„Sound of Music“ fan or not: Take advantage of your stay in Vienna and visit Salzburg. With your friendly English-speaking guide you depart from your hotel in Vienna in a comfortable private vehicle.
The scenery on the way to Salzburg is breathtaking: You pass by the Vienna Woods, see the peaks of the Alps from afar, and finally reach the Austrian lake district. Take pictures of the region’s gorgeous mountain lakes and villages and visit the locations from „The Sound of Music“!
In Salzburg your guide will take you on an extensive walking tour: hear intriguing stories about the history and the city’s famous inhabitants while you see the most important sights. Among other things you see Mozart’s birthplace, the colourful gardens of the Mirabell Palace (the „DoReMi“ song was filmed here), the cemetery of the abbey of St. Peter (the Trapp-family hid there), the festival area, the Archbishop’s Palace and the cathedral.
After the walking tour you can spend a couple of hours in Salzburg for lunch, to do some shopping or to explore the city further on your own. Visit the Mozart museum or take a ride in the funicular up to the impressive fortress of Hohensalzburg. In the late afternoon meet up with your guide for the return transfer to Vienna.

One of the best (if not the best) day of our trip to Europe. Private tour to Salzburg and the Lakes in the Mercedes Van (we did the upgrade and were very happy). Comfortable, great guide Rui, not in a rush! Spectacular views, beautiful city, enjoyed the sites of the Sound of Music movie…. a really wonderful tour worth every cent. Go for it! Thank you Rui for a beautiful day our family will not forget.
Our two guides, Fleming and Naomi, were very knowledgeable about the local history and tradition, and the way they made the commentaries was engaging and interesting. The pace was comfortable. Overall a good experience and I highly recommend this tour. Thank you Fleming and Naomi!
Absolutely loved this tour. Our tour guide, Flemming, was an encyclopedia of history and Austria. He narrated our tour to Salzburg pointing out interesting places along the way. We stopped at several places along the way to allow us to see some sites. Salzburg was amazing and so was our local guide. Well worth spending a little extra to go with Vienna a la Carte.
Robert was a fantastic tour guide! He arrived early and enthusiastically interacted with our four tired kids. He tailored the Salzburg tour to our wants- stopping to let the kids sample the Lake Mondsee water, showing us all the Sound of Music sights while intertwining history into each stop of the walking tour. His restaurant and cafe recommendations were perfect and he demonstrated a great ability to tell a good story. If you are looking for a tour of Salzburg, or other nearby capitals, Robert is a perfect fit!
Martin was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and extremely helpful. Great day trip enjoyed by everyone. Thank you.
