son and I went to the Eagles Nest last week. The views, when the weather is clear, are truly amazing. During the time were were there we had clear skies then the fog came in and it we were inside a cloud. Remembering what happened here put a damper on how beautiful it is. This is something anyone interested in the history of WW2, should see. What's funny was knowing that Hitler didn't like coming here because he was afraid of heights.

A brilliant Day - A long day but our guide and driver were fantastic. Very well organised but could have done with half an hour less at the Eagles Nest and half an hour less at the bunker exhibition, which was amazingly well done

Keep way clear of booking with this tour company. It is amateur and organised by cons - So we got on the coach to be told the weather is bad so potentially might not be allowed to go to the eagles nest.. but then followed by it’s not raining there so it doesn’t look to be a problem.
Then about 45 minutes from the destination she said on the bus speaker that the eagles nest is closed and we won’t be going today.
This is more than half way into the journey and gave us no choice. If we knew it was closed we would’ve not gone on the trip. For the weather, it was raining when we got on the bus and did not change, when we got there it had clearly been raining/snowing all night. The mountains were full of snow. So they 100% knew it was going to be closed.
For the day, well what a waste of time. We parked up on a hill with a museum and a restaurant for 3 hours.. we seen the whole museum in 45 minutes like most of the trip did. Then we were just expected to sit in this restaurant for 2+ hours. we then finally left for Burchtesgarden after waiting around. To be told you will only have 1 hour and half.. by the time we got there it was more like 1 hour and 10 minutes.
This trip was just a waste of time. If I was told when turning up to the bus it is very unlikely the eagles nest would not be possible I could’ve had the choice to not go and I 100% wouldn’t have gone. It was the whole point in going for me.
What a waste of a birthday.
