The private guide/driver told us he had not been to Innsbruck in over 4 years prior to our private tour. And we found that neither the tour company nor the tour guide had done research ahead of time. If they had, they would have known that the main item we were there to see (the ski jump and Olympic village) was not open on Mon or Tue. We were there on a Tuesday. If we had listen to the advice of the tour guide about having lunch at the restaurant at the top of the ski jump, we would have gone hungry. Luckily we had lunch at Swarovski with a lovely view of the mountains. As a travel advisor, I will not be recommending this tour company for anything and will let my fellow advisors know as well. We paid a LOT of money for this tour and didn't get our money's worth at all. Just paid for a driver to take us to Innsbruck for the day, we could have taken the train for that and gotten more.

If you´re thing is crystal, than you will love to visit the Swarovski World, where you will find amazing pieces made by them and will be able to purchase almost anything you want at their shop. Close to Innsbruck.

<p>Our driver/tour guide was great and we enjoyed every minute!</p>

<p>Our guide, Peter, was exceptional! We truly appreciated his extraordinary customer-focused service and his friendly and respectful demeanor. Peter went out of his way to make sure that he accommodated my son's and my itinerary requests by strategically planning the sequence of site visitations to maximize our experience in Innsbruck and at the Swarovski Crystal Worlds. I especially appreciated and valued the depth of Peter's knowledge of the people and history of the regions and sites we visited - I learned so much from this tour! Thanks to Peter, our trip to Innsbruck was absolutely enjoyable, educational, memorable and just plain AWESOME! I would whole heartedly recommend this tour - with Peter as its guide - to my family and friends!</p>

<p>The tour guide, Wolfgang, was terrific!!! He had lots of knowledge and stories to share. Great sense of humor, and accommodating as well. </p> <p>Crystal Worlds wa a little disappointing...somewhat over commercialized.</p>

<p>The tour guide picked us up from our hotel on time in Salzburg. We then had about a two hour drive to Innsbruck - which was delayed on the way back due to the traffic jams. The tour guide gave little insights on the surroundings which was super disappointing. Basically he was pretty much a driver - not a tour guide. Watch out... this tour does not include the entrance fee into Swaroski, which cost us an extra 45 euros for three people.... If I had to do it again, I would catch a train from Salzburg to Innsbruck and take the tour to Swaroski from there. You would save yourself a ton of money and a more pleasant and quicker commute to Innsbruck and back</p>

In tanti ci hanno consigliato di visitare i 5 mercatini di Natale di Innsbruck e devo dire che ne è valsa la pena, molto belli.. Dalle due piazze poi si snodano tra le vie e viuzze... Dagli articoli natalizi a vari tipi di mangiare... Le casette fatte in stile, veramente molto bello e poi soprattutto perché con i tetti imbiancati dalla neve caduta qualche giorno prima... Ne vale la pena andarli a vedere
