Lower Austria is the cradle of Austrian viticulture, so we want to take you to the beautiful forests & vineyards of the Thermal Region, just south of Vienna. Home to traditionally quaint wine villages and some unique local varietals, we showcase the finest in farm-to-table Austrian wine tours. We offer two different tours, depending on the season: In summer (Apr-Oct), we hike through forested trails and lush green vineyards, stopping en route for an open-air wine tasting and to appreciate beautifully expansive views over the Vienna basin to Hungary & Slovakia. We then continue to one of Austria's oldest wine villages for lunch & a winery visit. In winter (Nov-Mar), instead of hiking, we focus our attention on the past, present and future of Austrian wine by first visiting one of its oldest wine-making institutions dating back to 1141. We then meet one of the region's finest vintners for a wonderfully intimate wine tasting and Q&A to showcase all that the Thermal Region has to offer.

Inclusions: Wine tastings in vineyard and/or winery settings, Live tour commentary provided in English by native speaker, 12km guided forest & vineyard hike with trained first aider (summer)

Exclusions: Lunch

The guide was informative, relaxed and entertaining. The kayaks were easy to control. A good way to see Vienna differently. A great way to cool down on a hot summer day. The swim was very welcome. Other rivers were out of order due to high water levels but the Old Danube is a cut off lake and was not affected.

Very good experience, all the burocracy was done in a few minutes, the bike was ready in 2 minutes. Very good bike, with all the safety and emergency kit. the trip was done in 5 days and i have had the opportunity to use the bike also in Budpaest.
