Frequently asked questions

Is this tour manageable with a pushchair?

The old town is easy to navigate with a pushchair, and both the Pöstlingbergbahn and the Grottenbahn are accessible too. The guide is happy to advise on any specific section beforehand.

Are the tickets for the Pöstlingbergbahn and Grottenbahn included?

The guiding fee covers the guide's service; tickets for the railway and the Grottenbahn are bought separately on site. That way you can decide flexibly whether you want both rides.

What happens in bad weather?

The tour is mostly outdoors and on the railway, with the Grottenbahn and the basilica offering dry stretches along the way. In heavy rain, the itinerary can be adjusted slightly.
