A little slice of Bavarian Alps happiness - We loved everything about this experience. The Sound of Music tour met and exceeded expectations. Jose and Ebil made the experience extraordinary. The Slat Mine experience was great as well. My wife did it as a child and was better than she remembered.

This tour was so fun! - My whole group loved this tour! The salt mines were incredible. My only complaint is that there wasn’t only 2 slides. They were so fun. I wish I could have walked back up to them and done them again. The sound of music tour was engaging and happy. Our tour guide brought to life the lives of the VonTrapp family. I’m sad we didn’t get more time to wonder at each stop. Also, we didn’t catch that Austria is a very cash based system. That would have been good to know before we arrived.

The Wonders of Salzburg - Despite the fact that we didn't make any reservations we were so blessed to be able to visit the Salt Mines in Berchtesgaden as well as go on the Sound of Music Tour. Our Tour Guide to Berchtesgaden was Erich and he was excellent. He brought the local History to Life and made it very interesting. We enjoyed visiting the Salt Mines. Upon our return we boarded the next Tour Bus to take us on the Sound of Music Tour. Antonio was our Tour Guide and it was another wonderful and fun experience. Even though my husband left his cellphone on the first bus staff members of Panorama Tours were very helpful in returning the phone the next day. Thank you Panorama Tours for making this such a memorable visit.

Such an enjoyable experience - I hugely recommend this tour. The tour guide, Kylie was so entertaining and lovely. I enjoyed her guide. The tour with the sound of music fans are so exciting. Even now, I recall the places and sing the songs. Such a lovely moment. Thank you

Salt mine tour and Sound of Music - The salt mine tour was the highlight of both tours. Our guide Leopold was so knowledgeable and funny with his stories. He made the whole trip. If you can request him I suggest you do. The Sound of Music tour on the bus was very nice as well. Bridget was the quintessential Maria with her singing and extensive knowledge of the Von Trapp family.

A Must Do Tour - One of the best tours I have ever gone on. Mitch, our guide, made the tour so much fun. Lost of great comparisons to the movie and the real life Marie. I highly recommend.

All day tour - Salt mine trip was excellent, 1 hr of constant education and experience. Guide was fab, very knowledgeable and adding great humour. Had to share bus with Eagles Nest tour so wasted time going there twice. Disappointed with Sounds of Music tour, Antonio was great and informative but felt there could have been more interactiveness,e.g better sound system & lyrics on screens. The video was good but repeated all that Antonio had briefed. Still a good day and worth doing to see and enjoy the history of the area.

The salt mines is a must... - The salt mines is a must see and so if you have kids. It was amazing and kids had a blast. The sound of music was good but if you haven’t seen the movie it wouldn’t be as good. Austria in general is an amazing place
