Step by Step

This private tour from Vienna offers a culturally and emotionally powerful experience, taking in some of the most symbolic sites of recent history and Austria's architectural heritage. Unhurried and uncrowded, you will experience a peaceful and enriching day.

You will start with a pick-up at the place and time of your choice in Vienna. On board a comfortable vehicle exclusively for your group, you will drive to Mauthausen, one of the most important concentration camps of the Nazi regime. You will have time to tour the site, its exhibitions and memorials, and reflect on its role in the history of Europe.

After this visit, you will continue to Melk, home to one of the most impressive Benedictine abbeys on the continent. Melk Abbey is a symbol of Baroque art, situated on a hill overlooking the Danube River. Here you can explore its halls, library, church and gardens on your own.

Throughout the tour, your English-speaking driver will be on hand to provide context, suggestions and ensure that your experience is as smooth and comfortable as it is enriching. At the end of the day, you will return to Vienna, where you will be dropped back at your accommodation or at a point of your choice.

    Motorway works lengthened the journey by 20 minutes, but the driver adjusted the time and we saw everything the same.

    Soft air-conditioning and a spacious seat; the stretch to Upper Austria is a rest.

    I was surprised that assistance dogs are allowed; a point in favour of inclusion.

    Comfortable shoes are essential: there is a lot of walking both in the countryside and in the abbey.
