What we expect

With a snowy summit scraping the sky, the Grossglockner is one impressive alpine peak. Venture to the base of Austria's highest mountain for a chance to meet marmots, hit the museum or just take in grandstand views across the landscape.

Journey through green pastures and rolling hills and you'll make the steady climb towards the base of Austria's highest peak – the Grossglockner. Arrive almost 2000m above sea level to enjoy striking views across the landscape and the chance to learn fascinating facts on the mountain's past, present and future in the museum. And if you're lucky, you may even...

Superb day made all the better by the glorious weather. Ally was an excellent guide.Enjoyed his sense of humour. He was informative and eager to offer help and advice when needed. Peter the driver did an excellent job. Highly recommend this experience!

A perfect day!! Very lucky with the weather. Alistair was an excellent guide and Peter a safe driver. Just the right amount of stops for photos and exploring the area. Good value. Would highly recommend.

The guide kept us informed all the time. Everything went to plan. We had enough time at each stop and good use was made of the different stopping points. a really enjoyable day.

Good enjoyable day. It was a shame we had so little time there as there was a lot to see. We would have liked another couple of hours on the mountain.

Max our guide and Frans our driver gave exceptional service. Throughout the tour Max was very knowledgeable on locations ,history etc while our driver made us feel very secure on the winding roads. The scenery was stunning at every turn and I have already recommended the tour to others.

This one of those trips where the weather is paramount. I’ve done it twice and been very lucky both times. If you appreciate gorgeous Mountain View’s, this is for you. The weather turned nasty on the way back, but by then all the photos were in the bag. The last time was 34 years ago and the glacier was bigger in those days.

Melanie

The scenery on this trip speaks for itself & the guide was very informative, but I felt that the time spent was not very well allocated. The first two photo stops were fine and of adequate length but we had too little time at the main stop during which most people would also have wanted lunch so did not manage to see everything. The final stop of 45 minutes should have just been another photo stop, or we could have returned nearer 5pm instead of around 4pm. Feeling a little short changed.

Max was absolutely fantastic, great knowledge, great delivery. Deserves a pay rise. ??

Communication for the trip was lacking.We were told to meet at the bus stop in Kaprun but had not been made aware that we were getting a taxi to Zell so we were very confused when a taxi pulled up asking us if we were going to Zell.We looked blank until a German speaking couple intervened and clarified that we would join the coach at Zell.It would have been nice if we had this information beforehand rather than look like idiots who didn’t know what they were doing.No room to write main complain!

George the guide was very knowledgeable and made the journey fun The only one thing I may not have liked as much was once at the top I did find breathing a bit of a struggle due to being asthmatic. Didn't Hinder my experience

A really interesting and enjoyable excursion that offered great value for money. Max was an amazing and informative rep. Wouldn't have missed it for the world.

We found the experience simply outstanding. We were fortunate to do the trip on a reasonably clear (of cloud) day although we still could not see the peak. The overall experience of seeing glaciers, viewing points and seeing marmots was fantastic.

The excursion was as advertised and the guide was knowledgeable. Personally I think the excursion is slightly expensive based on the distance travelled and what’s included but the scenery is excellent. My word of warning would be that if you don’t do this trip in decent weather it will be rather pointless as the main objective is the awesome views.

Julia

Good comfortable coach with guide who was very informative but also very amusing. A little pricey and perhaps a free coffee/tea or soft drink would have then made a little more gd value for the money.

The trip was long but worth it. The guide Georg was entertaining and you felt very safe with Peter as the driver managing all those hair pin bends. The views were magnificent and I would not hesitate to recommend this experience.

The guide was fantastic and the scenery was spectacular. The only thing that let it down was in the last stop when we were dropped at a cafe, the staff in the cafe were very rude.

Excellent guide, extremely knowledgeable and the driver was very capable given the difficult road. Comfortable bus. Excellent day out even though the weather was not as good as it could have been. Worthwhile trip for the scenery alone.

Julie & Brian Newland

The Driver Peter Kaiser was hilarious and couldn’t do enough for us. Max the guide was amazing on our trip to Großglockner Only downfall with trips was that they didn’t include a complimentary drink and snack. For the money it costs this would have been appreciated

It was a good trip though I think a tad expensive. Also why do all the reviews say about not going to the wildlife park like we didn’t but still on the next trip this is still not included in the day trip. Also research needs to be made what restaurants are open before the trip.

We enjoyed the tour but were disappointed that it did not include a stop at the Ferleiten wildlife park as stated in the tour description. You might want to amend this on your website.
