Discover the small town Hallstatt, one of the most enchanting locations in Austria, with this full-day trip from Vienna. The views will take your breath away!
Description
We'll pick you up from your hotel in Vienna, where we'll drive off for our exciting day trip. Along the drive, we'll see breathtaking views of the Salzkammergut mountain district.
3 hours and 30 minutes later, we'll arrive at Hallstatt, a picturesque town located in the Austrian Alps that will enchant you with its unmistakable charm. Did you know that this town inspired the snowy kingdom in the movie Frozen? There, accompanied by our English-speaking guide, we'll stroll through the cobbled alpine alleyways and streets that have witnessed 700 years of turbulent history. We'll also observe the architectural details of the town's houses and church as we explore.
You'll then have 1 hour 30 minutes of free time to have lunch and continue exploring the town.
Before finishing the tour, if you're travelling in summer, we'll say goodbye to Hallstat with a pleasant boat trip on the lake. If you're travelling at other times of the year, we'll visit the Bone House, located in St. Michael's Chapel. This fascinating attraction, known for its collection of more than 600 artistically painted skulls, dates back to the 12th century.
Once our day trip has finished, we'll return to Vienna by bus, arriving at the Vienna State Opera at 8:15 pm.

Upon booking, you'll be shown a drop-down menu with different pickup times and hotels in the centre of Vienna. You'll have to select one of them. If your accommodation is not on this list, we'll pick you up at 7 am in front of the Vienna State Opera.
