Overview

On this privately guided tour, your guide will accompany you through the sacred, medieval and national socialistic history of Austria. We stop for to take pictures wherever and whenever you like. Melk Abbey, our first stop after a 80 km ride, is the largest baroque monastery in Austria and one of the largest in all of Europe. This Benedictine abbey is also home to Austria's oldest existing school, the Stiftsgymnasium. Then we drive 1 hour further to the concentration camp in Mauthausen and let ourselves be guided through the entire facility with its many barracks, fortifications and watchtowers. We also visit the museum inside and learn all the essentials about everyday life in the camp. Our way back to Vienna takes us to the medieval town Dürnstein, situated in the most beautiful section of the Danube for our last stop. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage area.

Around 200,000 people were imprisoned in Mauthausen and its satellite camps, of which more than 100,000 people lost their lives.

  • Durnstein

    To banish the gloomy thoughts, we want to put some joy in your face with the last stop in the medieval town of Dürnstein, located in the most beautiful section of the Danube valley, the Wachau, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and also Austria's most famous wine-growing region. We enter the village through the archway of the city walls and take time to see the old buildings and shops, take photos and taste local delicacies such as wines, liqueurs and sweets. Beautiful photo motifs are the old town hall, which is often booked for weddings from all over Austria, the Dürnstein Abbey, whose history begins with the consecration of Mary's chapel in 1372 and the view from the fortress to the city and the river Danube. We can also hike the Lionheart Trail to the fortress ruins and learn about the history of England's most famous King, Richard 1st, the Lionheart, who was held here as a prisoner on his way back from the Crusades. We then return along the Danube to Vienna, to your desired end point

Fantastic day tour from Vienna

Published on Jul, 2024

Chris was an amazing knowledgable tour guide. He was flexable with stopping at a roadside church or fruit stand. He translated for us and we were very well taken care of! I would recommend this tour to anyone!
