Amazing tour of Salzburg and lakes region - Salzburg is definitely a must visit place in Austria. We didn't know too much about the lakes region but it was a beautiful plus to this tour. Our guide Josef (?) was extremely knowlegeable about this country and we learned a lot.

Great trip from Vienna, through the Lake Country, to Salzburg and back again! - Our tour guide Wolfgang was excellent! He provided many interesting details as we drove from Vienna to the lake country, and from there to Salzburg. The scenery was beautiful, with wonderful views of the Alps! Our tour guide in Salzburg was also excellent, and had a great knowledge of history and a very good sense of humor. She spoke perfect English and was very easy to understand. An important point is that the drive from Vienna to Salzburg is fairly long, about 2.5 hours, and Wolfgang was an excellent driver handling some pretty heavy traffic on the autobahn, including avoiding some very bad drivers! He kept us all safe! Highly recommended!

Ice day trip to Salzburg - We enjoyed a lovely trip to Salzburg, stopping along the way in the lakes region to see the beautiful lakes and majestic Alps mountains. Our walking tour took us through the streets of both the new and old parts of Salzburg, enjoying the local culture and learning the history of the city and the region. A great day overall and recommend.

Good - The rating was not very good but Good which is not a choice. The driver was very good on the way to the Austrian Alps and then to Salzburg 2.5-3.0 hrs. We arrived in Salzburg with a total of 4 hours to visit the city. Disappointed that our guide stayed with us only one hour. The return trip was OK.
