I loved the whole thing! April was a fabulous guide, and the places visited were spectacular, especially the locations in the Alps.

Our guide Susie was great. No issues at all with her knowledge, sense of humour and professionalism. We had a small group of 5 in a minibus and it was a very cold day. When I booked I was under the impression we would be in a bus and therefore warm and also a better atmosphere with the music, singalongs, etc. Hard to achieve that with a group of 5 and not a reflection on Susie. I appreciate the bookings may not have justified a bus but we passed two other groups all morning, with 6 and 8 people respectively and they didn't include the other private tour groups. The main feedback for you is to manage expectations when the tour is different from what is advertised.

Great itinerary. Multiple opportunities to stop and take photos. David was an excellent guide with so much interesting knowledge. Fun singing on the bus! The only negative was the cafe that was recommended in Mondsee- it had rude staff who took ages to serve people and then refused take away service when time was up for our visit.

A great amount of information provided. Conner and Hacki did an awesome job and made it very fun trying to involve everyone in one way or another.

We loved our tour with Panoramic! Our tour guide was fantastic, singing with us up and down the aisles of the bus. Very informative, and a great chance to see the beautiful Austrian countryside! It made us feel like we were right there in the movie.
