Bespoke wine experiences, built around you.

Good Trips brings together great wine, the people behind it and the places that make each region distinctive.

Good Trips are bespoke, small-group journeys through Austria’s wine regions, shaped around your interests, the relationships we’ve built along the way and the places we think are worth knowing. Behind-the-scenes access and experiences you wouldn’t necessarily find on your own, with plenty of room to make the trip your own.

Two seasonal starting points. Plenty of ways to make them yours.

EXPLORE AUSTRIA, YOUR WAY

Good Trips starts with a season, a region and a few ideas. From there, we build the experience around you.

Want a morning in the vineyard with the grower who tends it? An afternoon in a cellar that rarely welcomes visitors? A long lunch that turns into dinner, or a deep dive into one grape, one style, one producer? Tell us what excites you, and we'll find the way in.

You bring the curiosity. We’ll take care of the rest.

TWo SEASONS TO BEGIN WITH

For 2027, we’re building Good Trips around these two seasons, with Lower Austria in spring and Styria at harvest. They're starting points rather than fixed itineraries, with plenty of room to shape the trip around your group.

SPRING AWAKENING
Bud burst, and the year begins.

Winter loosens its grip and the vines wake. It is the most hopeful moment in the wine calendar, and the best time to stand in a vineyard beside the person who tends it.

We anchor this journey around bud burst in Lower Austria, moving between the cellar lanes of the Weinviertel and the striking terraces of the Wachau.

HARVEST VIBRATION
When the wine year comes alive.
Harvest is a time defined by anticipation, craftsmanship, community and transformation. For guests, it is a rare chance to meet a wine region not simply as a product, but as a living expression of place.

We anchor this journey in Southern Styria, where vines are perched on steep slopes and harvest sets the rhythm of every day. You come to understand it, and to take part.

A FEW DOORS WE CAN OPEN

Every Good Trip is different. These are just some of the doors we can open along the way.

in the cellar

A look behind the bottle.

Taste from tank and cask, explore back vintages or get stuck into a blending session.

In the vines

Out among the vines.

Budburst in spring, harvest in autumn, or a closer look at the vineyards that shape the wines.

At the table

Good food, good wine, good company.

Long lunches, cooking experiences, home-cooked meals and regional food worth travelling for.

ABOVE THE VINES

A different view of the landscape.

Take to the skies by hot-air balloon or find another way to see the vineyards from above.

BEYOND THE BOTTLE

There’s plenty beyond wine.

Markets, villages, architecture, local culture and the experiences that make each place its own.
