2.Hallstatt Half-Day Tour from Salzburg

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,033 reviews · 5 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $102

Half-day coach trip from Salzburg to Hallstatt with 2.5 hours in town, optional Skywalk, lake time, and the Bone House.

“We thought Halstatt would be a fun trip. All the descriptions included three things to do once we got there: a funicular up to the Sky Walk, a ferry boat ride on the lake, and the Bone House. We didn't find out until we arrived at Halstatt that we couldn't do any of the three. The funicular was closed for repairs. The Bone House didn't open until the time we had to go back to the bus to leave. And our tour guide told us we would miss the return bus if we took the ferry ride. So there's nothing to do in Halstatt except walk around an old and…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 50 reviews · 6 to 7 hours (approx.)

Bratislava small-group day trip from Vienna with hotel pickup, air-conditioned transport, and time in Old Town near St. Michael's Gate.

“First off, I was told that there would be a tour guide once I got to Bratislava. I felt very bad for the driver because the tour operator did not seem to communicate with him at all regarding what the tourists should do or where they should go upon arrival to Bratislava. If it wasn’t for the driver, the three of us tourists who were on the trip would have been stranded. To top it off, the tour guide did not show up, so I ended up having to pay thirty euros extra to get the city tour that should have been included given the extremely high cost of the…”
