Tour met kleine groep naar de Wachauvallei met wijnproeverij vanuit Wenen

Wachau Valley was one of the highlights of our Austrian holiday. The combination of rolling vineyards, picturesque villages, historic castle ruins, and the Danube River made for an unforgettable day. Dürnstein was especially charming, and the local wines were excellent. Whether you’re interested in history, wine, or simply beautiful scenery, this is a day trip I’d highly recommend. It’s the perfect escape from the city and a must-do when visiting Austria. The private tour was the best and value for money.

Tim was awesome! He was so knowledgeable and was able to adjust the trip to meet our needs! Be sure to ask for him! What a fun day!

Wonderful wine tasting tour with van (max tour size 8) ride, lunch (not included in price) and visit to the charming medieval walled city of Durnstein. Great guide and lots of wines tasted. Highly recommended.

Great day of wine tasting in a very well organized and planned event. Tastings were amazing and the opportunity to spend time on the river and exploring the local culture was a great added bonus.

Tim was great! Witty and informative. Beautiful spots to stop off! Little more time in Durnstein would have be nice. Pick up from hotel should be included in your price and also some water bottles in car wouldn’t go a miss (especially considering it’s a wine tour). Over all good day but very expensive for what it is!

I would give this trip a “20” (on a scale of 10) if I could! Tim, our guide, was so knowledgeable and fun! We ended up with a small group due to 100 degree heat and he let us set the pace of the day and we never felt rushed! This, by far, one of the best days of our vacation!

We booked a small-group tour of the Wachau Valley, and it turned out to be just the two of us and our driver, which made the experience feel very personal and relaxed. Our guide/driver was excellent—friendly, knowledgeable, and very informative, sharing lots of fascinating history throughout the day. We began with a visit to Melk Abbey. While the time inside the abbey was quite short, as the tour of the abbey museum was not included in the itinerary due to time limitation, it was still impressive to see such a magnificent place. From Melk, we took a ferry to Spitz, which was a lovely and scenic way to experience the Danube and the surrounding area, with castles and vineyards along the way. Next came a wine tasting, where we were offered four to five samples. The wines were outstanding, showcasing the incredible quality of the Wachau region. After that, we enjoyed a delicious lunch at another winery. It was the perfect meal for a hot summer day—fresh, light, and full of flavor, accompanied by a glass of crisp white wine, which made the setting even more enjoyable. Later, we visited Dürnstein and hiked up to the castle ruins where Richard the Lionheart was once imprisoned. The hike was quite steep, especially in the heat, but absolutely worth it—the views over the Danube and the valley were breathtaking. Our final stop was another winery with a view of the Dürnstein Castle across the river, where we tasted more delicious wines while enjoying spectacular scenery. The Wachau Valley itself was stunning—lush, green, and incredibly picturesque. Despite the intense heat (around 37–38°C / 100–101°F), the tour was very comfortable thanks to the air-conditioned vehicle, which was a real relief between stops. Overall, this was a fantastic experience. Great guide, excellent wines, beautiful landscapes, and well-organized logistics. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to experience the best of the Wachau Valley in a single, memorable day.

The experience was worth it and great. The guide was amazing and knowledgeable! We loved and enjoyed it!

Fantastic day! We were lucky to have both Ron and Cade as our guides. They were personable and knowledgeable. Loved the wineries and had a great lunch at their recommendation. Enjoyed the relaxing boat ride.

This tour was fantastic! The highlight of our 3 week European trip! The wine tastings were excellent, and the towns we visited were beautiful. The river cruise was really special. I highly recommend this tour!
