Wonderful full tour from Vienna to Salzburg with some sound of music too
The entire trip was great. Our guide, Josef, was wonderful. The driver, I believe his name was Marten, was also fantastic. We had a large group of family (14) and they took great care of all of us. The stops were also lovely along the way as our tour was from Vienna to Salzburg. This tour has sound of music stops and cultural stops. This tour does not include the gazebo. So if you want a full sound of music tour then you may wish to book a different tour. The only issue we had was the speaker in the tour van was not great. It was completely muffled for those in the back.
Operator response
Hello Susan,
we are happy that you enjoyed your tour to Salzburg with us. Our tour covers many but not all of the Sound of Music sites in the greater Salzburg area as we have limited time. The Gazebo is not part of the tour. Thanks for letting us know about the issue with tour van's loudspeaker on the day of your tour. This has meanwhile been fixed.

Tour in Salzburg
Julio was just great, i appreciated his kindness, explanations and amability.
The tour in salzburg with naomi was so quick, i think could be more than this.
Generally, the tour agency could inform customers of the closing stores bcoz of the christmas night. All stores were closed on 15h00. Or may be delete completely this tour, it would be fair.
Operator response
Dear Inspire136946,
we are sorry you didn't enjoy our tour as much as we would like. On Christmas Eve nearly all stores close early. That's not only true for Salzburg but also for Vienna. The reason why we offer this tour on December 24th is due to the high demand from our customers.
We are very pleased though that you were happy with your driver-guide Julio. He's a great asset to our company and we very much appreciate his willingness to work that day.
We hope you overall enjoyed your holiday in Austria!

Great day
Absolutely loved this tour. Our tour guide, Flemming, was an encyclopedia of history and Austria. He narrated our tour to Salzburg pointing out interesting places along the way. We stopped at several places along the way to allow us to see some sites. Salzburg was amazing and so was our local guide. Well worth spending a little extra to go with Vienna a la Carte.

Great tour on a beautiful day!
Spent an entire day from Vienna to Salzburg with small group in a comfortable minivan. Both Markus and Noami were friendly, knowledgeable and fun! The tour was perfectly scheduled with 3 stops in lake towns on the way to Salzburg. Very interesting and relaxing. Would highly recommend! Thanks!
Operator response

Terrific Day Trip to Vienna
This was a great day trip to Vienna with added bonus of visiting the Austria Lake Area and St. Gilgen. St. Gilgen is a great bonus to the visit to Salzburg.

Salzburg day trip
Right from the first interaction with Flemming to the drive to Salzburg & back, it has been one of my favorite parts of the trip.
Flemming was not only kind & courteous, he was exceptionally knowledgable & patiently walked us through the entire history of Austria and the war. It was indeed a pleasure to drive with him.
Salzburg is a quaint tiny town with some fantastic views and the Mozart house. Please do not miss that incase you head there.
I fell in love with the Gilget town where we stopped on the way to Salzburg.
Another star was the red Bull HQ pointed out to us by Flemming on our way to salzburg.
Thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the day!
