I cannot recommend a better tour or a better tour guide, Carlos! Everything was fantastic from start to finish! While the weather (and elevator) didn’t cooperate, we made the most of it and really enjoyed our time with Carlos! He’s super friendly, knowledgeable, funny… just a super good guy all the way around and will make sure you get your money’s worth. If we are ever around Salzburg again, he will be our go-to guide for sure! Thank you!

It was a drizzling day with poor visibility which would hinder the vista opportunities of many tours, especially at elevation but this tour was special in other ways. Carlos was likable from the beginning. His love of Salzburg and the surrounding area was obvious. He had an answer for every question. It was clear in the first hour of the tour that he was very knowledgeable. He conveyed his knowledge with great rhythm and tempo as to easily understand what he was trying to convey…just as a good teacher would. I would HIGHLY recommend Carlos as a tour guide for all things Salzburg! It was a wonderful experience. ❤️

We chose a private tour to avoid the buses and herds of people. Luciano, our guide picked us up at our hotel and took us on an adventure. It was a wonderful day. Great views, history lessons, and some details about Salzburg in Hollywood!

Carlos was fantastic tour guide. Very knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. Weather was not great, but he educated us on history and provided photos via IPad from past to show what things looked like before they were destroyed.
