Exceptional Tour of Salzburg and all things "Sound of Music" - This tour was the highlight of our trip to Europe in April 2024. Our tour guide was most certainly the most knowledgeable person on the Sound of Music and an exceptional guide. We spent four hours hearing about the moving and the making of the movie while he drove us from site to site in a lovely car. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn more about the movie and Salzburg.

Excellent tour of Salzburg highlights - It was a wonderful tour of Salzburg and nearby lakes. Many Sound of Music landmarks were included. We saw the highlights of Salzburg and had free time to shop and have lunch. Recommend the "trick fountains" at Hellbrunn and the showroom at Red Bull as well. Stefan is very knowlegeable and was flexible with our itinerary. The van was clean and comfortable. It was a perfect day!

We had a wonderful time... - We had a wonderful time with Boris as our guide! Enjoyed seeing the sights from “The Sound if Music” as well as many other things along the way!! Boris even made sure to point out all of the Mozart sites in Salzburg since my 6yo is kind of obsessed with Mozart and made sure to leave us time (and good directions) to see both of the Mozart museums in the city while exploring on our own for a bit! Thank you for a wonderful day!!

Amazing, personalized, and caring service. - What a great day with Karl seeing Salzburg and the Lake District. Karl was such a great guide and so much fun- we even stopped by the Lake District for a swim! I highly recommend Karl and this tour with this group- it was a highlight of our trip. We saw the Sound of Music stops and got insider tips on some great chocolates from Karl. Do yourself a favor and if you get Karl- ask him to play some music for you on the ride home!!!

Magical SOM experience - The most memorable parts of the experience were Mozart’s birthplace, the SOM wedding church, gazebo, the Von Trapp’s home, the lake views and the tree lined roadway.

Karl the crazy German tour guide!! - Karl was a fantastic tour guide. We traveled Munich to Salzburg and then other spots of interest. He is personable, full of knowledge, fantastic driver. We were able to see Salzburg in a day, full of fun facts and neat spots. Definitely recommend this tour!!!

Disappointing day! - Our guide, Stephan was training another person. Stephen left us with this untrained guide (that had never even seen the movie, The Sound of Music before!) and he failed to point out important landmarks from the movie - the whole reason we went on the tour! We missed photos of the wedding chapel due to this! We were left on our own several times and we were afraid we would get lost - not exactly what you’d expect on a private tour! Stephen was very knowledgeable but his English was very difficult to understand, thus we missed things. Overall, we were disappointed in our tour.
