Wonderful and varied tour.Alenka,our guide,was very knowledgeable and funny in her commentary and was very prompt in answering questions. Would recommend this tour wholeheartedly!
Nice small group of 8. Our TD Burt was very knowledgeable, friendly and most accommodating to the passengers. We made many stops along the way, very pleased with what we saw and learned in 4 hours. Highly recommended tour for sure.
Beautiful lake. Bart was wonderful Hike to see the full view of lake No more no more no more no more
Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful lake and that Bart made your experience even better. The hike to see the full view is definitely worth it, and we appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us. We hope to welcome you back again soon!
Amazing Mountain vistas. Not a hiking adventure but pure pleasure with knowledgeable guide. He even transitioned to Spanish for a fellow traveler.
Dear Guest, Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are delighted to hear you enjoyed the stunning mountain scenery and that your guide made the experience enjoyable and inclusive for all guests. Warm regards, Your Salzburg Panorama Tours Team
Our guide Max was great! That said, 4 hours total is absolutely not enough for the destinations you are trying to see and explore om this tour. We had about 45 minutes at both stops and it is not enough. Specially for a lake. Bottom line: if you OK with just having a glaze (tease) of those beautiful spots, take the tour. If you want to truly enjoy it - don't take this tour. Instead, take a bus from Salzburg and then spend half a day on the lake, take a boat tour, really enjoy it. Next time we here, thats what we'd do. Not recommending this tour

Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your visit didn’t meet your expectations. It sounds like the view from the road wasn’t what you had hoped for, especially when seen from a distance.

If you’re ever in the area again, we’d be happy to guide you to spots that offer a more rewarding experience. We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and hope you might consider giving it another try in the future.
