Book This Tour! Totally worth it.
Claire_M, Mar 2024
James was incredible! He met us at the train station, and we rode a train 30 minutes to this adorable little town outside Vienna. He was knowledgeable and really made us feel comfortable during the trip. We went in the winter so we didn't do the hike and instead he planned a second wine tasting for us! Which I rather prefer anyway! I would definitely recommend booking this tour. Totally worth it to see the country outside of the main city.
Walk among the vines

Fantastic day trip from start to finish. Appeals to everyone, I’m a wine enthusiast, so I was in my element. Scenery was beautiful, lunch was exceptional, wine tasting was intimate and delightful. Would love to do this again in the late summer / early autumn when the bars are open in the vineyards.
Response from Host, May 2023
Thanks so much for this, Rebecca. It was my pleasure to share these landscapes and wines with you! Hope you enjoy the Trockenbeerenauslese!
A magical day!

James was a great guide on our hiking wine journey. We saw some beautiful landscapes and learned so much about Austrian wines. The highlight was our tasting at a private home!
Wonderful tour with James made my trip different
Stella_F, Jun 2019
This vineyard walk and tasting mix did fill an exceptional day of our trip in Wien. James professionally and mindfully selected a balanced choice of track and wine spots. Not spending much effort in hiking, but exercise enough and gradually build up our appetite in wine tasting. Weather was nice, warm with plenty of sunshine and breeze, buried in scenic view that could usually be seen far away from highway when passing by. Alongside James as a companion to chat like years old friend and we are regularly inquired about our feeling whether the pace would be comfortable. During the course of hiking, he explained clearly about the places and vineyards we are visiting. That's relaxing, and we are much benefit from his caring throughout the day. About wine tasting, I would say all those would be top notch of Austria. James was a great help, professionally guided us to taste those wines from different angles. Though not anyway good to score technically, for sure we are wine enthusiast and can tell they suit to our taste, that, would be quite difficult to locate in average bar/restaurants elsewhere. The complexity - from aroma to palate and finally after taste, represent heartfelt make of grape planting as well as wine arts in Wien. The vineyard owners were nice and friendly, brought us through their journey of how those good wines were produced - a priceless lesson. Thanks for James to put together all these, wholeheartedly appreciate. Everyone joining the group should feel like within a circle of friends, rather than a programmed tour with standard itinerary or speech. James is quite insistent in smaller group, I fully support this idea as this allows him to put more focus and care on individual's needs. Look forward to go along with James again. ~~Ben & Stella
Response from Host, Jun 2019
Ben & Stella - thank you so much for this lovely review! It is more than kind and I really appreciate your sentiments and the time it took you to post this. You're absolutely right that keeping the groups small massively improves the overall quality of the experience for everyone involved. I must also comment on your super perceptive palette, Ben! You assisted me to isolate one or two of those flavours coming through in the wines we sampled and I enjoyed comparing our thoughts :-) You were a lovely couple to host, and I really hope to meet you again, either back here in Vienna or perhaps one day in Hong Kong! All the best - James
