Max was an excellent tour guide, so lovely to have met him. Tour was beautiful, scenic views as you drive. The lake viewpoint was lovely as was Berchtesgaden - I would have loved more time to explore there but we were fitting many places into one trip. Really recommend the tour, comfortable van and a smaller group tour too

The guide was very knowledgeable and humorous. He was also instrumental in making sure that the tour runs smoothly. The views in Berchtesgaden was nice, and it was a relaxing place to walk about. Thank you for a great trip!

Tour was great. Maybe some more facts on the constitution (like 12 people died building it; they had to work summer and winter times)

Guide was knowledgeable and interesting and humorous. Great driver and took great care of our whole trip.

The initial photo taking with the mountain view.. absolutely stunning!
