Long trip worth it only on a clear day - Early start and long road journey (adequate stops) were worth it. Although we were blessed with a gorgeous sunny day which allowed stunning views. I wouldn't bother going all that way on dull cloudy day as the visit would be a bit dull with not much to do. The boat trip was gorgeous. Our coach was a double decker where we sat upstairs and felt a bit detached from our guide. we weren't greeted by her so didn't even see what she looked like which led to confusion when it came to meeting for the guided tour!

A Magical Day in Hallstatt – A Must-Visit! - We visited Hallstatt, Austria from Salzburg by car, and such an unforgettable experience it was! The breathtaking beauty of the snow-capped mountains and the serene lake created a picture-perfect setting, and the city nestling in was just magical.
One of the highlights of the trip was the Hallstatt Skywalk. The panoramic views from this vantage point were absolutely stunning, offering a bird’s-eye view of the village and the surrounding alpine landscape. It’s definitely worth the visit!
The Hallstatt Salt Mine Tour was another remarkable experience. The tour was well-organized, providing an insightful look into the history of salt mining in the region. The guided experience, complete with interactive exhibits and even a couple of fun slide inside the mine, made it an engaging activity.
Both the Skywalk and Salt Mine Tour took about three hours, so plan your timing accordingly, especially if you're on a tight schedule.

Great Experience. - First and foremost Hallstatt is beautiful. Also the journey to Hallstatt is breathtaking. In general, this trip is mainly for sightseeing and enjoying the picturesque view. If you are visiting during winter time, you should think about wearing snow shoes. Our tour guide Stefan was a great guy with humour who was more than willing to show us around and suggest us ways to pass our time.

Great trip to Hallstatt - Great trip and guide. The drive to Hallstatt is long but the guide shared a lot of facts about it, making it interesting along the way. The stoppages while coming and going are good too.
There was a guided walking tour in Hallstatt and ample of time to explore the town by yourself. We had a great time and enjoyed it.

The state of Salt - A must visit tour you should get either in combination with the activities the place has to offer or just for the unique landscaping and the church
We booked the one that included the sky walk, salt mines, and the cable cars with the panoramic view, although the guide we had was not very organised so we missed the ride with the cable cars since there were no tickets left by the time we got there, but we did took the liberty of arranging the boat ride on our own
Book in advance your tickets
Get comfortable shoes (boots if you visit during winter. It is very slippery in some parts)
Do not try local snacks if you have the chance to get them in Vienna. They are cheaper and a lot tastier.
