Amazing trip to Hallstatt - It was an amazing experience. Bridget was very knowledgeable about the history of the entire region. She was a great driver and was very easy to talk to. She planned out everything quite well for us with lots of great tips. She was the best guide we have had from many countries. Thanks! We will be back!

Worth the drive from Salzburg! - This tour was everything we hoped it would be! We had a beautiful drive to Hallstatt that included commentary of highlights to see along the way. We saw the Red Bull Headquarters! Once we were at Hallstatt our guide made sure we didn't miss anything and made recommendations on what to prioritize and where to get the best pictures. We took a different route back to the hotel so we were able to see even more of the beautiful countryside.

Awesome Hallstatt Tour - My tour to Hallstatt was awesome. The tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable about everything. I originally thought that it would be a small private group tour, but to my surprise it was just one on one with the guide. We beat most of the early bird crowds at the Instagram picture taking spots and a few other noteworthy places in the area. I'm definitely not one for crowds, so I was extremely happy about that. The weather was ok, a bit cloudy, but thats something that can't be controlled. Since I live in Germany, I will definitely return during the summer or winter. Overall, I could not have asked for a better way to have ended my last day in Austria.

Amazing tour, amazing tour guide - I cannot say enough about how amazing our 8 hour Hallstatt tour with Ben was. He is an excellent tour guide who clearly loves sharing his knowledge and enthusiasm for Austria with his clients. This tour was definitely a highlight of our 2 week Europe trip. Our family truly appreciated Ben's deep knowledge of the Austria, Salzburg, Hallstatt and the lake area, his special viewing spots and beautiful stops along the way, great restaurant recommendation and secret knowledge of the best of Hallstatt. He also took so many pictures of our family in front of wonderful sites, making sure we didn't miss anything. I highly recommend Ben and Panorama Tours!

Perfect for a quick trip! - For a quick (check the box) trip to Hallstatt, this is the way to do it! You’ll learn lots about the lakes and mountains on you’re way there. And have a little more than 2 hours to explore Hallstatt. Choose one of the following: the cable car/salt mine, eating at a restaurant, taking a boat across the lake, or meandering through the town. You will accomplish one of these. If you want more time, then spend the night. Going early in the morning was before the crowds.

Not a good value for the amount collected - Guide was good. Value was not there. There really was no touring with us while at destination, once we arrived there we were on our own

Too short time to do anything - We lost an hour upfront bec tour operator didn’t confirm pickup location early enough, and wouldn’t answer phone calls on day of tour. Considering the 3 hrs RT travel time from Salzburg to Hallstatt , it’ll be impossible to see the salt mine, churches and bone museum. We went on a rainy/snowing day and didn’t get to do anything but have lunch. The Heritage Museum & Bone Museum were both closed without advance warning on the website. Good thing the tour operator extended our time in Halstatt to make up for the 1 hour lost time upfront. But we still were not able to do anything but eat lunch in the only 1 restaurant that’s open. Disappointed
