Will remember this tour for the rest of our lives. - Excellent and the guide made it so much fun. Can’t wait to watch the Sound of Music again to see all the places we went and missed watching at the movie.

Here are a few of our favourite things…The Original Sound of Music tour! - A super afternoon with a lovely balance of movie locations and fantastic scenery. The guide was great and made the afternoon most enjoyable. The song-a-long was great fun too. We opted for the evening meal which was really enjoyable. We would highly recommend this trip.

Wonderful Tour Highly Recommend - I’ve always loved the movie and although my husband isn’t an huge fan, this was a big highlight of our trip for both of us. Our tour guide was very entertaining and we learned a lot about the movie and Salzburg. Dinner was delicious, too! Salzburg is a beautiful part of the world!

Just ok... - The bus ride through the mountains to Mondsee was beautiful. But the tour itself was not what I expected. Definitely do not want to do this trip solo. I was the only one who apparently had lunch included. The turkey schnitzel with spatzel was delicious at Herzl.

Group size as too large - We have used Viator tours in several countries and have recommended them to many friends. This particular tour was a little lack luster and frustrating. The tour company Viator contracted with over sold the trip which had a max of 60 and needed a small van to follow the big bus. We were on the big bus and misled. We weren’t asked if we wanted on tour with 70 plus people. The group was so large it was impossible to hear the guide when we did arrive on location. I guess truth be told the premium tours are superior to these overcrowded and hot buses. There were no outlets or usb plugs to charge our phones. However I asked the bus driver and he did let me plug my phone I to the USB up by him. Unfortunately that meant I wasn’t able to take pictures while riding through beautiful scenery. The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly although she did dictate where you had to sit on the bus. Not sure why that was necessary.
