A Wonderful trip from Vienna - This trip was amazing from beginning to end. First, I had the luxury of being picked up at my hotel to join the rest of the group with Tour Guide Sofia Mezhul. We were all given a big welcome from Sofia upon our arrival. We made stops along the way to Hallstatt for food, sites and photos including a beautiful castle. Sofia is extremely knowledgeable on the history and culture of Austria--all questions and concerns were addressed and answered without hesitation. Sofia was very helpful, and she answered all of our questions in a very pleasant manner. Sofia seemed tireless. I plan to return to Wien in the near future. It is nice to know that there are considerate, pleasant and knowledgeable guides like Sofia Mezhul.

Hallstatt trip - Sofia the tour guide did a great job! Hallstatt was very crowded but that could be expected from a beautiful touristy town.

The entire organising of the tour as well as the whole experience was very professional & well planned.
Our guide Sophia led the tour extremely well sharing knowledge insights about Austria as well as helping solo guests like me click amazing pictures.

Perfect day trip to Hallstatt - One of the best tours I’ve had in a long time. Can’t think of a single advice for the crew and the itinerary - it was perfect to the tee.
Special words for Sofia who was the heart and soul of the tour. Not only is she supremely knowledgeable, but at the same time highly cognizant of her responsibilities as the captain of the ship. Not leaving a single person behind, while making sure we are sticking to the schedule- she does such a fabulous and thankless job. And her storytelling is very visual and full of funny anecdotes which keeps the tour very entertaining. Ensuring the right amount of volume for all the rows to listen to the commentary, and the right amount of classical music to suit everybody’s tastebuds in music - speaks about how much she and cared for the travelers. Highest respect for her, for being so throughly professional and keeping such high spirits for a tour as long as this one.
Great visuals all along the way, and not just at the end point (Hallstatt). No one should think twice before taking this trip. I’ll do it again!

Worth It - Sophia/Sofia was a fantastic tour guide. She was very knowledgable and had a great sense of humor. Props to her for herding around a full bus of us.

Clovelly in Austria - Busy place. 98% Tourist trap. OK and quaint but expensive shopping and food. If in the area visit but visit will not be whole day.
