This tour was fantastic! I really liked the small group rather than being in a large bus. The tour guide/driver took us through the lakes area on the way to Salzburg and the lakes were so beautiful! The van was spacious and comfortable. We stopped at a place on the way where we were able to use the WC and buy some breakfast/snacks. The tour of Salzburg was very informative and customized to our small group (which was more interested in Mozart sites than Sound of Music sites, although we did see both). We had about 2 hours on our own to find lunch, see sites, and buy souvenirs. The van also had iPads at each seat where we could watch The Sound of Music (which I did on the ride back). We loved our tour guide, Robert. Highly recommend this tour if you are in Vienna and only have one day to see Salzburg.

Josef was a knowledgeable and very personable tour guide. He educated us on more than our tour, but about Austrian culture and life in general. He was a great driver as well! It started out rainy but the sun came out once we got to Salzburg. He gave us a walking tour and he allowed us ample time for us to explore on our own. My family visited the quaint cemetry and visited the Hohensalzburg fortress. A wonderful tour!

Our driver/tour guide, Robert, was very friendly and knowledgeable. And the trip was fun and very convenient, especially the drop off back to my accommodation in the evening. Highly recommended !

Great trip, with a couple of quick photo stops of beautiful scenery along the way! Salazburg is beautiful, the Mirabell gardens where scenes from Sound of Music were beautiful, and Robert gave a highly detailed explanation of everything on the tour. Wear comfy shoes as the walking tour is about an hour and 45 mins and if it’s sunny bring your sun screen! You then have 2hrs 15 to explore yourself, and do as you please. Robert’s recommendations helped me devise an itinerary of what I wanted to do as we walked around, in my free time I went to the food market and enjoyed sitting in the sun by the river, went to Mozart’s birth place, strolled around the gardens again and visited the wine bar next to them. Another traveller said they went up to the art museum where you can get great views of Salzburg which also looked awesome. The iPads in the back of the mini bus were a great touch to watch Sound of Music on the way back, the drive flew by!

This really is a nice and private tour. I was a bit concerned about reviews with lack of guide but we had no issues. Robert was knowledgeable, our group had total 6 people with 3 solo and our family of 3. Enjoyed the guide and information. It is a long drive back but that’s the case with geography (other choice is to spend a day in Salzburg)
