Austria Travel Guide

Austria was spectacular! It really blew us away and the trip and country as a whole exceeded our expectations.

In advance, setting up the itinerary with Zicasso's tour operator was seamless—they were very prompt to change details and move things around to give us the exact trip we had in mind. The interactive itinerary web pages they generated were great—we could look through the timeline and fill in comments with our thoughts/suggestions on each item, making for an easy back-and-forth.

We loved the pace and layout of our trip—it gave us enough time to relax and do some exploring of our own, while at the same time hitting all the highlights of each city we visited. The hotels chosen were exceptional and exactly what we were looking for. All of the guides and drivers chosen by the tour operator did a great job and we liked receiving the information of our guide/driver the night before, with a contact number and confirmation. Throughout the trip, the tour operator checked in multiple times and was readily available to assist with any problems or questions.

Highlights were the city tour in Vienna, seeing an opera in Vienna, Wachau Valley scenery (although in hindsight, we should have spent more time here!), Innsbruck town, and our favorite—a day hike in the Alps.

Zicasso's travel designer did a great job in helping us plan our family trip to Austria. Our agent was very responsive to our needs, paid excellent attention to detail, booked us into great hotels, and helped us plan fun and educational activities to do with the kids.

With the help of Zicasso, my wife and I experienced a once-in-a-lifetime 17-day tour of the major cities in Switzerland and Austria. The trip was exactly what we wanted it to be.

We initially spoke with our travel expert before the trip and came up with a great plan and schedule. Then Zicasso made it all happen flawlessly. The trip enabled us to see and do everything we wanted to, while remaining relaxing. The accommodations were better than expected.

Zicasso always had knowledgeable staff available to answer a question anytime, They provided excellent information to keep us happy and healthy, and the personal tours and events were beyond what we had hoped they would be. It was as though we had friends and family in the travel industry. My wife and I will use them exclusively from this point forward. Six out of five stars!

We had a lot of things that we wanted to see on this trip and Zicasso's travel expert was able to plan everything out so we saw all the highlights we wanted to see. We really enjoyed the different types of hotels we stayed in and, of course, the sights were just amazing.

We had many very interesting and fun experiences we could not have thought of or arranged for ourselves. We had a 26-day stay in Austria, 20 days of which were organized by Zicasso's travel agency, during which we visited five cities. That meant a lot of hotel arrangements; train, museum, concert, and other event tickets; private guides; and restaurant recommendations. Everything was well-organized for us. When questions or confusion came up, our agent was immediately accessible by email to resolve things promptly.

We had a great time in Germany. Zicasso’s tour planner was easy to work with and listened well to our requests when planning the trip. The hotels were very good. Our only complaints would be our typical complaints about European hotels.
