We went on a day trip to Salzburg from Vienna during the advent season. Our host and driver was Peter, one of the owners. The entire experience was one we will never forget. Peter was a consummate professional, while being very personable, friendly, and lots of fun. He knows so much about geography, history, culture. We are naturally curious and he happily entertained our endless questions for 14 hours. He took us to the best locations in Salzburg, the most awesome Christmas Market in Austria at St. Wolfgang. White Alligator might be a newer company, but they are highly professional, knowledgeable, and very motivated. It was just my wife and me with Peter on this trip. It is so wonderful having a personal guide and companion to make the most out of your travel time and experience. Thank you so much, Peter!
