    A great hiking experience. Hotels and luggage transport was excellent. Make sure you have them send you the eurohike app with the appropriate maps. Try to avoid using the very detailed written instructions as you would have your head in the book and miss all the beautiful scenery along the way.

    I loved this tour. So much history, so much fun and we couldn't have had better weather. Warm and sunny. Due to the low water levels, we were unable to do the boat ride from Bratislava into Vienna which was a little disappointing but unavoidable. You move a lot! Most locations are 2 night stays with a couple of 1 night stays but as long as you're understanding of that, it's all good. The hotels were clean and in good locations for accessing the cities. Other than breakfasts, the only included meal was lunch at the local winery which was a blast and the lunch was perfect. Add a little wine... what could be bad about that? Nothing.
