A tour, just for you and your group

On a private tour, I'm exclusively there for you. We have a short call upfront to talk through wishes and any specific needs. After that I plan the route to fit the weather, the group and your fitness level. You get a tour that genuinely matches you, without other participants.

Various Options

Your tour, exactly the way you want it

For a private tour, we plan the day together. You can share your wishes when enquiring or during the pre-call, I'll check what's feasible and plan the route accordingly. The tour has to fit timewise: half-day around 3 to 4 hours of hiking, full-day around 5 hours.

  • Sunset in the mountains
  • Sunrise with professional photography in morning light
  • Various routes across the Dachstein region
  • Mountain lakes as a destination or stop
  • Alpine huts as stages along the way
  • Photography for special occasions: birthday, wedding, anniversary

Anything beyond that, we discuss in the pre-call. Some wishes need more lead time, others can be integrated at short notice.

How it works

How your private tour comes together

Transparency matters to me. I always want to know exactly what something costs and when I pay, before I decide. That's why you'll find the complete process here, step by step.

1

Inquiry and pre-call

You write to me with how many people you are and when you'd have time. We exchange emails or talk on the phone and discuss all the details, like your fitness level and your wishes. Once everything fits, I choose and plan the route and send you all the payment information. Once payment is received, your mountain experience is confirmed as booked.

2

The tour

We're out together. On hikes we go at your pace, and on photo tours I take photos along the way. On longer tours, we stop at a mountain hut.

3

After the tour

If you've booked a photo tour, you'll receive the download link within 3 to 5 business days, with 15 individually edited photos per person plus all originals unedited. On classic hikes, there are no photos, here it's the day itself that counts.

Group size

How many can come along?

Private tours are designed for up to ten people. For larger groups, please get in touch, we'll find a solution.

Frequently asked questions

What you might still want to know

How far in advance should I book?

As soon as you know your preferred date. Popular times during the high season from June to September are often booked weeks in advance. For wishes like sunrise or sunset, I recommend at least two weeks lead time, so we can plan the weather more reliably.

What happens in bad weather?

The tour takes place in any weather, including rain. It is only cancelled or postponed in case of a safety risk, for example thunderstorms, storms or fresh snow. The decision is made at the latest two hours before the meeting point. We will then agree on a replacement date, or you will get any amount already paid refunded in full.

Can we agree on specific dates?

Yes. In our pre-call we discuss which date and time of day works for you. I'll tell you whether the date is generally feasible.

Where is the meeting point?

The exact meeting point depends on the route and is set during the pre-call. All meeting points are reachable within thirty minutes by car from the centre of Schladming.

How big can our group be, and is there a minimum size?

Private tours start from 2 people and are designed for up to 10 people. You pay per person; on hikes without photography, children aged 6 to 14 pay half price. There's a price cap for the whole group, so the larger your group, the cheaper it gets per person. If you're more than 10, just write to me, we'll find a solution.

Can we help decide the route and pace?

Yes, that's exactly the advantage of a private tour. You share your wishes when enquiring or during the pre-call, I check what's feasible and plan the route and pace to fit your group.

What if the group has very different fitness levels?

No problem. I plan the route so it works for everyone in the group, and adjust pace and breaks along the way. Just let me know during the pre-call how fit everyone is, and we'll find the right tour.

How many photos does each person get on a private photo tour?

On every private photo tour, each person gets 15 individually edited photos, plus all further shots unedited as a download. So the photos are per person, not shared across the whole group.

Is this suitable for a birthday or a company outing?

Absolutely. Private tours are popular for birthdays, company outings, or simply a special day together.
