Full-day trip from Munich to Königssee by air-conditioned bus and boat, plus the Berchtesgaden salt mines with miner rides and rafting.
“The tour overall was a good experience. The bus was comfortable and the tour guide and driver were absolutely lovely. (Her name is Hanae and driver's nickname grizzly bear) apologies for the bad memory with names. I didn't have any expectations for the salt mine but it was a fun experience because of the slides, however, I just wish we had more time at the lake instead. I recommend bringing your own lunch to eat closer to the lake and enjoy the views, because the restaurant services there take a lot of time, and considering you only get less than one hour free time at the lake it's not worth…”
Private Munich day trip to Kehlsteinhaus, boat on Königssee, and Fortress Hohensalzburg in Salzburg with round-trip transport.
“Our driver Martin was the best. Very friendly, prompt at picking us up at all stops, his car was spotless and he drove very well. And the 3 locations are great spots and very doable if you go into it with a plan (which you need to have as they are simply getting you from point A to point B). For us, the day was challenging due to torrential downpours that lasted the entire day, but we made the best of it and were able to get a unique experience out of it. Because of the rain, the view at Eagles Nest was completely covered in clouds which was beyond…”

“Sepp (our guide) was right on time for morning pickup at our hotel. He has a great personality and has plenty of interesting knowledge of the area to share. Plus he took care of all the little details so all my family had to do was relax and enjoy. The trip itself was really nice. Lake Königssee is beautiful! And the salt mine tour was interesting and fun as well. A great day and worth the money to do it right. Thanks, Sepp!!!”

Private day trip from Munich to Hallstatt with Skywalk views and the Salt Mine, plus door-to-door transfer in an air-conditioned vehicle.
“We looked forward to the day in Haltstatt. The rain was constant, which keep the crowd down. Trip was supposed to take 2.5 hours but took 3.75. Driver is NOT a guide, but supposed to provide their extensive knowledge of the area, which was none. Major disconnect between tour operator, company providing the driver, and the driver himself - as driver didn't know what the tour was about. Coming back into Germany we luckily had our passports, as they were required. But the driver didn't have his! Made for am interesting time. But luckily the border police allowed him in. Now on behalf of the tour operator, they did try…”
