Even though the weather... - Even though the weather wasn’t great, it had been raining on and off, we had a great time. This is a small group tour, our guide also acted as the driver. He is so good and very knowledgeable, gave us enough time to go around Salzburg on our own. Very much enjoyed it. Highly recommend if you don’t plan to stay in Salzburg.

Great experience that was worth every dime! A special opportunity to visit the ‘home’ of Sound of Music! - We had a great guide, Ulri, and we got to see several lakes on the way to Salzburg. We enjoyed every bite of the local sausages & fresh bread from the local bakery too!

Fantastic day in Salzburg - Our tour guide, Joseph was very knowledgeable and accommodating. He made the day relaxing and informative- we learned a lot about Austria on the drive up and the walking tour in Salzburg was great. Would highly recommend this tour. The personalised feel with the small group was lovely and the car ride was extremely comfortable! The lake region was beautiful and Joseph gave us so many great recommendations about what we could see/do in Salzburg. Definitely glad we picked this tour!

I was expecting far more... - I was expecting far more interaction and guidance on the Salzburg part of the tour specially regarding the Sound of Music part. To be honest it would be the same if I went by my own with a good travel book.
