Monkey Business Tours

Just spent the day with Claudio on a hike up to Eagle's Nest. What a great experience! Our group consisted of a family of nine (no relation to us), my wife, and me. Claudio was so engaging with everyone, from the adults to the family's 6 year-old son. As we hiked up to Eagle's Nest, some of the members of our group had difficulty with the hike. This was no problem for Claudio. He was so patient with everyone and made us all feel like we were part of his family. We were supposed to wrap up by 5 pm, but didn't complete the tour until well after that, all because Claudio put the needs of our group ahead of his own.His knowledge of the area and his willingness to share that information is unmatched! We learned about and saw things you would never hear about on a bus tour. Claudio is the consummate professional and very personable in how he runs his tours. If I could give more than five stars I would. Claudio's is the best tour we have taken yet and I would highly recommend him anyone who wants to have a great experience at the Eagle's Nest! Thanks Claudio!

If you want to do a tour related to the historical World War II and do the Eagle's Nest hike, and spend time in nature, then I HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Monkey Business Tour.The tour guide is very professional and made a great impression with his elaborating stories about the areas we visited.The reason why I enjoyed this very much is, because we visited places that tourists normally don't get to see. FIVER STARS ALL THE WAY!!!

Claudio is the best!!! Really knew his history and explained it in a very digestible manor. The hike was beautiful and Claudio knows some secret spots. Get this guy and your day will be unreal.

Absolutely fantastic tour. From the moment we met Claudio he was one of the nicest, personable, and most easy-going people you'll meet. The whole process was seamless and the intimate group we had made for a wonderful experience that felt like more like friends on a tour than being with a tour guide. The tour was great, and Claudio has almost infinite knowledge on the topics looked at as well as other great insights and facts at his disposal. Overall, HIGHLY recommend any tour with Claudio.

Claudio is an excellent tour guide who is not only deeply knowledgeable and informative about multiple topics, but a lovely, laid-back person with a welcoming vibe. I learnt so much on the tour I had. I loved how he pointed out small details and interesting nuggets of information as we went along, things that I would never have stumbled across or found out on my own. Claudio is also very open to conversation about the history we were learning about, so the whole tour was not only very informative, but also often felt like interesting conversation with a friend!For anyone interested in history or learning about the area, I would highly recommend taking a tour with Claudio.

Highly recommended for the people who want to know about the history of Salzburg. Also, if you are a beginner at trekking then you will get really good tips from Claudio. Moreover, Claudio is a very friendly person and it was memorable trekking for us.

Claudio is a world class tour guide. His knowledge of the region and grasp of the history is unmatched. He’s also a treat to be around. Super funny and fully engaged. Our trek to Eagle’s Nest with him was one of our greatest travel days ever! Spend a day with this man ASAP!

An unforgettable hike with Claudio! So happy with this experience :) I've done quite a handful of tours before but this is definitely top 3!The views were simply breathtaking and I really appreciated all the WWII and history facts that Claudio shared. I found him and Pauline (assistant guide) to be really knowledgeable, friendly and humourous! It truly felt like I was hiking with friends. Thank you and all the best in all that you do ❤️

We hv thoroughly enjoyed and learnt much from Claudio's indepth appreciation and genuine deep interest in WWII affairs. The details he has offered cannot be read from books, but are culminated from his years of research and keen observation. He has inspired us much in his love for the subject and he has renewed our interest in European history. Thank you, Claudio and we hope to see you again to learn from you!

Take this tour!! You’ll love it. We had an amazing day hiking to the Eagle’s Nest and exploring Berchestgarden with Claudio. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the place and had a great collection of footage and photos he put together on a tablet to shed even more light on each site we saw. His passion for the history and landscape shines through.He is a great story teller and brings the significance of Berchtesgaden to life. He’s also an accomplished mountain guide and made the hike totally perfect, tailoring to our pace and style. All in all, the day with Claudio was unanimously voted our favorite day of our multi-week trip. Claudio also gave us tons of tips on other hikes and activities we could in the area the next day, which we were stoked about because we had so much fun with this tour.
