Suggestion of a tour company that goes to Mauthausen

Does anyone know of tour company that would take us from Vienna to Mauthausen?

Although you did not explicitly ask for, I offer you to take the train to Mauthausen in order to go on your own.

From: Wien



To: Mauthausen



(at least one transfer necessary)





For information on the concentation camp:

If you follow Mikey%26#39;s advice and use the railway timetable search you may get an %26quot;ambiguos input%26quot; suggestion for Mathausen. Just accept the default offering of %26quot;Mauthausen OÖ%26quot;. The train brings you to Mauthausen station from where it%26#39;s possible to walk to the concentration camp in, I guess, about 30-40 minutes. As it%26#39;s uphill most people prefer to take a taxi from the station. Allow yourselves at least a couple of hours to look round, though we took a lot longer than this. Be prepared for a very emotional experience.

Thanks. Do you guys know if a tour company though that would pick us up at our hotel and take us to Mauthausen? We did that when we went to Terezin from Prague and therefore we were thinking this would be the easiest from Vienna

I too am loking for a tour company to do the same-maybe there is a Jewish museum in Vienna that we could find out from???
