Excellent private Sound of Music Tour with Birgit - We booked a Sound of Music private tour. Our guide Birgit was fantastic. We couldn’t have asked for more. We wanted to pack in as much as possible, and Birgit suggested some extras and we loved every minute of it. She was able to answer every question we asked and also gave us loads of fun facts about Saltzburg and I would really say she went over and above to make sure we all had a great time. We laughed a lot, the sun shone, and from the singing in the minibus to the twirling in the fields, we loved it all. We were a party of 6 siblings from the UK who adore The Sound of Music, and our tour exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much to Birgit from Jo, Sahra, Sally, Vicky, Matt and Jon :)

Amazing, informative tour - It was very interesting to learn all the different “back” stories to the filming of the movie. And seeing all the different locations where filming took place. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and shared a great deal of information I was not aware of. I have seen the movie multiple times, however, after the tour there are so many different things I will look out for the next time I watch.

Ben is the guide - This private tour provides everything my daughter loves to see and know. Ben drove us around and showed us surprises about the spots of filming Sound of the Music and even extra. My daughter loves the tour so much that after we left Salzburg she wanted to go back to have it again. BTW she’s 14, almost 15, and I don’t remember how many times she saw the movie. That’s the reason whenever Ben mentioned or remind her details in the movie she resonated….Thanks Ben.

Boring, too much time on bus. - Awful. Way too much time on the bus. Boring. Don't do it. A few anecdotes about the music. You can do much better in 5 min on Wikipedia.
