Amazing experience with a knowledgeable guide who became a friend! - From the moment Tony found us at the train station to the moment he made sure we were securely in our Uber upon our return, our experience was phenomenal. We enjoyed coffee and conversation as he pointed out site along the journey and discussed those must see things were went to Salzburg for. Given our age and ability, Tony was so patient as we walked through the beautiful streets, offering his architectural knowledge of the buildings, pointing out memorials and snapping photos of us at every stop. We dined at a quaint restaurant that offered authentic food and drinks. We truly appreciated Tony and loved our experience. Highly recommended!

Incredible Experience! - We were so impressed with our tour guide, Tony! From the moment he located us on the train platform to his staying with us at the end when our Uber arrived, he took wonderful care of us. What a lovely surprise to find out that the tour was just my husband, myself and Tony , which provided a lot of flexibility for us and what we wanted to see in Salzburg. His knowledge of the sites was excellent and he made sure that we saw everything on our list. Our lunch at an authentic restaurant offered delicious food and drinks. The entire day was filled with great conversation that we felt like we traveled with a friend. Highly recommended!

Beautiful Day in Salzburg - Victoria was amazing. I was shocked to find it was only my family going on the tour. Truly a private tour with a friendly guide who integrated with us as if she was a member of the family. Knowledgeable and upbeat Victoria comfortably strolled us through Salzburg. It was like walking with a friend who knew how to share the best of our day adventuring through a new land. Truly memorable and worth the expense.

The Perfect Tour! - This tour was fantastic! Although the
weather forecast predicted rain on our tour day, we decided to go for it since it runs rain or shine—and we’re so glad we did. It did rain, but that didn’t dampen our experience one bit. Salzburg was still incredible! The sights and lunch were absolutely amazing, but what truly made the day unforgettable was having Victoria as our guide. She was knowledgeable, warm & kind, and lots of fun to spend the day with. I highly recommend taking this tour—it’s an experience you’ll sincerely regret missing.

Beautiful Day in Salzburg - We were very fortunate to be the only guests for the tour on August 5, 2925. Our guide, Victoria, was excellent and she had a wonderful assistant, Angela. Victoria was knowledgeable about the city and great navigating the transportation. Due to construction, our travel both ways was disrupted with changing either from train to bus or between trains. Many announcements were in German only, thus it would have been difficult for us to navigate on our own. The city of Salzburg is as charming in real life as in the movie! A beautiful day in the land of the Sound of Music. Mozart’s birthplace and the fortress were also very interesting. This tour and day in Salzburg are well worth your time and money.

Great day trip from Munich - We had an amazing time in Salzburg. This was our tour guide Victorias first tour and if I hadn’t known I wouldn’t be able to tell. She gave us a fantastic tour through the city and was eager to answer any and all questions. She even helped us find the best chocolate shoppe in town. Austria is one of our favorite places and Salzburg is a great day trip from Munich. Highly recommend.
