We had a great time. Our guide was excellent and very informative. 6 people was the perfect number. Our Danube cruise was beautiful. Would highly recommend.

A great trip! Our guide Marco was awesome! We saw a lot of sights that we would have missed with out the tour. The tour is a must to see some of the sights outside of Vienna. Marco seemed to have a passion for making sure we had a good time. The trip to Vienna was to celebrate our fiftieth wedding anniversary, and it went off perfectly!

This was an absolutely incredible day. Our tour guide Jan spelling? was entertaining and knowledgeable. We tasted some great wines and had a fabulous lunch. Well worth the money.

This is a somewhat late rating - I'm finally getting around to it! I was in Vienna in mid-April 2017 and was hoping to do self-bike rental in the Wachau Valley to do some wine tasting and visit the Melk Abbey. Well, wouldn't you know - it snowed in mid-April! It became too cold to do what I wanted but, alas, I found a Viator tour at the last minute that provided a round trip from Vienna to the Wachau region. It covered wine tasting, lunch in a nice, local village AND a Melk Abbey tour note, you cannot take photos inside the Abbey. And it was for a very reasonable price. I feel I got exactly what I wanted all in one day. I would recommend this day trip to anyone! Enjoy!

Had a great trip with upbeat guide Marco Muzzi. We enjoyed the Melk Monestary very much, especially the museum and the library. The early spring light snowfall was a highlight and made the trip more picturesque. The visit to the old town of Wösendorf was also very scenic. We were well entertained in the two wineries we visited and tasted some great wines. Learned a lot about Grüner Veltliner.

It was so nice to see the countryside around Vienna. We visited several vineyards and tried a number of beautiful wines. Then we had a lovely meal at a nice restaurant and saw more of the countryside. Highly recommended.

This tour met all our expectations - it was fun, informative, relaxing and had a few surprises. James was our guide. He made it feel as if we were being shown around by a good friend rather than a stranger and he ensured that everyone was happy and comfortable. He customized the tour based on our interests and timing - showing us sites we otherwise would have overlooked. The wine tastings were fun and I learned a lot about a new wine region. And, the guided tour of Melk Abbey was wonderful, as was the lunch in the traditional Austrian restaurant. We did so much during the day but surprisingly never felt rushed. Looking back, I can't believe how much we fit in.

We had a wonderful time on this tour. Mario and his colleague well look after us. Nice warm sunny day in winter time. The scenery throughout our trip was gorgeous. Melk Abbey is magnificent. Food and wine were really tasty. Nothing get better than this!

We were lucky enough to have James as our guide for the day and he was a brilliant host.The wine tasting was fantastic and felt as though we were doing it with friends not strangers. Overall a great trip that was excellent value for money, and we’re very grateful to James for such a memorable day.

Our wine tasting tour to the Wachau Valley was wonderful, a highlight of our trip. The scenery was beautiful, the wine and food was delicious. I liked the small group experience, very friendly. The guide was fantastic. I enjoyed the pace, we had time to see the sights and enjoy the day. I would highly recommend it.

Good tour with 3-4 wine tasting stops. As it was end of autumn, early winter, unable to visit actual vineyards, otherwise was a great experience.

Great guide. Trip delivered everything we wanted.

This was a truly lovely day. We were in a comfortable vehicle with a group of 5 other travelers. Our tour guide, Marco, was very pleasant and knew a lot about wine growing in the region which he shared with us via microphone so everyone could hear in the car en route to the first tasting stop where someone from the region walked us through the varietals from the area. There was no pressure to buy anything, but there was a little gift shop which had things other than wine to purchase which was nice since we were going to be travelling for a while after this and didn't want to lug heavy things country to country. We stopped at a small town, Durnstein, where we had the option of walking around town or hiking up to the castle ruins. We went to a lovely little restaurant nearby and had a delicious lunch and more wine tasting. Because it was the very last day of the summer season in the winter, the tour goes to Melk Abbey, Marco drove us to the Danube where we took a sublime boat ride down the river. Like something out of a fairy tale, a few families parents, kids, grandparents got on the boat in traditional clothing lederhosen, peasant dresses, etc. The kids were running around while the adults tried to keep up with them, while sipping beer in the sun, all of which gave the trip the feel of a dream. I can't promise that another family will end up on your boat, but even if that hadn't happened, it still would have been a lovely day. It was also an easy way to get out of the big city of Vienna for the day. If you like wine, even a little, I recommend this trip.

Excellent tour really worthwhile for an understanding of how vineyards produce their wines and also for the wine tasting and lunch at the various vineyards
Review by: Michele G, October 2017
The tour was very well organized and Mario was a terrific guide. It was an easy and relaxed way to experience the wine country. We tasted many wines and lunch at the winery was fabulous. I would highly recommend!

We had Mario as a tour guide. He was excellent!! Highly recommend this tour. Really an ideal way to tour the wineries, see a lovely small town plus countryside, take a boat ride, and share a meal with a small group of people. A nice mix. Even an introverted traveler like me would appreciate this top-notch tour. We have taken 3 viator tours 2 in Zurich and 1 in Vienna, and this was hands down the best of the bunch. Close friends told us this was a must-do, and I would give the same advise to you!!
