Từ
Highlights
Discover the true story of the "Monuments Men" on a private tour to the Austrian Alps. Explore the Altaussee Salt Mine, where Nazis hid masterpieces by Vermeer and Michelangelo, and visit the fairytale village of Hallstatt. Unlike standard tours, you have a personal team (Driver + Guide), ensuring a stress-free journey tailored to your pace.
Travel through the UNESCO Salzkammergut region. As we pass emerald lakes and peaks, your guide recounts the race to save Europe’s art in 1945.
The Salt Mine is an adventure. Put on miner clothes, slide down wooden slides, and reach the deep tunnels where 6,500 artworks were hidden. You will stand in the exact spot where miners saved art history from destruction.
Visit the world's most beautiful lakeside village. With a private driver, we avoid distant parking hassles, dropping you closer to the center. While the pro driver handles the winding Alpine roads, your guide focuses 100% on your experience and photos.
